Removing Driver Seat is Battery Disconnect Necessary?

[DieHarder]

Yeah, you should. Had mine done (driver/passenger). Dealer takes care of it for free. If they go off during an accident parts of it can serious hurt or kill you (like sitting in front of a claymore)... If you haven't replaced them good idea to do it as soon as you can.

As far as the battery disconnect I have removed them without doing it. All in ignorance of course. I didnt go on line and ask, I just got the job done. Do i feel lucky now? You bet.

airbags don't go off if the car isn't turned on

They have mobile techs who can come to your house or job, takes less than 15 minutes and this is what they do. The tech they came to my house said all he does is airbags. In fact i have them scheduled to come do the airbags in my truck soon.

BOTH airbags ??? I recived a recall here in Germany - for the passenger airbag ( so my wife is safe now ). I think I will call the Ford Dealership as soon as possible.

Thanks for the information !!

I got my driver side done first, then three months later the recall came in for the passenger side.
