TAKATA RECALL -- WE WERE NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL BACK IN JUNE OF 2016 AND EACH TIME I'VE CALLED OR CHECKED ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE IS AN ISSUE, I'M TOLD THERE ARE NO PARTS, YET. THIS IS RATHER SERIOUS BECAUSE I'D RATHER THE PROBLEM NOT SHOW ITSELF WHILE I'M DRIVING WITH MY WIFE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IT'S REALLY SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF IMMEDIATELY. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING, THE REASON FOR THE RECALL IS BECAUSE OF SHRAPNEL IN THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT IN ORDER TO FIND OUT IF MY VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BY THIS. A FIX NEEDS TO BE FOUND IMMEDIATELY OR MY VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED WITH ONE THAT DOESN'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE MY VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITH PASSENGERS UNTIL IT'S DONE. *TR

TAKATA RECALL: HELLO, I AM SUBMITTING MY SECOND COMPLAINT ON BEHALF OF MY DAUGHTERS CAR WHICH HAS A PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG RECALL. I KEEP SEEING ON NBC NIGHTLY NEWS AS WELL AS OTHERS THAT THE CARS THAT WILL BE GETTING AIR BAGS REPLACED FIRST ARE THOSE IN THE SOUTH WHERE ITS HOT AND HUMID. THIS WEATHER IS NOT GOOD FOR THESE RECALLED AIR BAGS. WELL MY DAUGHTER GOES TO COLLEGE IN GAINESVILLE FLORIDA WHERE ITS 100 DEGREES AND 90% HUMIDITY IN THE SUMMERS. SHE HAS ALREADY SPENT A SUMMER UP THERE WITH THE RECALLED AIR BAG AND IS GOING TO SPEND ANOTHER SUMMER THERE WORKING. WE ARE VERY CONCERNED FOR HER SAFETY AS WELL AS HER YOUNG ADULT PASSENGERS. COLLEGE STUDENTS ALWAYS HAVE MULTIPLE PASSENGERS IN THEIR CARS AND THIS WORRIES ME SO MUCH. THE SAFETY OF HER FRIENDS IS IN JEOPARDY. JUST BECAUSE ITS HER CAR DOESN'T MEAN SHE IS NOT A PASSENGER IN HER OWN CAR. THERE ARE MANY TIMES SOMEONE ELSE WAS DRIVING AND SHE IS NOW THE PASSENGER. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO TO EXPEDITE THE REPAIR OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IN HER CAR. SHE LIVES IN AN AREA THAT IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE THESE AIR BAGS ALREADY REPAIRED. THIS COMING JULY WILL BE 1 YR SINCE WE RECEIVED THE RECALL LETTER. I AM AFRAID THAT A LAW SUIT WILL BE COMING WHEN SOMEONE GETS INJURED AS I HAVE SUBMITTED MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS AS WELL AS MANY MANY PHONE CALLS TO FORD AND NHTSA. IT SHOULD NOT BE TAKING THIS LONG ESPECIALLY WHERE THE CAR IS. I HOPE TO BE RECEIVING THE LETTER IN THE MAIL THAT HER NEW AIR BAG IS READY TO BE INSTALLED AND TO TAKE IT TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HEARING ME.... SINCERELY, A VERY WORRIED FATHER FOR HER DAUGHTERS SAFETY. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
FOUND THE VEHICLE WITH A DEAD BATTERY THIS MORNING. BATTERY IS ONLY 1.5 MONTHS OLD. JUMP STARTED THE VEHICLE AND THEN FOUND THAT WHILE RUNNING AND DOORS CLOSED, THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WAS ON AND ALL DOME LIGHTS. CHECKED ALL DOORS MULTIPLE TIMES, STILL WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. TRIED TO LOCK DOORS WHILE ENGINE RUNNING AND SINCE THE CAR BELIEVED A DOOR WAS OPENED IT IMMEDIATELY UNLOCKED ALL THE DOORS. NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO TRAVELING WITH A RISK OF A DEAD BATTERY AGAIN OR ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NO ABILITY TO LOCK THE DOORS. SEEMS FORD HAS EXACT SAME ISSUES WITH OTHER MODELS. THEY NEED TO RECALL THE 08S AS WELL.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
MY 2008 FORD EDGE (SINCE I BROUGHT IT) HAS BEEN HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE, ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE PANEL WILL LIGHT UP( WRENCH LIGHT, AIRBAG LIGHT, TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT...ETC) THE ODOMETER WILL GO OFF AND HAVE ONLY DASHES, THE CAR WILL THEN HAVE A LOSS OF ACCELERATION. THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS TRYING REALLY HARD TO STAY IN GEAR OR CHANGE GEARS.THIS WILL HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 60MPH AS WELL AS LOCAL ROADS AT LOWER SPEEDS. I WILL HAVE TO PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND PULL OVER ON THE SIDE. WE FIGURED OUT THAT IF YOU DISCONNECT THE CABLES ON THE BATTERY FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN RECONNECT THE CAR WILL THEN RUN AGAIN OK. THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY DUE TO THIS ISSUE AND HAVE BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY ALREADY. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO FORD SEVERAL TIMES ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THERE IS "NO CODE READING" SO THEY CAN NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS TO FIND OUT IF OTHER FORD EDGES HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND I CAME ACROSS A SLEW OF OTHER FORD EDGE OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED FORD SEVERAL TIMES TO BE TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THIS. *TR

TAKATA RECALL. MY DAUGHTERS FORD EDGE RECEIVED THE RECALL LETTER THAT SAID THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WAS RECALLED. THE DRIVERS WAS NOT, ONLY THE PASSENGER.

WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION ON WHEN THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL BE REPLACED. IT HAS BEEN A VERY LONG TIME SINCE WE RECEIVED THE LETTER AND CAN YOU PLEASE FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS.

TAKATA RECALL. MY COMPLAINT IS IT SEEMS LIKE THIS RECALL ISN'T BEING COMPLETED IN A TIMELY MANNER. I RECEIVED THE RECALL IN JULY 2016, CONTACTED FORD IN OCTOBER 2016 AND AS OD DECEMBER 2016 STILL NO ACTION. THAT IS NEARLY SIX MONTHS. I BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING THAT COULD RUPTURE AND SEND METAL FRAGMENTS STRIKING OCCUPANTS SHOULD NOT BE TAKING THIS LONG TO REPAIR. ANY INFORMATION AND A TIME LINE FOR REPAIR WOULD BE GREAT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPLY. CONCERNED RECALL CAR OWNER
