Ford worked on my Ford Fusion 2012 repaired air conditioner on July 7, 2017, but air went out again on September 6, 2017. Ford dealer refuse to fix the reoccurring problem. In addition, there is a recall on the airbag, but Ford refuses to fix the defected air bag. There is a possibility that the air bag may explode causing injury. While driving I can smell a burnt odor was coming from the air bag. Took vehicle to change the airbag on Sept 6, 2017, but Ford refused to fix the defected air bag, and would not give me a loaner vehicle.
