Takata recall I have been waiting over 11 months since being informed that my vehicle has a defective airbag via a mailed notice from Ford. The recall still indicates "remedy not available". how long am I supposed to wait to have what is being described as a fragmentation grenade in my dashboard replaced " I don't believe Ford is doing due diligence on this I've been worried about this issue for over 11 months, which I think is long enough. Is there anything I can do "

"takata recall" Ford Motor Company, along with the NHTSA, knows this vehicle can be a death trap. Ford Motor Company chooses to disregard the occupants safety, by dragging there feet. I submit this vehicle should be replaced, and taken off the road now, not wait until parts can be manufactured, sometime down the road as they state. Should I allow my family or myself to be exposed to serious injury or death by Ford Motor Co and the nhsta" I submit these vehicles should be taken off the road! and replaced immediately. How many serious injuries and or deaths does it take? is there a number"

Takata recall I have a 2011 Ford Ranger, and in July 2016 I recieved a letter saying their is a safety recall notice 16S26/NHTSA recall 16V-384. This recall says the air bag if deployed could cause serious injury or death. I called Ford on Feb.-28-2017, and was told the same thing. I told them I would like Ford to give me a rental truck to use until the parts come in, since my loved ones are setting in the passenger seat. I was advised that they would not give me a rental truck. I ask for a superviser to call. 3-1-2017 stacy called and left a message, 3-2-2017 at 1:55P jasmine called and left message saying no parts and didn't mention rental. This has gone on too long, putting my loved ones in danger, and Ford is still building trucks with new airbags. Ford is not being responsive!!
