NHTSA recall 96V090000
Air Bags · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: The supplementary air bag inflatable restraint caution label located on the driver side sun visor does not contain the statement, "do not install rearward facing child seats in any front passenger seat position." This does not comply with the requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash protection."
Why it matters: Consequence of non-compliance: operators could fail to notice and heed the warning label.
The fix: A new caution label, with installation instructions, will be sent directly to owners. Owners can install the label or, if they wish, can have their dealer install the label for them.
