Had my recall for my side curtain airbags done. But it does not look like they put it back together correctly. Has anyone she had this issue? Just looks messy.

Sure did. They had drivers side not correct and then forced the sliding trim piece into buckle denting it and turned the plastic white where it was stressed. They replaced that trim piece FOC.

got my side airbag recall done last month-good job at MULLINAX in APOPKA,FLORIDA!
AND I just got my YETI/MAVERICK branded cup for my wife-in the mail
I feel bad for everyone having problems with their MAV.My only complaint is that low level brake shudder every month or two-have had it since 4/22 and have 12,000 on it.garage kept too!

I too am sorry fir the problems with this recall.
But I have had zero problems except this recall.

I believe that all open recalls must. be taken care of before you can trade in or sell a vehicle.

A few localities like NYC require dealers selling used vehicles to have any outstanding recalls performed, but otherwise it is generally not a requirement especially for a private party.

There is no requirement for me to get this done at any time. Selling private, trading in, etc.. I would never have this recall done given the amount of dis-assembly I’ve seen that is required to correct. No doubt its been done successfully a ton of times, but its just not something I’m gonna bother with.

I heard TOO many similar stories

 

[Takehold67]

But I was trying to do the right thing.
It bit me in the ass.
Now with them scratching the dash as they did.
The fight is on.

 

[Azmig88]

I think I will do the wrong thing and NOT change the airbags.

I’m sorry you, and others, had a bad experience

 

[Takehold67]

Yeah me too
That could be the best thing

Just got my airbag recall done. I assume they have to drop the headliner and pull the a pillar trim to do it? Both are covered with smears of grease all over. Pretty damn disappointed with the care taken. Looks like dealer's going to be ordering a new headliner and pillars. Footprints all over door sills front and rear, and spot on driver's seat cushion. Rice Ford in Warsaw IN. FIrst mav they've worked on. If anyone has the full repair procedure for the recall, I'd sure like to read it.

A trained professional mechanic? What a shame
