TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 16S26/NHTSA RECALL 16V-384 FROM THE FORD MOTOR CO.IN JULY 2016 THAT THEIR WAS A RECALL ON THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIR BAG INFLATOR AND IT MAY RUPTURE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH NECESSITATING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. IN THE RECALL NOTICE IT SAID THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME AND WHEN THEY WERE AVAILABLE THEY WOULD NOTIFY ME VIA MAIL. I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE MANY TIMES AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND THAT FORD WILL NOTIFY ME WHEN THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. I CONTACTED FORD MOTOR CO, CUSTOMERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT BY PHONE AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING, WHEN THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE THEY WILL NOTIFY ME. IT IS NOW OCTOBER 2017 AND STILL HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE ME WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

TAKATA RECALL. NOTIFICATION OF JULY 2016 STATED MY VEHICLE WAS UNDER THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 16S26 / NHTSA RECALL 16V-384. SINCE THEN, THERE HAS BEEN NO ACTIVITY OR CORRESPONDENCE. HAVE PLACED NUMEROUS CALLS TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO INFORMED ME THEY HAVE NO REPLACEMENTS. NOW I AM NOTIFIED OF THE TAKATA BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS WITH IMPLICATIONS I MAY LOSE ANY LEGAL RECOURSES IF THE REPAIR IS NOT MADE. WHY HAS NO FURTHER ACTIVITY BEEN PURSUED TO SATISFY MY RECALL? HOW DO I PROTECT MYSELF AND FAMILY FROM PENDING DISASTER?

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP TWICE ABOUT THIS AFTER I GOT MY RECALL LETTER AND THEY SAY THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I EVEN CONTACTED FORD MOTOR CO AND THEY PUT ME OFF TOO. HUFF FORD IN WYTHEVILLE VA IS THE DEALERSHIP (1-888-475-0584). NO ACCIDENTS YET, BUT I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE FOR ANYONE TO ERIDE WITH ME OR TO TAKE LLONG TRIPS. PLEASE HELP SINCE NO ONE ELSE WILL.

TAKATA RECALL IT'S BEEN 17 MONTHS SINCE I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY TELLING ME THE NEED TO GET NEW AIRBAGS. THE AIRBAGS HAVEN'T DEPLOYED, BUT I DRIVE THIS CAR DAILY AND AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY. LAST WEEK MY LOCAL FORD DEALER SAID, IT COULD BE 2 DAYS, 2 WEEKS, 2 MONTHS, OR 2 YEARS BEFORE WE GET REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS." THEY WEREN'T VERY HELPFUL. THAT'S SIMPLY NOT ACCEPTABLE ... IT'S BEEN 17 MONTHS ALREADY!! IS THERE AN ALTERNATIVE WAY TO GET REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS??
