2008 FORD TAURUS X Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2008 Ford Taurus X has two recalls, both concerning the driver's frontal airbag, which can malfunction during the second stage of deployment in a high-speed crash, either inflating improperly or failing to deploy at all. Both recalls describe the same underlying defect: an assembly error affecting the driver's frontal airbag that causes the second deployment stage to behave incorrectly. Depending on the specific vehicle, the airbag may over-inflate in a way that increases the risk of injury, or it may not fully deploy, leaving the driver without the protection the airbag is meant to provide in a serious crash.
