Starting in 2016 i have called ford montana dealership, called corporate office, and filed complaint. no fix at dealership, no help from corporate. now 2018, when will this be fixed?
I received a recall notice about the takata passenger airbag in my ford vehicle more than 1 year ago. i have contacted the local ford dealer repeatedly and have checked the ford web site online, and they both say that parts are not available to repair my vehicle. after entering my vehicle information at https://www.airbagrecall.com, i was also advised that the recall is incomplete and "remedy not yet available". i was also advised, "if the manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for your vehicle in a timely manner, please contact the nhtsa vehicle safety hotline at: 1-888-327-4236 or tty: 1-800-424-9153 or file an online complaint with nhtsa." therefore i am filing this online complaint. at this time, i would just like to have my vehicle's passenger airbag replaced in a timely manner. the date i am giving below is the date of the original recall notice. (july 1, 2016)

Takata recall. ford notified me by mail in july of 2016. i contacted my local dealer immediately and they stated that they were waiting for the parts. contacted them today (11/03/2017) and they are still waiting for the parts and did not seem aware of when they would be getting them. they also could not inform me if ford motor company was actively seeking parts elsewhere as takata is apparently attempting to declare bankruptcy.

Part has been on recall since 2016 when i received the recall notice. i've been calling and have been told part is on back order from another country. really......this is ridiculous. maybe if the parts were made in the united states they would be available. sad and disgusted.
Takata recall--ford motor company has suggested that no one should sit in the right front passengers seat because the air bag will not deploy if there is a collision. the vehicle has never been in a collision whereby the airbag deployed. ford motor company is dragging their feet in getting replacement parts and has not offered to remove the air bag while waiting on parts.
Takata recall. received recall notice in july 2016 in which it stated when "parts become available". however, when reading some nhtsa's documents i noted that some vehicles that are in a hah zone should have a higher priority. my vehicle has always been registered in florida (hot and humid) and is listed as a priority 5. the only information i have received is the july 2016 safety recall notice. what is the current status of the takata parts availability?
Takata airbags - we got a recall notice last july from ford about these dangerous takata airbags. i have been calling all three ford dealers in the fort worth texas area for the past four months about these airbags. i get the same answer over and over "we don't have the parts". meanwhile we are forced to drive around in this extremely dangerous vehicle. why can't they put airbags from the new cars into our defective cars?
Takata recall so far the passengers side airbag has not deployed, however ford sent out a notice in july of 2016, and still does not have a time line on when free airbag replacements will be made. ford has been traveling at a snails pace at getting this problem rectified. mean while its a load gun sitting on the dash board with the hammer cocked ready to fire at impact.
Takata recall- received notification from ford july 2016. still no fix available for passenger side air bag.
Takata inflators have not received any free replacement of my air bags. it's been since july 2016. i've called everyone. dealer say they don't have the parts.filed complaints at ford corp. as well.
We got a notice on july 2016 saying we had takata airbags and it had a nhtsa recall 16v-384. i have called both locally here in texas and in detroit and they continue to tell me they don't have the parts to fix the car. when will they fix this car?

Takata recall is my car on recall
Takata recall: received initial notice of recalibrating in june 2016 and a remedy has still not been provided by car manufacturer, or takata (which is in bankruptcy). it appears to be a very serious defect, and yet a solution/remedy still has not been provided. called local dealerships and no one has been provided with replacement parts. i would think this would open companies up for possible litigation.
Takata recall - issue still not remedied after 18 months of waiting for notice to replace defective components! airbag dash light is on all the time.

Takata recall. my vehicle has an airbag inflator recall as of june 1st 2016. a vehicle with a safety feature defect is not safe to drive, and loaner vehicles are not being issued. why am i subject to injury or possible death because of a faulty part that hasn't been replaced? my car is not safe to drive because of the takata recall, and there is not yet a remedy for the recall. it's been 15 months since the recall was issued, and nothing has been done. i've been told by a ford motor company customer service representative and the customer service manager, that there is no issue with the vehicle and it is safe to drive. which is wrong because if everything was fine then there wouldn't be a recall on it. and why is it that ford isn't giving out loaner or rental vehicles to consumers who are affected by the recall? why is it that nhtsa and honda advise that their vehicles effected by the recall only be driven to an authorized dealer for repair, but for fords nhtsa says they are safe to drive? it shouldn't matter what make or model, if it is affected by the recall then it isn't safe to drive. i should not be expected to drive an unsafe vehicle, just because the parts aren't available. that is putting so many lives at risk. i, as should others affected, be issued a loaner or rental vehicle at the companies expense, for having a defecting part in their vehicle. we shouldn't have to wait around like a sitting duck hoping that nothing happens. this needs to addressed and fix right away.
