I keep getting recall notices and i take it in, but they don't have the parts. i have a lot of letters and paper work.

The dashboard in my vehicle is defective and needs to be replaced. it is warped and impacts the function of the airbag. the warped dashboard bulges in front of the airbag compartment and prevents the airbag from sitting flush in the compartment. it is obvious that if the airbag deploys, it will not deploy properly. we have discussed this with the ford dealer and have been told it is not fords responsibility to replace the dash. we recently had the airbag replaced due to a recall and the problem worsened but the ford dealer again refused to replace the dashboard. we've included three pictures to demonstrate the extent of the problem. since the dashboard is defect and affects that safety of the vehicle, the manufacturer should replace the dashboard at no cost to us.

I have a 2008 ford fusion and the plate on the dash where the passenger side airbag is lifting and you can clearly see where my airbag is about to deploy. it has as well messed my dash up there is such a gap. i have called ford motor company and all they tell me is that they do not have the part and do not know when they will get it as well telling me not to drive my car. well i have to have transportation so what do they expect me to drive????? i am really hoping it does not deploy considering this has been over a year that it is on recall and just so you know my vin use to show the recall and now it does not!!! why is that????

I am a u.s. army service member and i am trying ship my car back to the states however it has a recall on it for the air bag. we took it to the dealership twice now for different mechanical reasons and they told us that it had the recall. however, they don't have the replacement parts for it. can you please provide a wavier or something so we can ship our car? i live in otterberg germany.

The department of motor vehicles has contacted me about my 2008 ford fusion it has a recall with the airbags that could kill or seriously injured or me or any of the passengers if it deploys, my airbag light stays on i bought it at ontario sales in lockport new york, when i bought my car the people had already told me that there was a recall on it and i should be getting a letter in the mail that was about a year ago 2017

Takata recall i have not yet received a recall notice via us mail to have my air bag replaced on the passenger side of my car. how long should this take? what if something should happen and there is no air bag to deflat? who is responsible? this has been going on 6 months now.

Takata recall - i reported this issue almost 4 years ago. i the dashboard is compromised, buckling upwards. i have received 2 notices, nothing pertaining to a repair. ford has been no help and i have feared for 4 years this bag inadvertently going off.

My vehicle was in motion every time the problem occurs. i lose all braking ability for approximately two to no more than five second periods. this has occurred on six total occasions on different days and months.i have replaced my vehicles master cylinder six months ago. i don't feel safe driving my own car. i have witnesses that can confirm this information. the problem has occurred on highways, public roads, also in private drives.

? was the used car dealership aware of this recall when i purchased a ford fusion 2008 on 2/3/2017 from him ? because ford announced the recall in july 2016 and the used car dealer ,had bought this ford fusion 2008 at a used car auction 1 month prior to me buying it..ford motor company did send me 1 recall in december 2017 on the air bags,but said parts wont be available until the spring of 2018..and allso said they sent me a prior recall notice, which they got wrong ! ford allso stated if have any passengers they got to ride in the back seat. i would not of purchased ford fusion 2008 if i would of known this.. today when i was driving my ford a picture of a air bag came on just below my engine light.it flashed on an off 3.times in one day, and t havnt seen it flash since then..

Takata recall - i was first notified in june 2016 that there might be a risk of harm due to passenger airbag. i still have not heard anything about getting it replaced. i just called a local ford dealer and was told that when the part becomes available i will be notified. this is taking way too long and i am so nervous about my passengers safety my kids are not able to sit in the front seat. this is ridiculous.

Takata recall: the takata recall for the passanger side airbag in my 2008 ford fusion has been out for about a year now and there still aren't any replacement parts yet. when will the replacement parts come in?

Takata recall - received notice june 2016 and still waiting for airbag replacement.

Takata recall airbag on recall for over a year and no fix in sight was told not to put anyone in my front seat ford will not give a loaner. also now my abs systems is having trouble and they have not issued a recall even though others are experiencing the same trouble. car is literally a death trap. when driving i have to push brakes to the floor and pump them to get it to stop my brakes and rotors are both good

Takata recall - after receiving notification about the faulty airbag psan inflators made by takata corporation in 2016, i am still awaiting a replacement from ford motor company as of january 2018. the resolution time is unacceptable and puts me and my vehicle occupants at risk for injury or death. i have contacted ford on numerous occasions to receive an update, but am told parts are unavailable and may become available in spring 2018. my major complaint is the time to resolve the issue and the risk that takata and ford have placed me and my family in by not resolving the issue in an expedient manner. i would like the nhtsa to explore options with ford for them to issue me a safe method of similar and acceptable transportation while we continue to wait. two years for resolution is too long. i look forward to your prompt reply.

I received a recall about a year ago on my airbag. after a year they are still telling me they have not received the parts to fix it and you can now see where it is starting to deflate and i haven't been in an accident. now my dash is deformed and a part of the airbag is visible. something needs to be done about this!! i have contacted ford motor company and they stated that i needed to take it to be looked at and would have to pay upfront but i refuse to pay anything due to it being a recall. they need to fix my airbag and my dash free of charge. when calling the dealership to have them look they pretty much tell me i am crazy and there is nothing they can do and that the airbag would not mess the dash up. please help!!!!
