    • Recall Announced SEPTEMBER 03 1997
    • NHTSA Reference #97V145000
    • Number Affected 600

    Summary: Vehicle description: Passenger vehicles equipped with 1.9L engines, built at the hermosillo assembly plant and originally sold or currently registered in Arizona.

    Consequence: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source can result in a vehicle fire.

  • AIR BAGS:FRONTAL Recall for 1995 FORD ESCORT

    • Recall Announced NOVEMBER 10 1994
    • NHTSA Reference #94V218000
    • Number Affected 240

    Summary: The driver side air bag module can have an inadequately welded inflator canister.

    Consequence: In the event of a collision, the weld seam can separate, causing the air bag to fail to deploy properly and hot gases to be expelled from the back of the steering wheel. This can result in an increased risk of personal injury from the hot gases and the air bag failure.

    Summary: Two bolts that attach the passenger side air bag supplemental restraint system module to the instrument panel are missing. In the event of a frontal impact, the module can come out of the instrument panel.

    Consequence: This would not restrain the passenger and would result in an increased risk of injury.
