Problems with 2008 Ford Ranger AIR BAGS

Takata recall - i received a settlement notice from a district court in florida stating i may have been part of a recall - checked my vin on nhsta site and it did indeed have a recall from june 2006. i was never notified by ford about this recall. on the nhsta website it states that if they do not notify my within a timely manner to make repairs on the vehicle, that i should log a complaint. i am unsure the steps i should go about getting this fixed and if ford will handle the replacement. any information would be helpful

Takata recall - i received a letter from ford several months ago telling me that the replacement part (18s02) was finally at the local dealership after waiting many months on this part to arrive. i drove to the dealership and they said the part was not there, but will be in june. i called the dealership in the beginning of june, and they tell me the part will not be in until later july or even later. so, then i called the 1-866-436-7332 ford customer service line and they tell me that they have no idea when the part will be arriving at the dealerships, but they were nice enough to call the local dealership for me and have the parts department order the part specifically for me. i asked the person at the dealership when the part will arrive and he said it may be two weeks, two months, or even much longer than that. ford should not send customers letters stating that a recalled part is in the dealerships when it is actually not there. this is blatantly lying to the customers and should be punishable by law. the dealerships are ...
