Just a heads up. The NHTSA issued this morning a new recall campaign including MANY more Ford Rangers, Mustangs and GT. Looks like nearly all 2004 thru 2014 of these models are included now, over a million. So if yours was not included before, you might should check again.
The notice also admits that replacement may not solve the problem and may require replacement again once the real problem causing the issue is found.

I went on The site and plugged in my VIN and it said my Drivers side airbag only! So, I called the local dealership and they ordered the part as it was on back order and then when it arrived I took it in and they did it up withing a few hours. I just wish they had replaced the center emblem too!!!
Which dealer did you take it to?

Randy, I'm taking my GT to Ken Grody in Buena Park on Monday. Was told it's a very simple job. Talked to Mike Baik at service and ask him to order the part in advance. He scheduled the work to be done while I'm there.

I have 4 cars with this recall needing to be taken care of. I read on here somewhere that someone could come out and tae care of it and avoid the dealership. Anyone have a contact number?

You should work it through the service manager of a local dealer. Remind them that it is in the recall notice. With 4 vehicles I wouldn't expect they will balk.

My late build '06 is now showing up with the driver's side only.
There is a large note in red however, saying "Recall INCOMPLETE. Remedy not yet available".
2013 Shelby included as well, driver's only with same big red disclaimer.

Yep, mine now shows up with two recalls, one from Dec 2014 (14V802) and now one from May 2015 (15V319). Now I'm just going to wait and see what happens.
My Dodge pickup was added in the last round.

Just had mine done today at my local dealer. Driver's side only. Took about 10 minutes to do. Simple, nothing to it. Of course the mechanic said before I left, "let me hear it when you leave". I obliged him.
