Takata recall I have received a letter in the mail about the recall and talked to the Ford dealership and Lincoln and called Lincoln about it and I drive literally 6 hours a day 5 days a week in my car long distance I do not feel safe driving this car at all and I talked to someone in detroit motor company and they said if its a issue I could bring it into Lincoln and get a loaner until its fixed they told me it could take up to 12 months just to get the parts. I live in Florida inside my car when it sits it gets up to 130 degrees in my car and I just do not feel safe driving this car at all to the point where its taking my concentration off the road from what she told me can I take my car to Lincoln to get a loaner and let my car sit?

Takata recall - notice of "recall" received 7/29/16 to which Lincoln motor company stated that there is no remedy available. In researching it was found that the company predicted that a resolution would be available through 2019 by state in which it was noted that my state, California, was not even listed. I suggested that a comparable loaner be made available or dealer authorization be expedited to disable the air bag. Lincoln response dated 8/5/16 was received 8/13/16 in which the company merely stated "at this point, the guidelines for this recall do not include a loaner vehicle". in that the company did not elaborate on "the guidelines" nor respond to whether or not the legislation to disable the bag has been legislated I am in receipt of a non-response and certainly see that this is not anything that could be considered a "recall". further does the company and NHTSA expect the owner of these vehicles to continue to drive and occupy these lethal vehicles?
