TAKATA RECALL. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN UNDER A RECALL FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS. INITIALLY I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS OKAY TO ALLOW A PASSENGER TO RIDE IN THAT SEAT. THAT HAS BEEN CHANGED TO NOT ALLOW A PASSENGER. THIS IS TOO LONG FOR VERY LIMITED USE OF MY VEHICLE. OTHER PEOPLE'S FORDS HAVE BEEN REPAIRED AND I SEE WHERE FOR SOME RANGERS THE PARTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN RELEGATED TO A LESS IMPORTANT POSITION. DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF VEHICLES UNDER RECALL, BUT I AM SURE THEY'RE CAPABLE OF CREATING REPLACEMENTS IN LESS THAN TWO YEARS. WHAT'S THEIR YEARLY MANUFACTURING VOLUME?

TAKATA RECALL - BEEN WAITING FOR A PASSENGER AIRBAG REPLACEMENT SINCE MID-2016. LAST LETTER OF DECEMBER 2017 STATES 'DO NOT LET ANYONE SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT'. PARTS HAVE BEEN DELAYED, THEY SAY. MAY HAVE PARTS FOR SOME VEHICLES IN LATE SPRING 2018. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO ENSURE DEALERS MAKE LOANERS AVAILABLE IN THE MEANTIME.
