Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Ford is recalling certain 2010 Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles, as well as 2010-2012 Lincoln MKZ models that received a replacement passenger air bag under previous recalls. The issue involves a bracket that secures the air bag inflator, which may deform in a crash and cause the gas to leak out, preventing the air bag from inflating properly. If the air bag fails to deploy during an accident, occupants face an increased risk of injury.
Ford will notify owners and replace the passenger air bag module at no charge through dealerships. The recall began on November 21, 2018. To arrange service, affected consumers should contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 and reference recall number 18S34.
