"the driver airbag light keeps going off and on. i went to ford dealer shop to fix it. only shortly after it came back on. i tried different tricks online and they dont last long. this is a common issue among ford focus owners. the connection plug from airbag to the steering wheel is bad and it just loses connection from time to time. focus owners cant just diy sensitive parts like airbag to temporarly fix it nor can we spend big bucks to visit dealersshop everytime. they charged me $140 just look at my car. and told me $700 for airbag replacement, when all that needs replacing is the faulty connecting plug. ford knows this but is getting away with jeopordizing with customers lives for money. please make this recall issue so ford will fix for all focus owners before people dies from this well known focus issue because the driverside airbag failes to deploy. please."

"in dec. 12-23 a deer landed in front of us as we were driving on a on highway and going about 50 mph. deer damaged hood radiator etc. biggest concern . both airbags deployed. the powder. right after the initial impact i said open the door open the window cuz the dust was flying around the car and i believe i inhaled some in my throat up my nose that was really bad . the dust smells bad irritating eyes throat. as a couple days went by. throat very sore coughing off and on. ? the chemicals ? toxin,, can they cause problems later. inside both nazal passages very crusty and dried blood. small skin burn on mid nose. also headaches , feel dazed, hair and face had a weird smell , also severe ringing in ears. i am extremely concerned if this vehicle has had issues with toxic chemicals and what help can i get to resolve this and i am concerned. the police came rescue came we a grateful we were able to walk away but sometimes problems occur a few days later. i am extremely concerned about the respiratory impact and irritation if the chemicals can cause problems later. on 12-25-19. i just dont feel right. headaches also respiratory and throat concerns."

"i was going about 10 mph through a city street intersection when i ran over an uncovered water valve pipe in a depression similar to, but smaller than, a standard manhole well. each left tire ran over the uncovered water valve. there was a loud pop, and i blacked out. the left rear tire had blown out after the left front tire sustained damage that resulted in a flat tire shortly thereafter. also, the air bag in the left side of the back of the driver's seat deployed and hit me in the head, causing me to black out, and producing amnesia and other mental symptoms that lingered for several years. in addition, i suffered neck and back injuries from whiplash. the air bag should not have been triggered by an under-wheel impact at such a low speed."

"while having tires mounted and checking the reason for illumination of the instrument panel airbag light the dealership discovered that my front passenger air bag was defective. i called ford and was advised that my vin number was not part of the recall and that they would contact me in 30 days"

"passenger side airbag warning light comes on and off , but mostly stays on for a prolonged period of time. and for no obvious reason, it has been doing this for quite a long time. being in motion or sitting still doesn't seem to change the pattern nor do rough roads vs smooth roads. is this takata related ?"

"air bag indicator light on dashboard was intermittent at first depending on temperature and humidity, but for past two years it has been on constantly. have checked wiring harness underneath front passenger seat since i was told it was a loose connection causing the light to come on. this seemed to fix the issue at times, but no longer does."

"while driving 70 on the turnpike the driver side side airbag deployed out of the seat without any type of impact or accident causing it to do so. the deployment caused numerous injuries. there are no signs of any damage to the vehicle that would have caused the airbag to deploy. responding officers/deputies did not file a police report because there was no accident. the ford collision center cannot find the reason for deployment and the sensor box is being shipped to ford for investigation. the car remains i repaired."
