2 recalls across 5 model years
The Ford Taurus X has 2 recalls, both affecting the driver's frontal airbag on 2008-2009 models, where the second stage of the airbag can fail to deploy correctly in a high-speed crash, reducing the protection the airbag provides to the driver.
Both recalls address the same underlying issue: the driver's frontal airbag second-stage deployment does not function as intended during a serious collision. On 2008-2009 models, the airbag can inflate improperly during that second stage, meaning the cushion may not fully or correctly restrain the driver at the moment it matters most. The 2008 model year is the subject of both filings, with the defect traced to an assembly error in the airbag itself.
