CarComplaints.com Notes: The Freestar was introduced in 2004, but it was essentially just a rebranded Windstar. While there was a redesign of the interior and exterior, the Freestar still inherited some of the design flaws of its predecessor.

Passenger side air bag light intermittently turns on and off when a person above the weight requirements is seated in the passenger seat. This can occur either when a person is shifting in the seat or when they are stationary. This has occurred multiple times with various passengers. There appears to be no rhyme or reason as to when it occurs. This is a serious concern of mine because if an accident occurred while the light is on, turning the airbag off, the result could be serious. September 5, 2005 was the most recent occurrence.

Air bag light comes on intermittently. Dealer cannot duplicate the problem. Also, doors will open suddenly. Manufacturer stated the vehicle's defects do not warranty a new vehicle.
