Takata recall . i have received several notices but am told the replacements are not available for front passenger air bag replacement.

Received a recall letter in july 2016 and they still don't have the parts to fix my car

The dashboard is bulging it doesn't look good and it doesn't feel safe. i wonder if it would activate correctly at an impact during an accident or if it would activate while riding down the road. it started on the right side passenger and it has slowly moved to the left side driver. this started happening over 2 years ago and it's slowly become worse. ford needs to be held accountable for the fix this is cosmetic but it also is functional with the airbag right behind it where it started.

I have contacted several ford dealerships and they have not been able to sufficiently address the airbag recall and provide me with any alternatives. the passenger airbag dash area is visually affected and i am afraid for the safety of my family while in this car.

When i got in my car this morning i noticed the dash is bulging around passenger air bag. the car was parked in my driveway.

I have had to replace the transmission, the head gasket, drive shaft and carrier barrings. when i had the vehicle fixed i was told i need a new gas tank as well. my passenger side airbag compartment is rising up from the dash and i am concerned it will deploy even without an accident to initiate the deploy. called ford motor company and they were not willing to help in any way. i purchased the car in 2013 and have had problems from the start with no help from ford. thank you.

Have heard anything to resolve this issue and the area where the airbag is , is coming apart.

Takata recall - there was a recall on our vehicle airbag officially june f 2016. we recached out to a local ford dealership prior to that date (around april of 2016) and they stated they couldn't do anything since the recall had yet been announced. its now almost 2 years later and we are just receiving notice that no one should be riding in the vehicle's passenger seat. the notice states if someone rides in the passenger seat, and the faulty airbag malfunctions, the person can be killed or injured. when we called ford again, they stated they still did not have parts to complete fix. this is a major issue since we carpool with multiple people. the for dealership also stated they couldn't supply a rental car.

Brakes are spongy and intermittently do work at all ..have replaced calipers twice and bled the lines only to have the same problem. air bag on passengers side is coming apart in dash. drivers side door handle snapped and the doors lock themselves even with key in ignition running. looking online i see that many have had the same issues.

I had my 2008 ford fusion se checked out due to the rear tires were going bald. i have put 6 tires on the rear til the bodyshop put it on a light and said there was a bend in my knuckle assembly and my lower rear passenger control arm was slightly bent. my steering wheel turns to the left while driving and the wheel are straight. my back to tires needless to say bow out, and i continuously buy tires because the parts and labor are over 1000.00. also the passenger airbag cover is loose and im afraid tht the airbag will pop while im driving.
