"takata recall" I have received the recall papers like 7 months ago and I cant get any answers from anyone not even a dealership will give me answers about this and why I cant get it fixed I drive my car every day and I am in the Florida heat also I don't feel safe driving the car and I have no choice but to drive a death trap. I would like answers and why its taking almost a year for a air bag to be replaced which don't make sense at all Ford builds new cars everyday in a factory probably thousands a week but they cant replace a air bag on a car that they already sold someone that they are driving? don't make sense to me at all that building a car they haven't sold yet is more important than someone's life that bought there slap together china made air bags I want this forwarded to whoever is in charge because I am contacting a lawyer about this because its unsafe and very dangerous to me and other people that are on the road when my car is on the road! I want some kind of answer and if a lawyer has to be involved to get an answer then so be it!

Takata recall. I was not informed of any issue with the vehicle airbags until receiving a letter in July 2016 that stated the passenger frontal airbag might rupture and kill the occupant of that seat ' who most commonly happens to be my pregnant wife. It was first reported in November 2014 by the New York times that takata was aware of the issue. One can only speculate how much earlier the company officials were aware of the problem. That thought aside, it is criminal that it took Lincoln 20 months to determine they had the affected airbags in this vehicle and alert the owners of said vehicles. It has now been 5 months since I received the letter. During this time period I have contacted the company many times and never have they been able to offer any information whatsoever. It has been over 2 years since they determined the airbag in my vehicle can kill my pregnant wife if ever deployed. This is completely unacceptable. My specific vehicle is 8 years old and I live in the panhandle of Florida. Considering those two factors I am in the highest risk category. How have I not been contacted to have this fixed" at the very least, why have I not been offered a loaner vehicle while they figure out how to solve the problem" it certainly feels like Lincoln is considering my wife's life a financial risk they are willing to take. The way this has been handled is inconceivable. Please have Lincoln look to make my vehicle a priority. I am an active duty service member who will be relocating across the country in March 2017 and am highly concerned that at any point during the drive my wife and unborn child may be killed by a known issue.
