2/23/11 Ford recalls 144,000 F-150 trucks due to airbag problems

Schedule a Free Consultation

There has been a recall of the 2005 and 2006 model Ford F-150 pickup trucks is due to inadvertent airbag deployment. There have been no deaths, but injuries have been reported.
Ford said that it would recall 144,000 F-150 pickup trucks because front-seat airbags could inflate without the vehicle being involved in a collision.  The automaker said it was aware of 238 incidents of inadvertent airbag deployment in the trucks, causing 77 injuries but no deaths.
Ford said the inadvertent deployments that had been reported were preceded by the illumination of a dashboard warning lamp indicating that the restraint system should be serviced.  Ford said that in most instances the airbag went off within the first few seconds after the engine was started. However, there were some reports that indicated that the vehicle was on a public roadway when the deployment occurred.
Ford will notify owners in early March and ask them to bring their vehicles to their local dealer for replacement of the wiring harness. This repair takes about half of a day.

TESTIMONIALS

Best law office ever! I have been going through a case and been smooth sailing from day one because of the amazing attorney and staff that has dedicated their time for me.
Tiffany Dalton
My family and I came to Terrell and Hogans office about 4 years ago after meeting with 3 other firms here in Jacksonville. My family and I suffered a great loss, our father. He was killed by a physician's negligence. Mr. Hogan's hard work and commitment changed the course of my family's life. We will all be eternally grateful for their passionate work and their personal dedication to do the right thing.
Aaron Cooper
I was referred to Joe by a family friend and reached out to him regarding a death in my family. After meeting with him on various phone conferences he was very passionate about helping me pursue my case and also very informative every step of the way in ensuring I was comfortable with all decisions. As the close to my case has come about I am very appreciative to have been able to work with Joe and the others at Terrell • Hogan.

Former Client
Over a period of 3 years Chris worked on our case incurring several hundred thousand dollars in expenses for our case, yes hundreds of thousands of dollars in just expenses they paid for in advance, something we could have never done. I can't even imagine the number of hours Chris spent working on our case. In the end Chris finally reached the goal we all hoped for. Chris changed my family's life forever and selecting their firm to work with was a defining moment in my family's life.
