I recieved a recall notice in the mail denoting defective airbags have been installed in my car.

Takata recall - i, along with others, am still waiting for the passenger side airbag to be replaced by ford. it has now been over a year since the recall, and the part is unavailable. the person at vista ford told me i shouldn't drive the car with anyone in the passenger seat -- i should put them in the back, which is barely comfortable for a dog. then i called ford motor co, whose rep told me that ford and the nhtsa say the car is perfectly safe to drive while i'm waiting for the recall. isn't ford liable and do you really endorse continuing to drive passengers in the front? nobody knows when the part will be available -- i'm extremely concerned.

Takata recall i purchased a used 2005 ford mustang from tideland ford in pawleys island s.c when i checked on the recall list my car was on the list for takata airbag, i went to the dealer to check to see if it had been repaired and was told it wasn,t they claim my airbag is of thee old ford style not the same as the newer fords and ford will be replacing the newer ones first and not to hold my breath on mine getting mine fixed in the near future because they have no old style in inventory. as ilive in a high humidity area , which is the climate to cause the airbag to fail. now i know this is not the fault of tideland as they have been honest and as helpful as they could but cannot do anything until ford supplies them with the appropriate replacement. i am worried each time i drive the car as it is ten years old, and probably about to fail what can be done to have ford also supply there dealers with the correct parts to fix my car.

Takata recall - recall 15s21 - parts are still unavailable for this fix since july 2015. live in high humidity area - have two mustangs that need the recall fix done and the dealership is unable to get the parts. how long is it going to take to fix a critical issue. recall is useless without the available parts - this is too long after a recall notice for the parts to still be unavailable. please notify when parts will be available for ford. other auto companies (honda) have been able to get the fix - but not ford for the mustangs.

Takata recall. i received my notice of recall for driver side air bag dated may 21, 2015. i called my local dealer and was told that i would be informed when a replacement was available and to just wait until then to call again. as of april 11 2016 no word from ford or my local dealer. when i call them i am told " we don't know when" then say maybe in 3 to six months. they also have said that as my car is a florida car it is a priority. 11 months gone and 3 to 6 months to go for a priority car. your site says that many bags have been replaced, but i can't even get a good time table. how can i get the truth from ford motor company?

Takata recall. on 3/25/15 i had my driver side air bag replaced per ford recall 14b09. then in july of 2015 i got a letter from ford stating that the airbag had to be replaced again and was still under recall. the number of this recall is 15s21 and ford would send me a letter when parts were available. in february of 2016 i still had not heard from ford so i called my dealer and they told me parts were not available. at the same time i emailed ford and the reply was to wait for parts to be available. finally on 5/25/16 i emailed ford again trying to find out if parts were available and i was told that i would be notified in the "very near future" about the availability of parts. as of today 6/30/16 i still have not heard about the parts being available. it has been since march 2015 that i have been driving around with a possible defective airbag in my mustang. apparently the replacement airbag they put in on 3/25/15 may also be defective per ford. my wife and i drive this vehicle and i don't know if it is safe to drive. i actually asked ford if the vehicle was safe to drive and they did not really answer that question. i live in an area of high heat in phoenix and i am wondering if our lives are in danger driving this vehicle. apparently my vehicle is on the priority two list for getting the airbag replaced whatever that means. is there any way to speed this up? thank you. *tr
