TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL 16V-384 IN LATE APRIL. I CALLED FOR AN APPOINTMENT ON APRIL 24TH AND WAS TOLD THERE WERE NO PART IN STOCK AND THEY HAD NO IDEA WHEN PARTS WOULD BE COMING. ADDITIONALLY, THEY WOULD NOTIFY ME WHEN THE PARTS ARRIVED. I'VE WAITED A MONTH, AND CALLED AGAIN ON MAY 21ST. STILL NO PARTS IN HAND, AND NO INDICATION AS TO WHEN PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. I CONTINUE TO HAVE A CAR WITH AN OUTSTANDING RECALL. WHAT EXPECTATIONS SHOULD I HAVE WHEN NOTIFIED THAT "PARTS ARE AVAILABLE" AND INSTRUCTIONS TO "PLEASE CALL YOUR DEALER WITHOUT DELAY AND REQUEST A SERVICE DATE..."

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A 2ND LETTER FROM FORD DATED APRIL 2018 TELLING ME THAT 'PARTS ARE NOW AVAILABLE TO REPAIR YOUR VEHICLE'. I HAVE CONTACTED 3 AREA DEALERS HERE IN NO. CALIFORNIA AND NONE OF THEM HAVE PARTS OR CAN ESTIMATE WHEN THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE. THIS WHOLE SCENARIO STARTED OVER 2 YEARS AGO AND IS STILL ONGOING. FORD IS DEFINITELY NOT DOING ENOUGH TO SOLVE THIS DILEMMA AND PLAYING WITH PEOPLE'S LIVES VIA A POSSIBLE FAULTY INFLATOR. I APPRECIATE ALL THAT NHTSA HAS DONE IN THIS MATTER TO DATE, BUT MORE PRESSURE MUST BE PUT ON FORD TO EXPEDITE THIS REPAIR PROCESS.

"TAKATA RECALL" WE HAVE 3 FORD VEHICLES ALL ON RECALL LIST AND SINCE THE BEGINING OF RECALL. HAVE RECEIVED NOTICES TO HAVE REPAIRED, WHEN DEALER CONTACTED WE PLACED ON WAITING LIST AND WITH EACH NEW NOTICE WE HAVE CONTINUED TO CALL DEALER AND EACH TIME HAVE BEEN TOLD PARTS ARE ON ORDER AND WE WILL BE CONTACTED WHEN AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN SEVERAL YEARS NOW AND STILL NO FIX. THIS LAST NOTICE STATES AGAIN REPAIR IS AVAILABLE BUT DEALER CONTINUES TO STAT AS ALWAYS THEY HAVE NOT ARRIVED. NOW THE NEWS AND THE WEB SITE RECCOMENDS WE DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLES.WHEN ASK IF THEY CAN BE REMOVED OR DEACTIVATED WHILE WE WAIT FOR A REPLACEMENT THEY SAY NO. IS OUR ONLY OPTION TO TRAVEL IN A MOBILE BOMB? I AM VERY UPSET, TODAY WHEN I CALLED IF THEIR IS A WAY TO HAVE IT DISABLED UNTIL A NEW ONE IS AVAILABLE OR SOME WAY IT CAN BE REPLACED IMMEDIATLY PLEASE LET US KNOW. IT SHOULD BE A CRIME TO FORCE PEOPLE TO DRIVE IN UNSAFE VEHICLES
