The car is subject to NHTSA recall number 18V046. It is my mother's car who no longer drives, and so I wasn't aware of the recall until I attempted to trade it in this month. I called the service department at olathe Ford in olathe ks and was told the car is safe to drive as long as no one sits in the passenger seat. I found this remark to be rather ludicrous and asked to speak with a manager. The "manager" rudely stated that nothing could be done because they didn't have replacement parts. I asked to speak with the dealership general manager and the person promptly hung up. Coincidentally, I had the car appraised at carnax in merriam ks in April 2018 and they made an offer without mentioning the airbag recall.

Takata recall. Ford failed to notify me of the airbag recall that happened over 2 years ago. I only found out about it because I read a news article that mentioned it. This is the second time Ford has failed to notify me of a recall, even after company reps said my information was updated after I took my vehicle to be serviced after my car's engine failed (in line with the first recall). My vehicle is registered properly and I have bought it new. I don't understand why this dishonest company keeps operating and risking people's lives. I have passengers in my car every day and it's unconsionable that I have not been properly notified of the company's failures. I will sue the company for their failures.

Takata inflators - I believe. Ford still doesn't have a way to fix the recall. It's been going on for a long time. Shouldn't they have a fix by now? no accident or issue as of yet, but this needs to be addressed and fixed asap!

Takata recall notice 16S26 / NHTSA recall 16V-384 received letter July 2016 regarding passenger airbag inflator replacement on vehicle. Passengers should not occupy seat. Remedy part was supposed to be available spring 2018. I'm still waiting!!! living in southern California I have been in several accidents which were not my fault.

Takata recall I called my mooresville, N.C. Ford dealership to schedule a replacement of the defective passenger airbag and the replacement part is not yet available. It may not be available until the end of this year..2018. My recall letter indicates the Ford Motor Company will pay for a rental car at $30 a day and the owner has to carry and pay for the insurance on the rental vehicle. The rental company my Ford dealer contracts through cheapest rental is $35 per day which would leave me paying approximately $140 per month for the rental and approximately an extra $50 or more a month for insurance I am already paying for a affected vehicle plus monthly insurance that has a recall for a defective recall that is not my fault! I am a senior citizen and drive my car on a daily basis with my grandchildren and loved ones in my car and don't want to take the risk of death or injury to any of them.. with the age of my car and the summer heat and humidity I do not want to chance that! I do not feel I should have to pay anything extra for a rental for a recall putting my family in harm's way or even death that is not my fault! the Ford Motor Company should be made to pay the entire cost of the rental vehicle! if indeed your goal and policy is to make sure these car manufacturers do their part to insure my safety...then Ford Motor Company needs to be totally accountable and pay everything. None of the cost should be passed to the owner of the affected vehicle. I called Ford headquarters customer service with my concern about the danger which they urge the owner to get the airbag replaced and not drive it...but yet the part is not available as yet.....and maybe 6 months or more... & yet won't pay the total cost for my Ford dealer ship to rent me a car is totally ridiculous! they essentially said "sorry" that's all we are allowing $30 a day.

Takata recall Ford sent us a letter telling us to go to our Ford dealer and the Ford was to authorize them to provide us a free rental car; all of which seems to mean the issue is very serious. However, all the dealer is doing is taking names, addresses, and information. They refuse to tell us when we might get repair parts or a rental vehicle. Capital Ford Lincoln and Mercury of wilmington (nc)'s service writer told me that they couldn't "just send us down to enterprise to get a car." When I asked why not, he shrugged. Ford has been selling new cars and I presume they have air bags in them. All of which makes me feel Ford didn't think our lives are worth diverting parts from new cars to fix the ones they dropped the ball on in the first place. Will you please do whatever you can to get us help? it would surely be appreciated.

Takata recall - it has been 2 years since this issue was identified and I have yet to have a definitive date as to when the issue will be resolved. It is putting me in a bind since I have to Transport my children and wife in the car and have to use the passenger seat on occasion. It is hard for me to believe that it would take over 2 years to resolve.
