Takata recall - in may 2015, my client received a nhtsa recall 15v319 for the airbag and brought her vehicle to a local ford dealership to comply with the recall notice. at that time, she was advised that the replacement airbag wasn't available and they did not have a time as to when it would be available. on august 22, 2016, my client was driving her 2014 ford mustang when she rear-ended a vehicle. upon impact, the airbag deployed and caused painful lacerations, abrasions and burns related to the inflator's exploding metal fragments. my client took her vehicle to the local ford dealership for repairs and was told that the airbag was still not available and her vehicle could not be repaired. the local ford dealership did not offer her alternate vehicle transportation. she had to purchase another vehicle and continue paying on the mustang enduring 2 car payments and insurance. her vehicle was repaired in march, 2017.

I have received safety recall notice 15s21 letters from ford on july 2015 and may 2016 however the dealers will not allow us to make an appointment to have the driver air bag replaced. i have copied this complaint to our attorney and hold all associated responsible for any injuries as this recall has been identified over 12 months ago and the dealers are not moving expeditiously to resolve such potential injury

Takata recall the recall on my 2014 ford mustang air bag was published in may 2015. it is now december of 2016 and we have not heard anything further in regards to the air bag issue. what are we waiting for? when can i expect to get my airbags replaced?

Takata recall - i am wondering about the recall, i own a 2014 ford mustang gt which was on the recall list. i got my documentation almost 2 years ago now and nothing has been done from ford or anyone. what is the standing on the recall? what are we to do as owners, these cars are unsafe and no one will take them on trade. and the finance companies aren't doing anything either

I was told my car had a recall on the airbags when i was thinking of purchasing. i was told they would be replaced free of charge as soon as the parts came in. that was 2 years ago. every time i go to have maintenance done i ask about this recall and when can i expect it to be done....hopefully before it kills me!!! i live in alpharetta, ga and the traffic is as bad as everyone says. accidents happen all the time. i would hate that my death occurred because ford didn't replace faulty parts.

Takata recall. i purchased this car used approx a year ago. i received a recall letter from ford july 2015. there is still no place that can make these repairs due to not having the parts. i found out yesterday that these cars with this recall were not to be resold. i went to check about trading my car in just to upgrade to a newer year when i was informed that the cars cannot be resold. the trade value was a joke and i do believe that the recall has alot to do with that. i am very upset that i am driving a car with my child in it that has this airbag issue. i called the number on the letter when i received it and was told it was nothing to worry about and that when the parts were available i would be informed. well still nothing has been done and i keep getting told there aren't any parts yet. so what do i do i purchased a 28000.00 car that is worth nothing for a trade and it is not safe to drive. i feel like the dealership i purchased from should do something for me and ford should replace all these defective vehicles. i am just so upset over this. what can i do next? vehicle vin [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Letter from senator nelson on behalf of constituent re 2014 ford mustang recall. *smd the dealer informed the consumer, the parts were not available. recall # 15v319000. *jb

Takata inflators was notified by ford in july of 2015 that car was to be recalled when i contacted ford yesterday, they said they don't know when they will fix the car...maybe in july of 2016 this is dangerous and unacceptable what is being done to protect me and getting this recall done?

The car contains a defective takata air bag, for which a recall has been issued. several months ago i received a letter from ford stating the airbag must be replaced. i contacted the ford dealer where i purchased the car, and they told me they had no idea when the airbag could be replaced. i asked if they would give me a special deal in trading up to a 2015 mustang that doesn't have the airbag problem. they said no. i also contacted ford hq who indicated i basically have two options at this time: not driving the car (which has only 3100 miles on it) or drive it at the risk of being killed if the air bag explodes. do i have any other recourse?

Takata recall-does anyone have any idea how long we are supposed to wait to have our airbags replaced? my car will be 2 years old in october and i am just keeping my fingers crossed that i do not have an accident that deploys the defective airbags-this is ridiculous and could be a serious safety concern. thank you for any information that you can provide to me as to when i might expect to actually have my airbags replaced. thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Takata recall - this 2014 mustang has approximately 22700 miles and has been subject to the takata airbag recall for approximately two years. though ford has notified me that airbags are available, i cannot get a dealer (i've been to two) to install the airbag. additionally, the car has an electrical fault in the engine management system that has been noted since the car had 5000 miles on it. despite more than five trips to the dealer and more than 28 days in the shop, the car is still unrepaired. the ford engineer's latest speculation as to the cause is a software problem, which he acknowledged could affect all systems, including brakes, throttle control, lighting, and the airbags to name a few. bbb's autoline arbitrator agreed that the car is unsafe to drive and ordered ford to repurchase the vehicle. however, ford did not do so within the allotted time due to frivolous document requests that delayed the process, and their refusal to inspect the car on site or pick the car up with a wrecker at a reasonable time. they insisted that i drive the car, which i now refuse to do so. there are other documents available, these are the primary documents related to the claim.

Takata recall- ford taking to long to replace. 18 months so far. i believe ford's emphasis is on new car sales and they are diverting "safer inflators" to new car production ahead of repairs. i further believe nhtsa is helping ford and other automakers get away with "choosing" an unrealistic option that only hurts consumers and benefits manufacturers like ford. for 18 months - i've suffered loss of use and loss of value and i blame nhtsa for not acting quicker and allowing ford to get away with this for an unreasonable amount of time.

Tl* the contact owns a 2014 ford mustang. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 15v319000 (air bags) and stated that the parts needed for the recall repair were not available. the contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the manufacturer was made aware of issue. the contact had not experienced a failure.

The car was making a dry pass by at a drag strip (non racing) while driving the car ignition cut off, causing a loss of control. car hit rear quarter panel and then hit the front tire and suspension ripping the front bumper off. driver was injured but not bad. had car towed to a ford dealer, where we were told we would have to pay $4,000 to have a ford represenative look at, to determine cause for the car to shut off and air bags not deploy. *tr

I was t boned in the passenger door the kid that hit was probably traveling at about 55 .. y car was totaled and not one air bag deployed . the light is on like they did but not one came out. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2014 ford mustang. the contact stated that while traveling approximately 70 mph, the contact crashed into another vehicle. upon impact, the air bags failed to deploy. there were no injuries. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not contacted about the failure. the failure mileage was 254.

Takata recall - the dealer has no parts to fix my car. the recall has been in effect for over a year now. this is a known issue that can kill someone if the air bags inflate. if i cannot get my car repaired then why can't the dealership be forced to replace it or buy it back? what is my recourse? the u.s. goverment collected millions in fines from takata. where is the justice for the consumer?

Takata recall ///paint peeling and bulbing

I received a recall notice from ford in july of this year concerning defected air bag deployment on driver side. it is now the middle of september and no further actions have been taken. am i to wait until an accident occurs before repairs are made, or can something be done to speed up this recall/repair process?
