Ford Warns of Ranger Danger, Will Issue Recall

Ford is telling owners of about 2,900 Ranger small pickup trucks not to drive them after finding out that an exploding Takata air bag inflator killed a driver in West Virginia. The company determined that the truck’s inflator was made on the same day as one that exploded and killed a South Carolina man driving a Ranger in 2015. Ford is now issuing an urgent new recall for Rangers with inflators made on that day because of the immediate danger from this lot of inflators.
