Ford Recalls Mustangs

Ford is recalling 400,000 Mustangs model year 2005-2008. If you own one, I suggest you take it in to your nearest dealer. Here is why:

"the passenger-side airbags may pose the risk of neck injury to small women or large children riding in the seat with the safety belt unattached."

I think it is a good thing for Ford to do this "voluntary recall" and that it is as easy as reprogramming the airbag software. However, if you are actually among this risk demographic, then you need to reprogram your brain software. Is it not common sense for adults to ensure that children are wearing seat belts? I think the risk of not wearing a seat belt poses a bit more than "the risk of neck injury".

I guess if it was a specific safety standard, then Ford needs to comply, but it is a shame that someone would still be able to sue a car manufacturer for injuries or death to their family when the person wasn't wearing their seat belt.
