Takata recall: this situation is real, but ford has lacked a sense of urgency to fix/correct this serious and potentially fatal lethal problem. july 2016, first ford notice received. since then , the same notice received on march 2017 and march 2018. the first two stated "when parts are available" they will contact me by mail, and i am to arrange for repairs with a /local ford dealer. the march 2018 information states that "ford is working as quickly as possible to make replacement parts available......" estimated for the spring, 2018. somehow, that sounds vaguely familiar! other manufacturers have been correcting this problem for some time. honda has been sending out personnel to directly contact owners. yet ford has been unable to do anything but wait ( on what ? ) ! obviously, for some reason, ford no longer has any regard for safety. they are spending money on new developments ( reported $11 billion on an electric car), but apparently nothing on this know lethal hazard. why has ford been allowed to continue for over 2 years without any correction or real attempt to correct this situation, while others have? when will nhtsa step in (or be able to) demand some immediate corrective action by ford? i have car which i can't trade or sell nor should by driving. ford did not offer any alternative solutions during my discussions with them.

Takata recall two months ago, i received recall notice indicating inflation of the passenger side airbag could cause severe injury or death. neither ford nor nhtsa have acted in a responsible manner in that ford is still waiting for parts and cannot estimate when parts will be available. considering inflation can cause "serious injury or death", there is no honest guidance by either ford nor nhtsa other than keep driving. i intend to copy this to my two senators and my house representative.

Takata air bags have been waiting since first recall july 2016 for them to fix airbags not able to let anyone sit in front seat, have called ford dealers several times with no response other than we have no replacements, its been two years and nothing

Takata recal no positive respond from the dealer when this problem can be fixed i have been told several times the parts are not available yet. any idea what time frame

Takata recall. it has now been more than 18 months since i received the first notification of this recall. i frequently have 5 people who need to travel in this vehicle, so not using the passenger seat is not an option. ford needs to install the new airbags, buy back all affected vehicles, or pay for car rentals when front passenger seat is required.

My car has been under recall for takata passenger airbag explosion risks for over 15 months and there is still no timeline for replacement parts. when will ford make my vehicle safe to drive again?

Takata recall - it's been more than two years. local dealer keeps saying he's waiting for parts.unable to have passenger in front seat.

Takata recall... received my recall notice from ford on july, 2016. they still do not have parts and have not offered any options. i am afraid my passenger will die, or that i will die if a metal fragment hits me. if i disconnect the seat belt, then my passenger may die as well.

Takata recall

Takata recall there has been a recall on my airbags for a year and a half. ford still has not given new airbags or materials to the dealerships to be able to fix this issue. these airbags are an extreme safety hazard, so i cannot understand why it would take this long for ford to fix the problem. i feel like it's just a death wish waiting to happen.

Have contacted ford on several occasions and they have not taken care of my recall. saying that i should just not let anyone ride in the front seat of my car indefinitely.
