I received a letter from Louisiana omv about airbag recalls in August 2018. Brought the vehicle to the dealership to have this fixed. I was informed that the parts are not in stock and that there are three other recalls on this vehicle as well. Over the past month they have continued to state that the parts were not in. Now that a man took the vehicle all of sudden they received the parts in three days. However, now they are stating that they are only replacing the passenger airbag and not all airbags as reported on the recall from la omv. What should I do" my daughter drives this vehicle and travels for school I am very concerned about what exactly they should be replacing. If all airbags needed to be replaced due to shrapnel two months ago how is it now only one needs to be replaced"

Takata recall. I contacted my local Ford/Lincoln (gordie boucher) dealer on or about July 26th, 2018 to receive a rental vehicle to drive while waiting for a new airbag replacement for my 2008 Lincoln Mkx recall to come in. The service person, mike, said he would start the process right away and I signed a note saying I would not be driving the car until fixed. Today, August 31, I called and spoke to the same service person. He said that he did not get to starting the rental car process but that he could do so today. I asked him to proceed. I honestly do not think he has.
