IT HAS BEEN ONE YEAR SINCE I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM FORD FOR NHTSA RECALL 16V-384 THAT THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND COULD RUPTURE IF DEPLOYED. YESTERDAY I WENT TO A LOCAL DEALER FOR THE FOURTH TIME AND WAS INFORMED THAT FORD STILL DOES NOT HAVE REPLACEMENT INFLATORS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. PLEASE DEMAND THAT THEY OBTAIN REPLACEMENT INFLATORS.

POWER TRAIN
THE CLUTCH PEDAL ASSEMBLY BROKE AT ONE OF THE WELDS WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A CITY STREET. THE PEDAL LOST TOTAL FUNCTION AND FELL TO THE FLOOR AND I COULDN'T SHIFT GEARS. WHILE STILL IN MOTION, I ATTEMPTED TO PULL THE PEDAL UP USING THE TOP OF MY FOOT. THE PEDAL THEN REVERTED ALL THE WAY UP UNDER THE DASH AND COULD NOT BE REACHED AT ALL. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND PARK THE CAR INTO THE NEAREST LOT.
