Takata recall: This recall came out more than 1 year ago and Ford still does not have parts and upon calling them I was told that no one knows when they will have the parts. My truck is essentially unusable as a family vehicle because I don't want my passenger to die... my Ford truck cannot be used for what I bought it for because it is unsafe and Ford isn't doing anything to fix it.

Received the recall notice in March 2017. Contacted corwin Ford to schedule replacement, was told it would be a couple of weeks, but they scheduled an appointment date and when we arrived to have the air bags replaced, we were told they didn't have any in stock and wouldn't until August or September 2017. We called again in August, they said wouldn't have the replacement air bags until December 2017. We have called corwin Ford at the end of November and they claim now that they don't know anything about air bag replacements or that they are even getting them. We have had to drive this vehicle for work purposes. It doesn't look like the dealer is even remotely interested in getting the air bags replaced.

Takata recall. I have been on the dealership waiting list for 6+ months. They tell me they don't expect to receive replacement parts for months. I called other dealerships who indicate it may be years, if ever, before replacement parts are available. Besides being a serious health/life-threatening issue; I asked the dealer who currently offers to buy used Ranger the value of my truck; they indicate not much: They can't legally sell it in wa so they wholesale them to dealers in Oregon. I need this vehicle to Transport my grand children to school and other activities. This is placing their health and perhaps their lives at risk.
Takata recall, NHTSA recall #16V384, manufacturer recall #16S26 my Ranger is in zone a (being it originated in California), as defined by paragraph 7 of the amendment to Nov. 3, 2015 consent order issued to takata by the NHTSA on May 4, 2016. Which means it's in priority groups 4-12. I have contacted the local Ford dealer: Barber Ford in holland mi 49423 at 616-396-2361 with the NHTSA recall # as well as the manufacturer recall #. they confirmed is was a valid number. But said we don't have parts to replace. To my the best of my knowledge I have never received a recall notice from Ford Motor Company. Priority group 7 is supposed to be fixed by Dec. 31, 2017 and I have never heard from Ford Motor Co. That my vehicle is involved in the recall. I am questioning whether Ford Motor Co is treating this vehicle in a timely manner being it originated in California.

After more than a year on the recall list, there are still no parts available and no action available to fix the threat of passenger frontal airbag inflator rupture. I'm driving a time bomb with the threat of potentially serious injury or death. What can be done?
