Takata recall: in july 2016, i received a safety recall notice 16s26 / nhtsa recall 16v-384. recall is for the front passenger airbag. i have called the ford dealership multiple times to schedule replacement, replacement has not occurred as they state "part" not available. it is unacceptable that replacement has not occurred. i have not experienced an accident that would trigger airbag - thank god! is there a way of getting an immediate replacement? i have called ford customer service with no results.

Takata recall. numerous delays by the ford motor company in securing a permanent fix for the passenger airbag recall have left me with a car of limited use. repair parts for priority group 6 were supposed to be available late 3rd quarter 2017, but the 5th amendment to the cro delayed this to late 1st quarter 2018. adding to this, ford notified the nhtsa in november 2017 that further delays will be required. at the current time it is unknown when ford will have a permanent fix ready for implementation. ford's letter in december 2017 now indicates it is unsafe for occupants to sit in the passenger seat, making the car only partly usable. it does not appear to me that ford is resolving this issue in a timely fashion, and now my family's safety in the car is questionable. due to the multiple delays, ford should allow owners to request a temporary, like-for-like replacement at no cost to reduce the risk of failure until the permanent fix is available. this would also restore full functionality of the vehicle by permitting use of the passenger seat. this temporary fix would be ideal for my situation and i feel ford and the nhtsa should permit these repairs on a case-by-case basis. thank you for your consideration with this matter.

Safety recall notice 16s26/nhtsa recall 16v-384. this recall is a year old and nothing has happened to fix the problem. this is very unacceptable as it relates to safety and enough time has transpired.

Takata recall it has been over a year since i was notified of the recall. they should be able to replace defective item or offer an alternative solution. this car has been a single passenger vehicle since the recall notice was received. this has made it difficult commuting to work and taking the kids to the extra curricular activities. takata and ford should offer a rebate/incentive for trading in these death traps. in the mean time, i am still paying top dollar property tax on this defective unit. not fair!!! please have someone call me to discuss. 704-641-0360.

Takata recall notice was given in july 2016 that the airbags were defective and would be replaced. they are a disaster waiting to happen. we just want replacement before this happens.

Takata recall it has been almost a year, and i still haven't been contacted about a recall fix.

Takata recall, i received a notice of recall dated july 2016,for passenger side airbag replacement. i was living in zone a, but have since relocated. i am concerned that the cover area of the airbag is now separated, and i do not allow anyone to be seated in the passengers seat. i would like to add that i have taken excellent care of my since the date of purchase. in the worst case scenario should someone be seated in the passenger area and the bag deploys in a non accident time of travel i will be left with no other option but to seek civil action for all damages, both injury and interior damages. i am only writing so that there a record as to be noted. thank you *tr
