Takata recall ford issued a recall notice (17s01 / nhtsa recall 17v-024) for the passenger airbag inflator in 2008 ford fusions. the notice indicates that ford will send a second letter when parts become available. the recall date was jan 10, 2017. it's nov 5, 2017 and according to ford customer service, they don't even have a timeline for when the parts will become available. it has been almost 11 months; an unacceptable delay to get a potentially deadly part out of people's vehicles. additionally, the takata bankruptcy notice directs us to get our defective inflators replaced immediately. the resolution i expect from this complaint is for ford to get their act together and get this done now. perhaps you can apply the necessary pressure to motivate them.

Tamara recall

Takata recall - still haven't received the actual recall order to get problem fixed

Takata recall i have not been given any remedy in the mail regarding this recall, and have not been able to drive my vehicle for months due to this recall.

On several occasions i have had an abs event,when braking and running over bumps or potholes, where the brake pedal goes to the floor and then remains very soft . i have had the lines bled 4 or 5 times in the last 2 years. the brakes, even after being bled are very soft and i must continually pump them to stop.

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2008 ford fusion. while driving various speeds in the snow, the vehicle skidded and crashed into another vehicle. the air bags failed to deploy. there were no injuries sustained. a police report was filed. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. the vehicle was later taken to an independent mechanic and the front end damage was repaired. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer to determine the cause of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v384000 (air bags); however, the part needed for the repair was not available. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the vehicle was taken to al piemonte ford (2500 w north ave, melrose park, il 60160, (708) 345-9300), but the parts were not available for the repair. the manufacturer was not contacted. the approximate failure mileage was 180,000. vin tool confirms parts not available. *tt *tr - (recall related incident) ts

Takata recall the passenger airbag is on recall. i have contacted the dealer, turnpike ford in huntington west virginia multiple times and i keep getting told that they can not fix it, but there may be a fix for it in a few months. i have been told this for a year. i received a legal notice about the airbag and it advised me to go to the dealer. the dealer still says that there is no fix.

Passenger side airbag is affected by the takata recall. my complaint is that ford has known since june 2016 that the passenger airbag needs to be replaced, but has yet to send notification. i only became aware of the recall by researching on my own. ford has an obligation to notify owners of a recall even if parts are not immediately available.

Dash is bubbling around the driver's side vent on dash and around the passenger side airbag. vent is protruding from the dash. airbag light on dash also comes on intermittently but is not constant. also involved in the takata recall

Recall ;etter rec'd july 2016. told no air bags available at that time and would be contacted when they had. have heard nothing as of 11-18-2016. called ford today and told by "mary" part not available, can't provide estimate of time when it would be available.
