I have received numerous notices about this recall, however I can not get a Ford dealer to replace the passenger side air bag, there always backed up or the do not have the parts, this has been going on for over a year, I was told not to drive the car by Ford Motor Co. Until it was repaired, yet there is always an excuse why they cant get to it. This car has sat in my garage long enough, I want it fixed
