Ford Expands Takata Airbag Recall For Ranger Model

Tuesday, January 16th, 2018 Auto Subrogation

A major auto manufacturer is recalling another set of its vehicles for having faulty airbags. Just a year after it had announced the recall of over 800,000 vehicles for their malfunctioning airbags, Ford has issued another recall — this time, the auto company is expecting the return of 2,900 Ranger small pickup trucks in the US and Canada. The recall was issued after a 56-year-old West Virginia man died due to an exploding Takata airbag inflator. Steve Mollohan was driving his 2006 Ford Ranger when his vehicle got into a minor crash, which triggered the inflators that fatally injured him.
