Problems with 2008 Ford Ranger AIR BAGS

July 2016 we received a recall notice about the passenger airbag inflator must be replaced. this is taking way too long to be fixed. we are a city dept. in chesapeake va that provides mosquito control.

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2008 ford ranger. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v384000 (air bags). the dealer (tasca ford, 250 webster square rd, berlin, ct 06037, (860) 828-3546) installed the wrong part and later stated that they were unable to determine when the correct part for the recall would be supplied from the manufacturer for an extended period of time. the dealer did not provide a loaner vehicle for months. the contact called the dealer numerous times and was unable to receive the recall repair within a reasonable time frame. the manufacturer was contacted. the contact had not experienced a failure. vin tool confirms parts not available.

Takata recall - i received a letter dated july 2016 informing me of this recall. i have contacted the ford dealer ship several times asking when this was going to be fixed and was told that it probably never would be. i went to ford.com and did a chat with an agent that fed me canned responses that told me there were issues finding a supplier to make the parts and there was no where to escalate the issue and i would receive a letter in the mail when parts were received. i am very concerned by fords negligence in dealing with this recall. how can they send me a letter saying if i am in an accident my airbag may kill me and not do anything for a year and a half to resolve the issue. how can i get help in getting this recall completed?
