TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED NOTICE THAT THE COMPANY IS FILING CHAPTER 11 AND I STILL HAVE AN OUTSTANDING RECALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG (THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS ALSO RECALLED BUT I HAVE HAD THAT ONE REPLACED ALREADY). I WENT TO THE RECOMMENDED WEBSITE (WWW.AIRBAGRECALL.COM) TO SEE ABOUT OBTAINING A FREE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG BUT THE RECALL STATUS SAYS 'RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE.' HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO RESOLVE THIS SAFETY ISSUE?

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN ASKING MY LOCAL DEALER WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG WILL BE REPLACED. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE SAME QUOTE FOR YEARS, "WHEN FORD FINDS A NEW SUPPLIER FOR THE TAKATA AIR-BAG WE WILL HAVE ONE FOR YOU". MY FAMILY CANNOT RIDE IN MY PASSENGER FRONT SEAT. IF THIS IS A MANDATORY RECALL, THEN WHY ISN'T FORD MADE TO REPLACE THE PART? WHY CANNOT FORD JUST USE A NEW AIRBAG IN PLACE OF THE OLD AIR-BAG? I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MANY MECHANICS THAT THE FRONT DASHBOARD OF RECENT YEAR MUSTANGS TAKE THE SAME STYLE OF AIRBAG. IF ANOTHER PERSON IS INJURED, IT WILL BE ON THE HANDS OF NHTSA FOR NOT FORCING THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG. I LIVE IN ONE OF THE HOTTEST, MOST HUMID CLIMATE CHANGING AREAS IN THE USA. SUMMERS OF HUMID 105 F. DEGREE, AND WINTERS DOWN TO 20 DEGREES. MY MUSTANG IS A CONVERTIBLE AND RECEIVES 100% OF THE HUMIDITY WHEN THE TOP IS DOWN.

TAKATA RECALL I AM COMPLAINING TODAY ABOUT SARASOTA FORD. MY CAR WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD NOT WORK AND IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH ELECTRICAL. I HAD MY FRIEND TAKE MY CAR THERE BECAUSE I HAD TO RETURN BACK TO THE MIDWEST. I DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE 19 HOURS WITHOUT WIPERS. I FIGURED SINCE IT WAS THERE I WOULD CALL AND HAVE THEM TAKE CARE OF THIS AIRBAG RECALL. I WAS TOLD EVERYTHING WAS TAKEN CARE OF AND I PAID THEM OVER THE PHONE AND WAS GOING TO FLY AND PICK IT UP THAT WEEK. HURRICANE IRMA MADE THAT IMPOSSIBLE BY THE TIME I DID PICK UP MY CAR I NEVER SPOKE TO ANY OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS SAFE TO DRIVE 19 HOURS HOME. I HAD TO EVEN WALK IN THE BACK PARKING LOT BECAUSE THE SECRETARY WHO DID HELP GET MY KEYS COULDN'T DRIVE A STICK. THERE WAS A BAG OF FOOD LEFT IN MY BACKSEAT AND MAGGOTS WAS IN MY BACKSEAT . I KNEW THEY WERE SWAMPED SO I DIDN'T EVEN COMPLAIN. I WAS ON MY WAY BACK TO KC AND MY CAR WON'T START WHEN I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. I IMMEDIATELY CALL SARASOTA FORD AND THEY PUT ME ON HOLD FOR A LONG TIME. I FINALLY HUNG UP AND SOME LOCALS HELPED ME POP START MY CLUTCH. I DROVE TWO MORE HOURS AND MY CAR STARTED OVERHEATING. I PULL OVER AND ITS STEAMING. I HAD TO GET A HOTEL ROOM IN ALABAMA SOMEWHERE AND A TOW TRUCK. IT ENDED UP BEING THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING. I THOUGHT THAT SARASOTA WOULD OF GAVE MY CAR A FULL DIAGNOSTIC TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM. I JUST WENT TO THE AIRBAGRECALL.COM BECAUSE I GOT ANOTHER REMINDER TO FIX RECALL THIS WEEK AND IT MY STILL HAS A AIRBAG RECALL. I AM JUST LUCKY MY CAR ONLY BROKE DOWN AFTER GETTING FIXED AT SARASOTA FORD. I COULD OF WRECKED AND THE AIRBAG WOULD OF BEEN FAULTY.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED MULTIPLE NOTICES OF THIS RECALL FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS. I CONTACT ALL AMERICAN FORD IN HACKENSACK AND FORD CORPORATE. BOTH STATE THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO AFFECT REPAIR DUE TO UNAVAILABILITY OF PARTS FROM TAKATA. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE AIRBAG FAILURE IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. I JUST WAS MY CAR REPAIRED. NOW I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE TAKATA BANKRUPTCY. WHY CAN'T I GET MY FORD MUSTANG REPAIRED BY FORD OR REPLACE THE AIRBAG WITH SAFER ONES?

I CONTACTED MY FORD DEALERSHIP TO SCHEDULE THE REPLACEMENT OF THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG. THEY TELL ME THEY DO NOT HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PART AND THAT THEY HAVE BEEN WAITING 1.5 YEARS TO GET THE PART. THE DEPLOYMENT OF DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS COULD RESULT IN DEATH. THE FACT THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART HAS BEEN ON ORDER FOR 1.5 YEARS AND HAS STILL NOT BEEN SENT TO FORD DEALERSHIPS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.
