Takata recall - I am still waiting for Ford to remedy my vehicle regarding this recall. It has been a year since my first call for help and I have actually called two Ford dealers, one in fairfax, va and the other in chantilly, va. Both claimed they were out of stock and would call me as soon as they had some. I followed up with both after several months only to get the same excuse. In all of this time I have received absolutely no communication from Ford. No acknowledgements of my recall request, no updates, no status, no estimated time for arrival, absolutely nothing.

Takata recall - I am greatly concerned as to how long this recall is taking. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Note: Below, I am being asked for a date "when did this happen?" nothing has happened, I was just notified of this recall quite a long time ago and there is still no solution. Due to this, I will just put today's date. Thank you very much.

Takata recall. The recall was issued on June 1, 2016 and parts are still not available for this passenger airbag recall. I am not able to fully utilize this vehicle since we do not have a passenger in the car due to the airbag problem. Very disappointed with the timeliness of the repair as it is approaching 1 year on the recall notice.

"takata recall" I was notified by letter dated July 2016 of the recall16V-384 and so far the defective airbag has not been replaced. The dealer told me yesterday they may have the part within the next quarter but are not sure. It will be almost a year since I was notified of this potentially life threatening issue. Apparently Ford does not care about its customer's. I was told by a representattve at Ford headquarters I could sue the dealer if a passenger was injured or died as a result of the defective airbag. The bottom line is I would like to have the defective airbag replaced immediately and something done so Ford is not able to continue to risk lives for such an extended period when it knows of a major safety defect.

Takata recall: We received a recall letter for the right side airbag (16V-384) July 2016, and now in Feb 2017 we are still waiting on parts to be available with no expected date. Note we had already waited over a year for the driver side airbag (that recall letter was from July 2015) which was finally resolved, and why both weren't recalled at the same time boggles me. Please push the parties to resolve replacing the right air bag. Driving essentially in a dangerous condition with air bag recalls spanning for a year and a half now is not acceptable.

Takata recall I've had a recall (passenger front) since June of 2016. The remedy is still not available. This is negligent and unacceptable....and someone should be criminally charged for this (for my vehicle and all the others).
