Takata recall: I took my truck into a deeler over two years ago to get this recall fixed, and was told that they had no replacement parts and would contact me when they were available. I have contacted the dealer and you to get a paper allowing the air bags to be disabled. I am handicapped and frequently require someone (wife) to assist me. I have just seen on tv that 20 people have died from takata air bag ruptures. I will not let anyone ride in the passenger seat until it gets fixed. The dealership that is nearist to me said that they have no loner vehicles for this recall. Please advise

I need to get a waiver from the national safety administration to have Ford disable my passenger side airbag until such time that they repair it. No passenger can ride in this truck without risking serious injury. I should be able to use my truck and carry passengers safely.there is no real date given by Ford as to when the repair is to be completed.
