"takata recall" I received notice of a recall over a year ago. No remedy is available at the dealership yet. I wonder if they ever intend to fix this safety issue.
Takata recall. Local dealership is unable to repair the defect because they do not have the necessary parts. Airbags have not deployed, just want to get it repaired.
Takata recall. Checked with local Ford dealer today and was told parts to fix the airbag are not available and unknown when they would become available. This continues to be a safety risk.
Takada recall - this recall is for my daughter's passenger side air bag. We have been waiting since March of 2017 the date we received the recall notice from Ford, to get the airbag replaced. Everytime she drives that car or has a passenger in her car it is a safety hazzard knowing other drivers and passenger's have died while waiting for the part or parts to be replaced. I am appalled at the lack of urgency on the car manufacturer's and takeda to fix all the vehichles involved in the recall considering the price to pay is with someone's life. This is absolutely unacceptable. Unfortunately for my daughter and many other's affected, the parts will not be available any time soon which is unacceptable.

"takata recall" snd I was driving vehicle when turn signals on both front right and left side stopped working. Right front turn signal just stayed on, so I had to disconnect it otherwise it would have drained the battery. I replaced both bulbs with new ones, still did not work. I get a message saying check right front and left front turn signals. I have found out that this has happened to a lot of 2006 Ford Fusion, it is a safety issue when cars front signal indicators dont work. I was told the smart junction box needs to be replaced. Ford has known about this problem, and done nothing!
