Ford Takes Takata Airbag Recall Nationwide, Adds Additional 500,000 Vehicles

(saguarosally) For the second time this month Ford has announced plans to expand its recall of vehicles equipped with Takata-produced airbags that may spew shrapnel at passengers upon deployment. Not only does the latest recall cover nearly 500,000 vehicles, it finally takes into consideration the National Highway Traffic Safety Administrations’ request to include vehicles currently registered nationwide.  The Associated Press reports that Ford agreed to expand its recall by 447,310 vehicles in all corners of the United States. Ford’s expanded recall covers model year 2005 to 2008 Mustangs and model year 2005 and 2006 GT sports cars currently in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. In all, officials with the company say the tally of Ford vehicles recalled because of defective airbags now includes about 462,911 in the U.S.
