Takata recall - received recall notice july 2016, but still not fixed when timeline shows to be recalled by may 2016 in kansas. the recall notice doesn't accomplish any safety without the fix!!! ford contends car is safe to operate based on technical data, advising that they "have no reports of any explosions in ford vehicles", and nhtsa will not provide data to public on what cars have exploded to enable verification by public. this is in direct conflict with the recall notice, which says defect could result in serious injury or death. i purchased two of these vehicles from two separate ford dealers in kansas city area in november 2015 without any notifications of the defects despite nhtsa being aware of these defects for many years prior to my purchases. how is the safety mission of nhtsa being met here??? why are these dangerous cars still being sold with nhtsa not objecting?

Takata recall this is a 2007, the airbags have not been available.... i have been fretting over this since ford mailed a recall paper and said they will call when the parts become available. i have severe anxiety and other mental health issues that stop me from driving this vehicle. as of today my 2007 lincoln only has 23,000 miles on it due to my reluctance to drive an unsafe vehicle.

Takata recall..... i own a 2007 lincoln mkz. i have been waiting since july 2016 for a replacement of the takata airbag. i got a second notice a year later 2017 telling me i need the airbag to be replaced but sorry lincoln does not have it again. so now im going to 3 years that i have been unable to use my car. i have 3 grandchildren that i have full custody of. i cannot use my car because of the severity of possible death or disfigurement due to the faulty takata airbag. i was told not to use the car in which i have not...i bought this car in may 2015. from a florida ford dealer, i feel the car was misrepresented to me, as the takata dangers were not disclosed to me, and i feel the car should never have been sold without first having the airbag replaced. i think that two and a half years is quite excessive to replace an airbag that carries so much danger and liability on the manufacturer and the dealer side. i intend to retain counsel to help resolve the situation. thank you

Lincoln mkz 2007 airbag modular and sensors gone bad and airbag light is on. car was checked for the problem and i was told that it would cost over $1500 to repair this problem. this car parts have continuously fail on this particular car panels on both front door have cracked, drives side has been replaced once by dealer. was told that if i replace door panel i would have to buy the door rather than just a panel, have replaced all four reels on the car, tires constantly have to be checked for low air pressure in tires, dashboard has popped loose at vent in top of dashboard and was told by dealer it would cost over $2000 to repair. this car is suppose to be one of lincoln's best vehicles and the parts on this car are not top quality. car is not old enough to have had so many problem. car was poorly built and it is a shame that lincoln will not step up to the plate and acknowledge all of these problems with this car. i am a very unsatisfied customer and at this point would not consider buying another vehicle in the lincoln family. what a shame that you pay so much for a vehicle and get this kind of quality. shame, shame, shame. *tr

This is in regard to the latest "airbag recalls" on the ford model cars. i own a 2007 lincoln mkz and i have been having a problem with the "warning light" constantly being "on" since august of the year, 2014. i immediately took it to the ford dealership to have it checked out. i was told it would be very expensive to fix, but for me "not to worry about it" as long as the light didn't bother me. in light of the recent recalls of other models of ford cars and stories on the national news about the airbag defect resulting in even fatal injuries due to the airbag, i feel this matter should be addressed by ford and repaired by ford at "their expense." additionally, i only have 50,450 miles on my car and it has been taken care of very well by me. i would appreciate a response as soon as possible since i drive my car every day and am very concerned about this issue. thank you *tr
