Contacted ford a year after getting the letter and they still do not have the parts, i want them to give me a loaned car till they can fix mine.

This complaint is about the recall process on my son's mustang. ford sent us notice last year and nothing has been done as the dealer repeatly told they don't have the part yet. if the situation can cause injury, i would expect priority to be placed on replacement parts.

Takata recall. i received notice of recall on my ford mustang 9 to 12 months ago. the dealer tells me they don't have the part to replace the airbag. my husband and son both had the same recall on their dodge cars and the vehicles were repaired immediately many months ago. in the mean time, i'm still waiting for parts for my car and praying i'm not in a car accident. i have great concern for my safety and the safety of my grandchildren, who frequently travel in my car. it seems absolutely wrong that my life seems to be a no concern to ford. this "part issue" needs to be resolved. i was told not to contact the dealer again until i hear from ford that the part is available. please note that i'm entering todays date in "when did this happen" as a date is required to move on to next. this has been going on for months.

Takata recall. i was notified by ford around june of 2015 about the possibility of a defective airbag inflator on the driver's side. it is almost april 2016, and as of today, ford has no idea when service parts will be made available for the repair. this car is driven every day and i am disappointed at the lack of speed that takata and ford seem to be placing on this recall.

It has been two years trying to get my passenger air bag replaced through "ford of bellevue" in washington. their same answer has not changed through multiple phone calls over that time, saying they do not have the parts and that it is a regional shortage. this is ridiculous. consumerreports reported in november 2017 that "nhtsa says earlier airbag shortages have largely been resolved.". that was 6 months ago and i am still waiting. i am afraid to take any passengers.

Driver airbag inflator replacement. i called ford directly in august 2015 to find out when i could schedule my car for repair and was told in q3 of 2015 i would be notified. i have not received any notification. on december 22, 2015 i called ford again for status and was told they had no time estimate on when the repair would be completed only that i would receive a first class letter. i asked if anyone at ford could estimate the time of repair and was told no. i said that they must be receiving a steady stream of replacement parts and i considered this a dangerous even life threatening problem and was told no one could tell me when the repair would be completed.

Takata recall. it is going on well over one year for the replacement of the passenger air bag and ford still does not know when my passenger air bag will be replaced. if someone dies because of this air bag, consequences will be serious.

Takata recall i am a concerned parent of two teenagers that are driving cars effected by the airbag recall. i received a letter for my sons ford mustang in september 2015, and for my daughters 2009 honda cr-v march 2016. i have contacted the manufacturer ford and honda, and have not been given any information about when parts will be available. i feel that there is a lack of information being provided by the manufacturer, as well as specific information being provided by the nhtsa. i live in a designated high risk area, and would like to know what my options are for keeping my children safe from being killed by a malfunctioning airbag deployment.

Takata recall: received recall letter in august 2015, called bayshore ford in pennsville, nj, told no parts are available and not to worry the car is safe to drive. still not received any update; called three separate ford dealerships on 3/28/2016: one in vineland, nj said parts might be in 3rd quarter 2016 at the earliest one in freehold, nj said the dealerships will be notified when parts become available, but no time frame given. bayshore ford in pennsville, nj (the original selling dealership) simply says they have no idea when parts will be in and has no other information on any interim repairs that can be done in the meantime.

Front air bag may rupture and deploy metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death. i don't feel safe driving my car. i contacted ford and expressed my concern and they said it was okay to drive. i asked for loaner or a rental until ford got parts to fix problem and they said no. i'm very unhappy about the way ford is handling this.

Takata inflators for the past 12 months, neither ford corporate hq or our local ford dealer has agreed to replace the faulty takata airbag inflators. both refuse to return phone calls, and after being forced to stay on hold for upwards of 30 minutes, refuse to put us on a list or provide any information, beginning in july 2015.

Nhtsa recall 15v-319 states that in certain vehicles, the front driver side air bag inflator housing may rupture and deploy abnormally in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver side frontal airbag. an inflator rupture could result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death. i contacted my local dealership from whom i purchased the car, tasca ford on pontiac ave in cranston, ri who told me they had no information on this recall and suggest i contact the manufacturer. i call ford and was told they were aware of the problem and were working with their suppliers to obtain parts to remedy this unsafe situation, and they would notify me when they were ready to hopefully repair this defect. i feel unsafe now driving this vehicle, and fear for my own safety as well as any passengers in the vehicle. the company would not offer me nor pay for a rental car while they are searching for an answer. they didn't believe it was necessary. this is unacceptable.

July 2015 received recall notice. waited patiently for 6 months without followup letter. contacted ryan ford in late january about repair. told part not available. contacted appel ford in early february about repair. same response that part not available. with all of the new airbag recalls will i ever get mine done?
