Takata airbags did not deflate in car accident for safety purpose.

Takata recall remedy is still unavailable after more than a year since i received the notice of the takata recall. i'm concerned about the safety of my passengers or the decrease of the vehicle's value in case i would try to sell it.

On may 23, 2017 vehicle hydroplaned and went down an embankment. the drivers side airbag did not deploy. it was on a city street. suffered number 2 fracture of neck

Recall states there is a safety defect with the airbags that could cause injury or death. any safety defect that can cause injury or death makes the vehicle unsafe to drive and places the occupants at risk of personal injury or loss of life. it nhtsa legal and moral responsibility to protect the public from such safety defects. other than the recall notice, the ford motor company will not provide any detail or update on when they will fix the defect other than to say we will send you a letter. ford provided a number to call for additional information, but the only information they provide is that there is noting they can do and they will send a letter at some point in the future. i really wish the nhtsa would really do their jobs to protect the public and insure these companies correct these life threatening safety defect and provide the consumers safe alternative transportation until they can fix the life threatening safety defects in the vehicles they have sold. this is the second complaint filed and nhtsa did not respond to the initial complaint. failure to respond to this complaint will lead to a formal complaint to the oig on your negligence in this matter!

Takata inflators, it has been 1 year since i got my recall notice and i have been calling ford regarding this and has not been fixed/replaced. this is a dangerous situation with my family in the car.
