Takata recall: I have been trying to get my passenger airbag replaced since the recall came out in February and I have been blown off 3 times by the dealership. The first time I called I was told by a service dept. Rep that they had to order the parts in March and to call back in 5 weeks if they did not call me. At the beginning of may I called and I was told they had no record of me calling and talking to anyone at the dealership. They once again took my information and I talk with a marissa. Again I was asked to check back in a month if I was not contacted. Last week I contacted the dealership again and once again I was told that nobody had ordered the parts. This time someone named carla took my information and set up an appointment to come into surprise Ford dealership at 7am to get my truck fixed only to find out from them that I was not in the system and no parts were ordered. They told me that they have a service center in Florida answer the phones when they are busy and they never set up anything. Now almost 6 months after the recall I have yet to get any action done on my truck not from my part. This is really a messed up system and a waste of my time for nothing. Something should be brought and done to this dealership and others if they operate this way. It comes across as though they don't care about the recall until it is too late.
Takata recall. After receiving a recall notice I promptly went to my local Ford dealer (andy shaw Ford in sylva, nc) in February 2019. After more than a month they told me to come in and they would take care of it. I continue to receive recall notices, almost three months after they said it was repaired (3/28/19). How do I go about determining whether the airbag was actually replaced or not?
Called dealer (sunshine Ford-newburg, NY) and got an appointment for 3/19/2019, but they cancelled because the bag didn't arrive. I was told I would be notified when they received one. I got a second notice in April and called sunshine back. They again said they would call when the bag arrived. I got a postcard from Ford, so I called and explained my situation. I was put on hold while they tried to call the dealer. They tried two times when I was holding but no one answered. I was told they would call me when they spoke with sunshine, that was 5/21, I still haven't heard. Now I received a notice from NY state dept. Of motor vehicles telling me it is urgent. What more can I do?

When scheduling a recall for the airbag I was told my local dealer would not have the part for 3 to 4 weeks and was told to try another dealer 15 miles away. Ford put me on a list at the local dealer. The recall(19S01 /NHTSA recall 19V-001) that I received states both the driver and passenger will be replaced, they are only replacing the passenger airbag and that a loaner vehicle can be provided for free. The recall also states do not drive your vehicle until the recall repair has been completed. Ford was not willing to issue a loaner vehicle until my local dealer was able to obtain the required parts and wanted me to schedule at a dealer 15 miles away.

Ford has told me that I can only get the recall work performed at a Ford dealer. I live in juneau, Alaska. We have no Ford dealer and there are no roads to juneau. Affordable auto repair in juneau (907-790-9332 rusty, srvc mgr) has already done some of the airbag recall work (notice #19S01), but Ford has now put a halt to this work by affordable auto repair and will not provide dealer support to order the parts and reimburse affordable auto for the work. There are many Ford owners in juneau and we are being put in danger, because Ford will not allow this recall work to be performed at anywhere other than a Ford dealer, even thought we have no Ford dealer in juneau and no roads to drive hundreds of miles and days away to the "closest" Ford dealer. Ford's solution in unrealistic and unfair for Alaska Ford owners. Ford is putting Alaska residents in danger. We need immediate resolution to this issue. The Ford helpline and online chat has not been helpful in bringing this to a resolution..
The advanced trac light stayed on all the time. Took to Ford dealer and costed $100 to check light, they said was restraint control module, it affected brakes, advanced trac, air bags and anti-tip over device. The vehicle only had 3500 miles on it. The part is rediculously priced!! $650 is outrageous!!!

I was first notified in January. Have received 2 letters from Ford, stating parts were available. It is now June and still np parts. I am number 13 on list at garber Ford, gcs for repair. I cannot drive vehicle or if I do, I am at risk. What is problem with Ford or supplier? truck is now useless to me.
Takata recall I have received a letter for repair from Ford. The letter specifies to call Ford Motor Company to set an appointment to replace the passenger side air bag, but when I called them they told me to call don davis Ford in arlington tx to obtain an appointment for the replacing of the passenger air bag, so I call them and they said they did not have parts yet for the repair, so I called Ford Motor Company and they said they will set an appointment as soon as they get the parts available and until this day I haven't received a call from them again. Right now the heat in the area where I live is bad and I am scare that the passenger air bag might explode. For your information the letter I have received has a posted date of April 2018. Thanks and please let me know.
