Known issues on the 1994 Escort. Two recalls are on federal record for the 1994 car. One covers a driver-side air bag module whose inflator canister was inadequately welded, so the seam could separate in a collision and expel hot gases instead of deploying the bag properly. The other concerns aftermarket replacement lamps missing their amber side reflectors. Owners have filed 341 complaints with NHTSA, and the largest groups are seat belts, air bags and engine and cooling. Restraint diagnostics, air bag module handling procedures and engine service specifications are the parts of this manual that record points toward.
