TAKATA RECALL INITIAL NOTICED WAS RECEIVED IN THE MAIL IN JULY 2016, BUT NEVER RECEIVED A FOLLOW UP LETTER STATING WHERE THE CAR WOULD BE SERVICED AND IF THEY EVEN HAD FOUND THE RIGHT PART FOR MY CAR. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION TO MY JOB WHICH IS 30 MILES AWAY AND REALLY WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR OVER 1 YEAR TO HAVE MY AIRBAG THAT'S UNDER RECALL REPLACED. EVERYTIME I CALL I GET THE SAME ANSWER - "WE DON'T HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PART YET". MY SUBARU THAT WAS UNDER THE AIRBAG RECALL HAD ITS BAG REPLACE A YEAR AGO. I WANT THIS AIRBAG REPLACED. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL DIFFERENT FORD DEALERS.

TAKATA RECALL. RECEIVED RECALL NOTIFICATION LETTER DATED JULY, 2016. HAVE RECEIVED NO FURTHER COMMUNICATION. RATHER THAN DRIVE A TICKING TIME BOMB, I DECIDED TO SELL THE VEHICLE. LOCAL FORD DEALER REFUSED TO QUOTE A PRICE OFFER FOR SAID VEHICLE. CHEAPER FOR FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO PAY INJURY OR DEATH CLAIMS THAN DO THE RIGHT THING?

TAKATA RECALL - PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR COULD RUPTURE IF THE VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN A CRASH WHERE THE SUPPLEMENTAL FRONTAL AIRBAGS ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY. THIS HAS TAKEN WAY TOO LONG. WE RECEIVED NOTIFICATION JULY 2016 - ONE YEAR AGO! WE ARE IN A VERY HUMID AREA AND THIS IS A CITY VEHICLE THAT HANDLES MOSQUITO CONTROL. WE ARE IN MOSQUITO SEASON AND NEED THIS VEHICLE!
