Is it safe to drive a Ford Contour with a bad temperature sensor?
As long as your vehicle isn't showing signs of over heating or any other indications that something is wrong with the cooling system. Don't drive in stop and go traffic or keep the vehicle idling.

Is a safe to drive a car with a bad airbag sensor?
If the sensor might allow the airbag to deploy while driving with no collision, that could be deadly.

If your airbag is not in danger of deploying unnecessarily, your car is safe to drive, just get the sensor repaired as soon as you can.
