Problems with 2006 Ford Mustang AIR BAGS

Takata inflators i have on multiple occasions contacted my local ford dealership, astro ford of d'iberville, ms, about having recall replacement of both driver and passenger air bags. they put me off, do not return calls or messages, and generally refuse to do the required replacements. date of most recent contact given.

On 07/19/2019, subject vehicle was in motion on clay street in thomas county, georgia when the driver crashed into a utility pole. our client was a passenger in subject vehicle and sustained injuries from airbag deployment that resulted in loss of his eye after going to three separate hospitals.

Have attempted to get on the waiting list to have air bag modules replaced, have been told "we never know when we will be getting the needed parts, just keep calling us" this has been over a year now and no parts available

Takata airbag recall. i don't own this vehicle anymore. transferred title to my ex spouse in 7/18. maryland mva confirms vehicle retitled. i keep getting notices for recall with my pa address on them and ford won't change owner name or address. they actually send the recalls to me in another state that this vehicle has never been titled or registered in. i have tried and tried to get ford to send the recall notices to my former spouse who has this vehicle. we are not able to communicate to each other due to "no contact" orders in place. i think my former spouse has a right to have the vehicle repaired but i can't or have anyone i know forward these notices to them and ford just sits there and does nothing. i have even went to the point of having a letter sent to me by the maryland mva confirming that the vehicle was re titled and has a new owner and ford still won't accept that, they insist their "third party" company gets the information from the registered vehicles in each state. the registration for this vehicle was cancelled in my name and the plates were returned to the maryland mva months ago. the latest recall notice came yesterday. is it going to take an accident or possible death and lawsuit for ford to comply and change the owner information? i don't know what to do to get this corrected. i keep getting the runaround and apparently it is very critical that it is addressed.

Takata recall i received a notice 12/2017 that said do not let anyone sit in the passenger seat. i received a notice 3/2018 that a replacement airbag was available and i should contact my dealer. the dealer (rt 12 greene ny 13778) has said (3 different conversations where the story changed) they don't have any and are not allowed to order them. they told me if and when ford decides they send a limited # to the dealership. i want to know how to get my airbag replaced if the dealer can not get them in. i also tried the nhtsa website and was told (lashawn) to go elsewhere for my complaint. please help, i would like to drive without worry my passenger may be injured. i did not have this trouble when the drivers airbag was recalled/ replaced. thank you

I received a recall letter in the mail on 3/2018 however ford in puyallup is not received any replacements as of today. i tried calling the number on the letter but it says invalid recall number (17s01) and i cannot reach a human. is there something wrong with my car or not?

Takata recall - 16v-384. on 4-16 i called the local ford dealer (interstate ford, colorado) and told them i wanted to get my recall performed on my vehicle. they told me the parts were not avail. here in co but only in the humid areas. i told them that i often travel to humid areas and that i would like the recall parts installed. they told me i would have to talk to ford to get parts as they could not do anything. i called ford customer relationship center and they, wendy (2188296), told me that they did not know when the parts would be available and that i would just have to wait. i told her what i told interstate ford service dept. she told me it would be ok for me to travel with a passenger in the front seat, which is opposed to what ford has stated. she then told me that i would have to call back to the dealer to be put on a wait list for the recall as they could do nothing and knew nothing about parts availability. i told her that i needed the parts now, as the dealer and her stated that some dealers do have the recall parts now (conflicting statements were made in the same conversation). i told her that i wanted ford to get the parts sent to my local dealer to have this fixed. she told me she could not do that and did not know when the parts would be available. wendy then said she would call the dealer to have me put on a waitlist. she called the dealer as i waited on the phone line. she got back on about 5 minutes later and told me that the dealership computers were down and i would have to call them in 2 hours, when the computers should be back up. i feel that i was getting the run around with the dealership and fmc. each told me to talk to the other and neither was able to tell me when i would be able to get my recall performed. i have not been able to get the recall scheduled to date.

Takata recall-- failure to fix in a timely manner. notified of recall on 03/2017 and no remedy for recall has been released as of 02/2018. car is not useable for carrying passengers in this condition due to inability to disable passenger airbag. this vehicle was also affected by recall for drivers side airbag interim fix (2014) and no permenant fix has yet to be released for this issue as well.

When setting up a date to replace both air bags, i was told that this could take 2-4 days. i told them that this is the only form of transportation i have and can you give me a loaner car. they said yes, we can rent you a car. the recall notice states "no cost" and now they want $$$ for a rental. two of my colleagues had loaner cars from gmc & doge dealers. i have asked four dealers in my area, with no luck. what recourse do i have?

After getting the drivers airbag in my 08 ford mustang i have received info that it read only a temporary fix. so the drivers airbag had to be replaced again. the passengers side air bag is also defective. with no replacement parts available until spring/ summer 2018. so anyone riding in passengers side is st risk of harmful damage or death. they are not willing to provide me with a loaner car. so i asked what i can do to protect my passengers in the meantime. they tell me to have them ride in back seat. there's no back seat for adults bc it's a. convertible. that leaves the trunk for a passenger. i'm afraid of getting sued by someone getting hurt in my car due to the negligence of ford motor co.

Waiting since june of 2016 for airbag part to be replaced on the passenger side. according to malloy ford of winchester va they say no part available.

Takata recall i have not been able to transport my grandchildren in my vehicle for months. is there an option to avoid waiting for the manufactures to correct this problem? are there approved air bag repair facilities that can fix this problem? it appears that it may be several years before my car is repaired.

Takata recall. have been informed they still do not have passenger side inflator and do not know when it will be available.

I am getting recall notices and i do not own this car anymore and i don't know who does. how do i make this stop. [xxx] is the vin number. my email is [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Takata recall is taking way to long for a remedy.

During july 2016, i received a letter from ford motor company recalling one of my ford mustang air bags (recall 16v-384, 16s26). after patiently waiting for a year and a half for a letter stating new air bag inflators were available, i called ford last week to get a recall status. the ford representative stated that my recall was valid but ford could not tell me when a replacement air bag inflator would be available. this response from ford was outrageous since the takata air bag issue has been known for some years now and ford has had more than enough time to find and procure replacements. please contact ford and demand they stop delaying progress on airbag replacements.

Takata recall i have been waiting since june 1 for a repair of this recall. the dealer is still waiting on parts. i cannot let anyone ride in the front passenger seat for fear of injury.

Takata recall. after 3 years, ford still does not have my passenger side inflator ready to install. this is ridiculous, and i refuse to be forced to take my vehicle into the dealer twice for the airbags. please direct ford to get both replacement inflators into stock immediately so that i can get my vehicle fixed once and for all. three years is far too long to wait! what is the holdup!?

Just received notice that tk holding inc. return mail notified me that i have to file by e-mail before dec,27, 2017 that my passenger airbag has not been fixed and that it is recalled and should be fixed as soon as possible, but at this time they have no parts to fix it.

Takata recall -- i recieved notice of the faulty airbag in the winter of 2017 that i had this recall on my car. i set an appointment in the spring of 2017 to have it replace but they did not have the parts at that time. it is currently november of 2017 and i still have not been notified that the parts are available to repair this recall. i was told by re barber ford of holland to keep an eye on my mail for notification.

I took my car in to have the drivers side air bag replaced once there i was imformed that the dealership only had the drivers side and not the passenger side which also needed replacement. about 6 months later i was imformed that the driver side may have been replaced with another defected air bag its been almost a year and a half and still they have not replaced these air bags. each time i call the dealership they imform me they stiill do not have any replacement bags period from takata what is going on ????

Takata recall: rec'd letter regarding recall july 2016, still unable to have passenger airbag inflator replaced. i have called dealership numerous times and they still do not have the airbags to replace the faulty one. i am in fear if anyone is riding with me, and the damage it may cause, even life. nothing has happened as of yet and i am thankful. i try to avoid passengers due to this malfunction. when will these be available???

Received a recall notice sometime ago and were told not available, and few months i i would check to no avail. last time i check was this fall still not available, now i'm stuck with it being checked for my safety. still waiting for recall replacement.

Takata recall. on two occasions i asked ford to indicate whether or not the side air bags installed in my mustang were supplied by takata and if so would they be recalled. on both occasions ford sidestepped my request and refused to answer my questions directly. i believe ford is being dishonest, only trying to limit their liability, at my safety and expense. note: ford has recalled both the frontal air bags but has only replaced one.(see attached letters). please instruct ford to indicate if the side air bags on my mustang were supplied by takata, instruct ford to recall them if they were and instruct ford to expedite the replacement of the takata air bags not yet replaced (the second frontal air bag recall is over a year old). note: there is no doubt in my mind that ford has had enough time to resolve any technical or production issues and their delays are unreasonable.

After calling the local ford dealer, redlands ford for months and always being told they could not get the parts for the recall and to try again next month finally on 7/24/17 we were excited to hear they had the drivers side parts in and we scheduled the repair for 7/25/17. we dropped the car of in the morning on 7/25 excited to finally get this fixed. when we returned at 4:45 to pick up the car we were disapointed to notice it was still parked where it had been that morning. on inquiring with the service department we were told we would need to keep the car another day as they needed to order the part. when i informed them we were told yesterday the part was in stock when we scheduled the service we were told different models require different parts. when i told him they had verified the part by the vin number and asked what happened to the part he had in stock he refused to answer only saying they could reorder the part for the next day. i asked why they had not called me when they noticed they didn't have the part he ignored my question saying they needed to reorder the part. i asked him why if they could order the part and get it in the next day they had waited 15 months to do so. again he ignored my question insisting i leave the car so they could order the part. we took our car and left, filing a complaint with the dealer and now with you. we now have the impression neither fmc nor the local dealers have any intention of completing the recall repairs and are just making life difficult so we give up. sad that my 17 year old son's safety rests in their hands.

I have been notified during the initial recall of the lethal takata airbags in my 2006 mustang. today, i have been contacting the dealer in margate florida where i purchased the vehicle. as of this date after numerous telephone calls, visits, i am still without the passenger side airbag. i left messages, not return calls, poor customer service responses, etc... i would like some assistance in getting the passenger side bag replaced. it's been several years and the car is a daily driven car before my family experience the sad events as other famllies has experienc3ed.

Takata recall -- nhtsa recall number 16v384. status is "recall incomplete, remedy not available" over a year after the recall was issued. is any progress being made on this.

Takata recall - the driver's side airbag was serviced, but the passenger side is original. i have been unable to use the passenger-side front seat of my car for nearly a year because i don't want my passengers sitting near the defective airbag.
