Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Air bag light waring light came on, indicating that the air bags are no longer working. initially the air bag warning light would come on periodically and then go off for weeks at a time. even though this is known problem the dealer stated the only way ford will install the wiring kit 3l2z-14b455-ab, that fixes the problem, is if the vehicle has less than 50000 miles on it. i had to pay them to install the fix kit, because they stated that the air bags would not work without doing so.
