Damn near $100k for a pick-up and I have these big ugly decals that Ford's lawyers tell them to add.

Is there any way to remove them without damaging the fabric?

No one going to mention the big ugly garage door opener when you got 3 built-in buttons right there?

In today's world, I'd worry about the next owner doing something stupid, and I get blamed because I removed the sticker that said "Don't drink battery acid."

That is, if I didn't keep vehicles for 20 years

Those stickers have been there since the 1990s.

Stickers are in Ford's DNA.

Back in the 80s, Ford had a problem where their automatic transmissions could jump from park to reverse just by bumping the lever. One guy was able to make it happen just by slamming the door. Instead of a recall with an actual mechanical repair, Ford was allowed to distribute stickers for the steering wheel that was basically a warning that the car might jump from park to reverse.

That's a damn good point. I am not without blame myself. That opener in the picture is for a gate but the gate doesn't recognize the signal and hasn't for about 5 years now but I keep transferring that remote to whatever I am driving.

I do t think it is lawyers. I think they're pretty much standard for trucks and SUV and vehicles with air bags across the industry.

Quote:

Cars made on or after February 25, 1997 are required to have permanent airbag warning labels affixed to the sun visor by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The labels are not decals and remain in the car for future owners. They are designed to alert passengers to the potential risks of the airbag system, particularly for children.

The non-removable tags on children's toys annoy me way more. Ridiculous that a plush bunny needs to have a nylon CE tag stitched-in. Thanks Europe.

I removed the visor. Placed it on an ironing board wrapped in a dish towel. Used iron on medium heat. Label pealed off easily.
