TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN ON THE DEALERSHIP WAITING LIST FOR 6+ MONTHS. THEY TELL ME THEY DON'T EXPECT TO RECEIVE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR MONTHS. I CALLED OTHER DEALERSHIPS WHO INDICATE IT MAY BE YEARS, IF EVER, BEFORE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. BESIDES BEING A SERIOUS HEALTH/LIFE-THREATENING ISSUE; I ASKED THE DEALER WHO CURRENTLY OFFERS TO BUY USED RANGERS THE VALUE OF MY TRUCK; THEY INDICATE NOT MUCH: THEY CAN'T LEGALLY SELL IT IN WA SO THEY WHOLESALE THEM TO DEALERS IN OREGON. I NEED THIS VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT MY GRAND CHILDREN TO SCHOOL AND OTHER ACTIVITIES. THIS IS PLACING THEIR HEALTH AND PERHAPS THEIR LIVES AT RISK.

TAKATA RECALL, NHTSA RECALL #16V384, MANUFACTURER RECALL #16S26 MY RANGER IS IN ZONE A (BEING IT ORIGINATED IN CALIFORNIA), AS DEFINED BY PARAGRAPH 7 OF THE AMENDMENT TO NOV. 3, 2015 CONSENT ORDER ISSUED TO TAKATA BY THE NHTSA ON MAY 4, 2016. WHICH MEANS IT'S IN PRIORITY GROUPS 4-12. I HAVE CONTACTED THE LOCAL FORD DEALER: BARBER FORD IN HOLLAND MI 49423 AT 616-396-2361 WITH THE NHTSA RECALL # AS WELL AS THE MANUFACTURER RECALL #. THEY CONFIRMED IS WAS A VALID NUMBER. BUT SAID WE DON'T HAVE PARTS TO REPLACE. TO MY THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY. PRIORITY GROUP 7 IS SUPPOSED TO BE FIXED BY DEC. 31, 2017 AND I HAVE NEVER HEARD FROM FORD MOTOR CO. THAT MY VEHICLE IS INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. I AM QUESTIONING WHETHER FORD MOTOR CO IS TREATING THIS VEHICLE IN A TIMELY MANNER BEING IT ORIGINATED IN CALIFORNIA.

TAKATA RECALL -- IN JANUARY, 2017, I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE AIRBAGS IN MY FORD RANGER HAVE BEEN RECALLED. THE LETTER STATES THAT I WILL RECEIVE NOTICE WHEN REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS ARE AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN 11 MONTHS AND NO ONE HAS CONTACTED ME REGARDING REPLACEMENT. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE RISK OF INJURY TO MYSELF AND PASSENGER SHOULD THE AIRBAGS NEED TO DEPLOY. IT SEEMS AS IF THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT TAKING THE RECALL REPLACEMENT SERIOUSLY. FRIENDS ARE NERVOUS TO RIDE WITH ME. I FEAR THAT THE INACTION WILL ALSO DECREASE THE TRUCK'S VALUE.
