FORD FESTIVA Recalls

The Ford Festiva has 2 recalls, both affecting the 1990 model year, with the more serious involving front seatbelt buckle release buttons that can crack and shed plastic fragments into the buckle mechanism, causing the buckle to fail to latch or release properly in a crash. The second recall covers the seatbelt warning light, which can fail to illuminate when the ignition is turned on in cold temperatures, leaving occupants without a reminder to buckle up.
