Takata recall I'm still waiting for available parts to fix the passenger airbag in my vehicle. The driver's side was remedied rather quickly a few years ago but have yet to receive notice that the passenger side can be replaced. Now, today, I received notice that takata holdings is filing for chapter 11 bankruptcy, which leaves me to believe the company will dissolve or be sold "free and clear" leaving me (and many others) with a vehicle that will never be properly made whole.

Takata recall - when the driver airbag was recalled, I specifically requested information regarding the passenger airbag and whether a similar replacement would be required. I was told there was no issue with the passenger airbag. I later came to find out a notice of the problem had already been posted and the dealer had misrepresented the facts. My car has sat in the garage for over a year. When Ford is questioned, they suggest NHTSA has deemed it safe to continuing driving. I suggest that Ford should assume the liability should I continue to drive the vehicle, however, Ford continues to identify NHTSA as being the responsible party.

Takata recall : the first recall for the drivers side air bag was issued around may of 2015 and finally parts arrived to complete the recall around may-June 2016. Within weeks of that time a second recall was received for the passenger side air bag which is now dated 6/1/2016. It has now been over a year and no update for this current recall and Ford will not grant a loaner vehicle until the repair is made. My wife will not ride in the vehicle until the recall has been completed and over 1 year for a safety recall seems very irresponsible. Please help get my wife back into my automobile. I live in orlando Florida where heat and humidity are also considered to be factors in the air bag failures.

Takata recall. This problem is unexceptable I have been waiting for more than a year for the passenger air bag recall. I have a small child that has to use that seat on a daily drive. I cannot beleave that Ford is allowed to sell new cars that have the latest new air bags but I have to endanger the life of a small child every time I put them in the seat. This recall needs to have a highest priority that can be given there is no excuse for a modern car company not to fix all cars involved before they can sell any new ones. Ford does not want me as a grandfather that has lost a loved one becuse it puts new car sales over the saftiey of one that they have allready sold and collected the proffit on. The NHTSA needs to put pressure on them to fix the claymore mine!!!!! that is in my dash.
