Lincoln Recall 11S18: Inadvertent Driver Air Bag Deployment
2006 Lincoln Mark LT
The driver side frontal air bag could inadvertently deploy increasing the risk of injury or loss of vehicle control if occurring while in motion.
Air Bags — Frontal — Driver Side — Inflator Module
- Summary
- Ford is recalling certain model year 2004-2006 F-150 pick up trucks as well as certain model year 2006 Lincoln Mark lt vehicles. If the clockspring jumper wire comes in contact with the driver side frontal air bag lower horn plate, the wire insulation may become chafed, creating a potential for a short circuit. If this occurs the air bag warning lamp may illuminate indicating that service is required.
- Actions
- Ford will notify owners and instruct them to take their vehicles to a Ford or Lincoln/Mercury dealer to have a new clockspring jumper wire installed that incorporates a protective mesh cover. Repairs will be performed free of charge. This safety recall began on some vehicles in March 2011. The recall campaign on the expanded population is expected to begin on or about May 9, 2011. Owners may contact the Ford Motor Company customer relationship center at 1-866-436-7332.
