What Owners Should Do: Ford Philippines is providing two ways to make the repair process as seamless as possible:

1. Check your VIN: Owners of the abovementioned vehicles can visit this website and enter their 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to check if their vehicle is affected.
2. Schedule an Appointment: Owners can then schedule an appointment with their preferred Ford dealer through Online Service Booking or by contacting the dealer’s Service Department during their respective business hours. The inspection and repair can also be performed by Ford’s Mobile Service Vehicle (MSV) available in select Ford dealerships.

If found defective, the airbag inflator will be replaced by Ford dealers for free. The expected completion time of the repair is between 2 to 3 hours.

Ford Philippines has successfully replaced Takata inflators in the last few years, with this re-issued campaign aimed at encouraging more owners to take immediate action to ensure their and their family’s safety.
