I just read this last night, so I went to my dealer today. They had one part in stock that they had ordered for some guy that keeps putting them off about bringing his car in. So they gave me his part and reordered another one for him. They had the car for about 3 hours. Not bad for a walk-in with no appointment.

The news outlets are saying the MY range has gone from 05-08 to 05-14. So pretty much any S197 Mustang will most likely need the recall.

Wonderful. Well, so far my VIN is not showing up on either linked site. It's a '13.

So do they replace the entire airbag and cover?

Or just the unit behind it?

I have a 2010 steering wheel retrofitted to my 2007, don't want the old badge back.

I think someone said it is just a cartridge.

Yea I was all excited because I thought I would get a new steering wheel badge. I found an internal guide for the service and they took the cover off and replaced the actual igniter

Darren just doesn't want to put the miles on it. Not like his air bag needs to work anyways :/.

Guess I better look into this and see if my '14 GT is affected.

Hey Brian, Let me know when I can schedule Pepper for this. I almost did online last night, but was not sure how your parts inventory would be and figure you are checking now that we are on the list =].

I also have a ticking noise on the passenger side once the car is driven over 30 minutes. Sounds like an exhaust leak...

Either that or take Pepper in trade for a 2015 or 2016 400A Ruby Red :Good or Bad:

Just checked my '11 and the website says this.....so far.

"There are currently no field service actions listed for your vehicle."
