MB5Z-78611D11-B is the Ford part number for the Air Bag Module. On the 2020–2025 Ford Explorer this is the factory-fitted left seat airbag, carrying the same part number the dealer orders. An airbag is a pyrotechnic part: it ships by ground freight and must be fitted by a qualified technician.
Every row the Ford catalog lists for MB5Z-78611D11-B.

20 recalls on record with NHTSA, checked 27 Oct 2026. 1 of them concerns a restraint system.
A recalled restraint part is repaired free by a franchised dealer. We do not knowingly list parts from a recalled lot; check the campaign above against the donor VIN before fitting.
We price new OEM parts from the manufacturer's own catalog and pass on our dealer discount, so the figure above moves when the manufacturer's list price does. Fitting a left seat airbag on the 2020–2025 Ford Explorer leaves the airbag module in a crash state: it has to be reset and the fault codes cleared before the system will arm again. KarmanAuto resets Ford airbag modules by post, usually the same day they arrive.
