TAKATA RECALL - THE ONLY THING THAT HAS HAPPENED YET IS THAT I RECEIVED A RECALL (#16S26) IN MID JULY, 2016. I'VE SPOKEN TO FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE, MY LOCAL DEALER AND EVEN WROTE A LETTER TO THE NHTSA BUT ALL I'M TOLD IS THAT I WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN REPAIR PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. IT'S BEEN WELL OVER A YEAR NOW AND I WANT THIS FIXED! I WAS TOLD THAT IF THE MANUFACTURER HAS FAILED OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE IN A TIMELY MANNER THAT I SHOULD FILE AN ONLINE COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA SO THAT IS WHAT I'M DOING.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD IN JULY 2016 INFORMING ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THE TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE HEARD NOTHING SINCE THEN. EVERY TIME MY WIFE HAS TO RIDE IN MY TRUCK, SHE AND I BOTH WORRY THAT I MIGHT BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND SHE COULD BE INJURED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. WOULD IT BE SAFER IF I COULD JUST HAVE THE AIRBAG DISCONNECTED?

TAKATA RECALL. IN JULY OF 2016, I RECEIVED A NOTICE INFORMING ME OF A DANGEROUS, FAULTY AIRBAG INFLATOR IN MY VEHICLE. THE NOTICE SAID I WOULD BE INFORMED AS SOON AS FORD IS ABLE TO CONDUCT A CORRECTIVE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF PROBLEMATIC PART. IT IS NOW OCTOBER 2017, AND I STILL HAVEN'T RECEIVED SUCH A COMMUNICATION; I HAVE CONFIRMED THIS UNAVAILABILITY OF REMEDIAL REPAIRS ONLINE. THE 15+ MONTH WAIT TIME TO HAVE THIS POTENTIALLY LETHAL DEFECT CORRECTED I CONSIDER UNACCEPTABLE.
