TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE RECEIVED MULTIPLE LETTERS AND PHONE MESSAGE TELLING ME TO IMMEDIATELY SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE AIRBAGS REPLACED. THESE COMMUNICATIONS ALSO INDICATE THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THEY CANNOT GET THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS AND DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL BECOME AVAILABLE. THE FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP CENTER INDICATES THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. WHO IS TELLING THE TRUTH HERE? AM I EXPECTED TO RENT A CAR INDEFINETELY? MY INSURANCE WILL ONLY COVER A RENTAL FOR FREE FOR 30 DAYS.

"TAKATA RECALL" 'YOUR DEALER IS AUTRHORIZED TO PROVIDE A RENTAL VEHICLE FOR YOUR PERSONAL TRANSPORTATION . . .' MY PROBLEM IS THE DEALER TELLS ME THAT THEY HAVE A BACK LOG ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. MY VEHICLE IS MY ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION AND I HAVE MISSED 2 DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS THAT REQUIRES ME A ONE AND ONE HALF HOUR TO DRIVE. THE PROBLEM IS THE DEALER TELLS ME THAT FORD WILL ONLY PAY FOR 2 DAYS RENTAL. I ALSO LIVE IN A RURAL AREA OF NORTH ARKANSAS. AT THIS DATE, THE DEALER IS STILL WAITING FOR THE BACK ORDER, HAS NO CARS TO RENT, AND BEING IN A RURAL AREA THERE ARE NO CAR RENTAL AGENCIES WITH IN A SHORT DISTANCE.

TAKATA RECALL- FORD REPEATEDLY SENDS NOTICE OF RECALL AND STATES PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AND TO CONTACT A DEALER FOR REPAIR. THE DEALER STATES THERE ARE NO PARTS AND WILL CONTACT ME WHEN AVAILABLE. I AM NEVER CONTACTED. THE LAST FORD RECALL LETTER STATES IN RED LETTERS "DO NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE" UNTIL THE AIRBAG REPAIR IS COMPLETED, BUT IT NEVER GETS REPAIRED BECAUSE THEY CLAIM PARTS HAVE TO BE ORDERED. I HAVE A VEHICLE THAT IS NOT SAFE AND THAT I AM NOT ABLE TO DRIVE FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. NO ASSISTANCE IS GIVEN BY FORD OR IT'S DEALERSHIPS.

TAKATA RECALL - I'M FILING A COMPLAINT WITH HOW DISORGANIZED THE TAKATA RECALL HAS BEEN. FORD NOTIFIED ME IN DECEMBER 2017 THAT MY VEHICLE WAS AFFECTED. A FEW WEEKS LETTER THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE WAS ON A DO NOT DRIVE LIST. THEY TOWED IT AND PROVIDED ME WITH A RENTAL. THEY TOLD ME PARTS WERE AVAILABLE BUT MY DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAVE BEEN WAITING ON PARTS SINCE THE BEGINNING OF JANUARY, IT'S NOW MARCH. I'M TIRED OF SEEING NOTICES THAT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE ONLY TO HAVE MY DEALER TELL ME THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE.
