DEARBORN, Mich. – Ford has lost track of some older Takata air bags that can explode and hurl shrapnel, so it's recalling more than 154,000 vehicles in North America to check for them.
The company on Thursday issued two recalls, with the largest coming because Ford can't find 45 obsolete air bags that may have been installed on some old Ranger pickup trucks.
The company says the air bags were not purged from the stock of service parts and could have been used in crash or theft repairs.
This recall covers just over 153,000 Rangers from the 2004 through 2006 model years. In a smaller recall, Ford found just over 1,100 vehicles that may have gotten obsolete Takata air bags in collision repairs.
