Newbie first questions
Hi,
i am from Germany i live near Hamburg. I drive a 2004 Ford F150 XLT. I think it is the elevent generation of F150. My airbag lamp is on and as i read it is a typical Ford F150 problem. What should i do, change the SRS module? Where is it located? My other question is: Where is the best online store to buy parts for my F150? It is hard to get parts here and if you get they are expensive, so i have to import myself some parts. Thank you all. Dirk

If I remember correctly that light was a recall of a clock spring in the drivers side airbag which could deploy at anytime. I had that dame thing to my truck. Did u get a letter in the mail from ford? You should be able to take it in and get fixed free.

I have already contacted Ford Germany, they say that there were no recalls for my truck. I do not trust them. Can anybody check if there were recalls for my truck: 1FTPX12594FA23286

You do not need carfax for the recalls. Look at:
If you would like to check for recall information in the future please visit:
- go to www.fordowner.com
- select "Recall Notices" under "Service" tab
- enter your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
This wrotes Ford USA to me and it works!
