Long mcarthur inc of salina ks sold me this new vehicle on june 24th 2015 . after they were aware of the open recall. it is my understanding that it is against federal law for any dealership to sell a new vehicle with an open recall . i have contacted the dealership and was told they will do nothing to correct the problem ford issued the recall at the end of may 2015 . well before i purchased the car. i contacted ford also and was told they have no parts to repairs the vehicle . i am terrified of risking my life driving this vehicle . it was illegal to sell a new car with an open recall. i want the dealership to take back the car they should have never sold in the first place.

I need this airbag issue resolved, i've waited long enough. i contacted y'all in april 2016 and about a year prior to that in june 2015. i've talked to my local ford dealer and everyone says no parts available and no loaner cars. y'all act like getting behind a wheel of a car that can kill you from shrapnel deploying from the air bag is no big deal. my pregnant wife and i risk our lives daily in fear that a simple fender bender could be the death of us. i was quoted the airbag would be ready in the summer of 2016 and then later told 4th quarter of 2016. i'm growing impaitient. 1.5 years going on 2, and they've know about it way longer than that. keep in mind takata denied it at first. i need answers and a plan of action of how you're going to make me feel safe again. ps takata should be paying for rental cars for everyone until they go broke.

Takata recall no accident--received recall notice from ford over one year ago in june of 2015....said the car would be repaired by 3rd quarter of this year car still has not been fixed due to apparently no parts to do so at dealer

Hello, i hope this message finds you well, i would like to express my deep concern and dissatisfaction with my 2014 ford mustang. unfortunately as you are aware the takata driver side air bag inflator recall has immensely hindered my opportunity of selling the vehicle. ford has not been helpful, due to the recall the value of the vehicle has strongly decreased. they have not relayed substantial information which will essentially fix the recall. "a notice will be sent to you in the mail", i have not received any information in the mail. i've called numerous times and it appears quite frankly ford does not care about this issue. ford motor co has demonstrated a disregard on when the parts will be sent to fix the recall, and or helping me get rid of the vehicle. i have a payoff amount of $18,168.00, unfortunately for me i've been dealing with this recall for nearly two years. i would greatly appreciate your assistance with ford motor co. thank you and happy holidays. best regards, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Takata recall - ford advise of recal for the takata airbag safety issue in may of 2015. i just received another recall notice from ford saying recall could not yet be fixed and current target was 2017. this is unacceptable. i have a son driving a car knowing that at any time his life could be put in danger by lack of a timely response by the manufacturer to repair a known defect of which they [ford] are aware, notified - but done nothing. there is no legitimate excuse why ford is forcing us to use a vehicle with a known safety defect with the takata exploding airbags without correcting the situation or providing alternative safe provisions such as use of a non-recalled vehicle of similar model, refund for the defective vehicle and its return, or replacement with a similar model vehicle without the known safety defect.

Takata recall we feel ford motor co. and planet ford are refusing to fix the vehicle in question because of a supposed unavailability of parts. twelve months is far too long. two deaths in houston tx. we parked the car. the importance of completing the inflator replacement and going beyond the minimum requirement of a mailed notification. provide alternative transportation in the form of a loaner or rental vehicle, free of charge, until our vehicle is repaired. we filed a consumer complaint form with ken paxton, attorney general of texas. contacted the governor, ltg, mr. poe and mr. cruz but have had no success. we sent planet ford a copy of the complaint in a certified letter.

Needs the defective air bag replaced. recall issued approximately a year and a half ago. still selling new cars. where is my replacement?

Takata recall this recall was initiated in may of 2015 which is now 16 months ago and there are no parts available and no fix expected for another 3 months. car has been to dealership twice for other general service and both times no fix available and no remorse on dealers part for having me continue to drive and pay for a car that by the stating of the recall could kill my son or his passengers with the equipment which is supposed to protect them in case of a crash. this is highly unacceptable as the reason the car was purchased was for safe transportation between college and home. the ford dealer blames the airbag manufacturer but i didn't buy a takata i bought a ford mustang. they need alternate supply or they need to buy this car back at full retail value. i should not have to take a loss on a car due to them choosing the wrong parts supplier and failing to fix a potentially deadly defect. by law we can't keep loaded guns laying around where someone could accidentally discharge them but ford apparently thinks we should continue to drive with one pointed at our heads.

Takata recall recall was initiated in may of 2015. this is still not resolved. it's pathetic that people who have already purchased vehicles have to drive around what could potentially be a ticking time bomb but the manufacturer can sell new models that haven't been bought by anyone and they get new airbags that i would hope would not potentially harmful the consumer.

Takata recall - according to the nhtsa.gov website, "in the subject vehicles, continued exposure to high levels of absolute humidity may cause the driver airbag inflator housing to rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the supplemental front airbags are designed to deploy." ... since this recall was issued on 05/27/2015 and the remedy is not yet available, this problem has not been addressed in a timely manner (2 years next month)! my wife and i are extremely concerned about the safety of our son driving this vehicle (age 18). this is especially true because we live in the houston area and there is a high level of humidity here in this environment. i want ford to address this issue asap!

Takata recall. i received a recall on my 2014 mustang in may of 2015 and my ford dealer will not fix the car. he says ford will not supply the necessary parts. i want my mustang fixed. i feel a year is long enough to wait on a recall remedy.

Takata recall on airbags. each time i have contacted a dealership, i've been told the airbags are on backorder and my car airbags cannot be repaired. the recall date was may 27, 2015 - two years ago! my car is not safe to drive!

Takata recall: we are in texas, where the climate is very humid, and we have known about this takata airbag issue for over a year, yet, remedy is still not available. for how much longer are we supposed to wait and risk our lives every time we get behind the wheel?! please see below: manufacturer recall number: 15s21 summary: in the subject vehicles, continued exposure to high levels of absolute humidity may cause the driver airbag inflator housing to rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the supplemental front airbags are designed to deploy. safety risk: an inflator rupture could result in metal fragments striking and potentially seriously injuring vehicle occupants. remedy: dealers will replace the driver airbag inflator with a new one, free of charge. recall status: recall incomplete. remedy not yet available

Takata recall. i have been waiting for 15 months for repair. i live in florida where there are high temps and humidity. i am supposed to have priority with there conditions. i think 15 months is way too long.

Takata recall -- it's been over a year since the initial recall notification, and parts are still not available to make the necessary repair. it's not reasonable to expect the vehicle to just be parked until replacement parts are made available.

I have not had an incident. i am filing this complaint, as this vehicle was subject to a recall, #15v319, on 5-27-15 and the repair is still not available. as of 1-4-17, parts to fix the recall issue have not been provided to local dealers. it seems to me that ford should have provided the parts necessary to effect this repair by this time, as over 1 1/2 years have elapsed since the recall notice was issued. it is unsettling to know that this defect exists as we must still use the car on a daily basis.
