Recently reported AIR BAGS problems on 2007 Lincoln MKX

Takata recall - for three weeks now, i've been trying to schedule a repair on my lincoln mkx's passenger side airbag after getting the notification from lincoln motor company + my safety recall number. all four of the lincoln ford dealerships near me in washington are either (1) not calling me back, or (2) have a wait list of customers that is 450 owners deep (evergreen lincoln ford)!!! that is a two year waitlist. this recall sounds serious, but it seems the dealerships around me have zero incentive or desire to fix a potentially deadly defect in the airbag. maybe because it is free? i'm unsure but i wanted to formally log this complaint because all of the videos, letters, messages from lincoln motor company state this defect is very dangerous, but the dealerships dont care. it's terrifying that myself, my family, my children, or friends could die because of shrapnel thrown out by this defective airbag should there be an accident.

Odi #11163521 has been repaired. i no longer have a complaint.

Takata recalli have received a recall notice for my lincoln in december 2017.and my vehicle have not yet had my takata airbags repaired. i have contacted the lincoln in pines blvd many times and they do not solve the problem. i was in there with the recall notice in spring of 2018 and nothing happened.that was the date provided on the notice. we are in november 2018 and they are passing almost two years. the lincoln are expensive cars and the maintenance also cost too much. i can not believe they can not assist people in this dangerous situation.if takata airbags deploy, they spray metal debris toward vehicle occupants and may cause serious injury. safety recall notice 16s26/nhtsa recall 16v-384. i am feeling so bad with the unsafe condition of the car.

I answered the questions to see if my car was part of the recall. the computer said no. i know for a fact and i have the recall papers, but it also said there were no parts at the dealership to fix it. i live in a remote part of nebraska and a rental car is not available. so what am i to do if i cant drive my car. you system to file to be part of the settlement sucks.

Takata recall - ford/lincoln provided a mid-size suv rental for 1week and a half, then asked that i take a compact vehicle. i bought a lincoln mkx (mid size suv) and would like a similar rental while a fix/repair is provided for my vehicle. if my family wanted a compact vehicle we would've bought one, we bought a lincoln mks (mid size suv) as that's what my family needs. i would like ford/lincoln to accomodate to the level of vehicle owned. as of now, i'm being 'forced' to continue driving a vehicle that's not safe, putting my family/passengers at risk. if ford can't accomodate this may'be they should look at buying the vehicle back and i will go purchase another mid-size suv that's safe for my family. as of now, i'm driving an unsafe vehicle as ford will not provide a similar vehicle. please help!!!

Takata inflators passenger side, purchased 2007 lincoln mkx on 7/31/2018 from nourse delership in chillicothe ohio, at the time of purchase that it has a recall .nourse did not tell us about it , i want the issue resolved asap! this vehicle is used as a family vehicle daily why was this vehicle sold with a extremely dangerous issue why was i not told about this.

Takata inflator and airbag when i enter my vin regarding the takata airbags, it suggests that my vehicle has two airbag issues for which parts are not currently available. when i contacted customer service regarding the matter they also indicated that parts for my vehicle would not be available until the end of the year. however, mysteriously after complaining about poor customer service at the albany ford/lincoln dealership in albany, ga via the 1-800 customer number, my vehicle was returned to me indicating that one of the issues was resolved (passenger) and the other was a non-issue. and thus they took no action. everywhere i've read, parts are not available so i am concerned as to why my vehicle was all of a sudden "fixed" when i began filing complaints on my local dealership. i believe it is possible that i am driving around a ticking timebomb that has not yet been fixed thus jeopardizing me and my passengers. i think they are engaging in shady butisiness practices locally, but as of lately this seems nationally to be a company-wide ford/lincoln philosophy, and the local dealership is just a symptom, not the cause. from june 2018 until october 3, my vehicle was stored at the ford/lincoln dealership and i was in a rental vehicle. my vehicle was returned to me by the dealership on october 3, 2018.

Takata recall. i was notified in june of 2016 this vehicle has an issue. now i am told no fix yet and don't ride in the front seat. this is unacceptable. what are you doing about this?

Tl- contact owns a 2007 lincoln mkx ----- recall back in 2016 for passenger side airbag -- parts not available until february 2018.... contact stated she received letter from lincoln in may of 2016 and rfeceived second letter in july of 2017. called lincoln dealership was told not to use passenger seat until parts are available. mileage on vehicle is 75000.. contact called lincolns customer relations center and got no help . then called beasley ford in york pa - april 2017.

Takata recall. i have not received the appropriate notice to let me know that the part is in for repair. december 2018 will be 1 year from the initial recall notice and that has been far too long.

Takata recall - i received notice from ford recently informing me that, once again, ford has missed a deadline and cannot project a completion date. according to their november 30, 2017 letter to your office of chief counsel, ford has failed to meet their prior commitments to nhtsa and, more importantly, their vehicle owners who are left with unsafe vehicles with no assurance of a timely remedy. according to ford's letter, their failure is due to poor decisions on their part (e.g. trying a "simple" design approach). as our agents representing the millions of at-risk consumers, i expect that nhtsa will not accept their open-ended request for extension, but rather enforce commitments made by ford with appropriate actions to ensure that they are held accountable for their commitments and decisions. to do otherwise would constitute a failure of nhtsa to fulfill its mission.

Takata recall: this recall date is notice has a date of 06/01/2016. today is 12/26/2017. no answer to this recall in over 18 months. it is clear that ford/lincoln does not intend to remedy this situation which is wrong! so, i am filing a complaint to force lincoln to fix this problem before me or my wife are injured in this car due to an accident. this car is our primary mode of transportation and air bags are a very important part of vehicle safety. we always wear belts and expect the airbags to work properly in case of an accident.

Takata recall. i am filing a formal complaint due to the fact that me and my family have not been able to ride safely in our lincoln mkx for approximately a year now every time i call there is no estimated date to get the airbags. how long does the manufacturer have until they have to deem the unsafe enough to total the vehicle and reimburse us to replace the vehicle? they must deem it unsafe enough to tell us nit's not drivable with passengers. and t's not feasible to take advantage of the rental option due to having to let the car sit in the driveway, and the inconvenience of having to re-file the rental paperwork every month i have the rental though the dealership. is my car safe to drive?

My vehicle has been recalled as part of the safety recall notice 17s01 / nhtsa recall 17v-024. the dealers have no parts to remedy this defect and don't know when they will have parts. the deadline for a fix was december 31, 2017. i am concerned that the airbag supplier has filed bankruptcy - i think the auto maker should still be responsible for fixing the defect immediately.

Takata recall: i have called the dealerships in my area and they have no air bags because they have not been sent any. this poses a threat to me, my husband and my daughter.

Takata recall--dealership states no parts available to perform the recall

Takata recall passenger airbag recall remains open. no eta on parts availability from dealer. received notice the in the mail that takata was filing for bankruptcy and to contact dealer immediately for repair yet dealer has no parts. you see where this is going. i do not feel safe driving this vehicle.

Since receiving the notice for the takata air bag recall, the norm reeves lincoln in cerritos, ca. continues to inform me that the air bags are not available. they checked the vin # and determined that the passenger air bag is affected.

There is no fix , this is of high importance

Takata recall received notice of a recall for 2007 mkx march 2017 , was instructed to wait for a notification for air bag replacement. haven't heard a word from ford since. just received another notice that takata has filed chapter 11. i've called all my local dealers and no replacements are available and they have no idea of when or if any parts will be available. this is my main transportation vehicle and dont feel safe driving my family in this car with the faulty airbags.

In july 2016, i received a letter stating that this is a safety recall and that deployment of the airbag could result in serious injury or death. the letter also stated that i would be notified when the parts are available. i was told by ford motor company nearly one month ago that were still no parts available. given the possibility of injury or death, i would rather not have the airbag connected, but disabling the airbag is a violation of law. am i to violate the law in the interest of my own safety?

Takata recall......i called autonation ford wolfchase, (901) 209-1257 and they told me they don't have the air bag and cannnot get any.

Takata recall. dealer states unable to fix at this time

Takata recall: the local lincoln dealer told me that a replacement airbag is still not available. this has been several years since the original recall. so far there has not been a problem with the airbag but i understand there is a risk. i received a mailing from tk holdings advising me to schedule an appointment for a free replacement airbab right away, but the dealer says they cannot do this at this time.

Takata recall - received recall notice in the summer, contacted dealership, was told no parts available to replace. received bankruptcy notice 10/25/17, contacted dealership, still no parts available to replace. just fyi that manufacturer needs to supply fix for this recall, it's very worrysome!

There is a recall already. i purchased my vehicle in october of 2017 and checked for recalls. i saw the recall for the frontal passenger airbag inflator. i called a dealership in november of 2017 and they said there was no remedy available yet and to check back in the spring of 2018. here it is one year later and your website says there is still no remedy available. is there anything that can be done to get my airbag inflator replaced quickly? it is very dangerous for someone to ride in the front passenger seat.

Takata recall - when trying to schedule a replacement with my local lincoln dealer - service department says parts are not available. this does not seem reasonable for a recall issued in june 2016. vehicle is now in normal operation. no photo attached.
