I know for a fact where mine was built but im going to have to check the date

I'm good mine was built in April 2004 at Norfolk Va.

x2 same here! 4/04 Norfolk Apr 16th 4:24am.

Us Norfolk built guys got lucky, especially in '04. Still good parts, like window regulators and such. No fuel injector or brake issues like the '05 - '06 Michigan trucks.

So how do I know if my truck is not effected?

Mine was produced in 04 at Dearborn, Mich.

You read the first post. :jester:

Ford spokesman Wes Sherwood said in a statement Wednesday that the recall covered trucks built at the Norfolk, Va., assembly plant from November 2004 through June 2005.

Actually...

Sherwood said the majority of the complaints involved trucks built during the first shift of production at the Norfolk plant and the rates of air bags accidentally deploying were much higher in trucks built at the Virginia plant than those built at plants in Michigan and Missouri.

So it could happen...

That sucks... but I'd rather they recall them instead of having an airbag go off in my face!
