Takata recall - we were notified June 1 2016 and have not received notification for the repair to be completed. Why has it taken this long, and the possibility of a collision without a working air bag is not good.

Takata recall- Ford dealership still has no remedy for replacements even though this recall was from 6-1-2016. Recall number 16V384 Ford recall number 16S26. We called as soon as we received notice and were told they would contact us when replacement parts were available. As of today, 10-31-17, we have yet to get any notice and when you go on line to Ford dealership, it still states parts are not yet available. (recall incomplete, remedy not yet available.) this is very concerning as this should have been available at time of recall.
Takata recall - my vehicle is involved in the takata air bag recall and I contacted my local dealer as requested concerning this recall. They advised that they have no parts availability date for necessary parts to replace or repair the passenger air bag in my vehicle. They also indicated that the VIN indicates that the driver air bag is not noted as being a takata item or it has previously been serviced as I have had this vehicle since July 2015 and have no knowledge of anything prior to that time. My local Ford dealer indicates that to their knowledge nothing is in work to furnish the parts necessary to correct the issue with the takata air bags other then their recent filing for bankruptcy which certainly indicates these necessary parts most likely will not be forthcoming. Is the NHTSA involved in any action to assist in making the necessary recall parts available to the Ford service network so our vehicles can be repaired or what other action can be pursued to resolve this unsafe situation with these vehicles?.

Takata recall - I was involved in an accident involving a deer hit in October 2017 which caused my airbag to deflate improperly. The plastic ruptured, the airbag only partially inflated and the plastic came back and punctured my stomach. If I would not have had my seatbelt on, it would have gone deep into my stomach, possibly causing surgery. I never received an airbag recall notice prior to this incident. I had purchased in the truck in December 2014. My vehicle ended up totaled in the accident, but I knew there was a problem with the inflation of the airbag.
"takata recall" notified in July 2016 that passenger airbag was a safety hazard. Told they would call when the part was available. Called Ford customer service in June 2017 and told the parts were still not available and this was not really a safety hazard and I would be contacted when the parts are available. Received a letter today from Ford that they want me to voluntarily participate in an "important safety research study" to "replace the takata driver airbag inflator free"/ "this is not a safety recall". so they have the parts to replace the driver side that has not been recalled and after 16 months Ford still hasn't the parts to replace the passenger airbag that is a safety hazard. Something is wrong at Ford/
