I RECEIVED A LETTER JULY OF 2016 FOR A RECALL ON MY CAR. AS OF TODAY I HAVE NO OTHER INFORMATION GIVE AS TO A FIX OR WHERE TO TAKE MY CAR TO GET THE TAKATA INFLATORS FIXED. CAN I GET INFORMATION ON THIS RECALL AND WHEN IT WILL BE FIXED. BEEN THAT THIS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, THIS IS VERY UNSAFE FOR PASSENGERS IN THIS VEHICLE.

SEATS
LEFT SIDE BOLSTER OF DRIVER SEAT EASILY BREAKS. CANNONT FIND A NON- BROKEN ONE AT ANY SALVAGE YARD. AND NO LOCAL FORD AND LINCOLN DEALER WANTS TO FIX IT BECAUSE IN THE EVENT OF HAVING TO REPLACE THE SEAT IN ORDER TO FIX THE SEAT. THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER DOZENS OF SMALL PARTS. EVEN A LOCAL BODY SHOP REFUSED TO FIX IT BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T FIND ME A USED ONE WITHOUT THAT BOLSTER BROKEN. IN MY CASE I WAS LEANING BACK TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF THE BACK SEAT AND IT BROKE. I DO THIS ALL THE TIME IN OTHER CARS AND NEVER HAVE THIS TROUBLE. I ONLY WEIGH 150LBS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SAFTEY ISSUE AND WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENS ONLY TO THE LEFT BOLSTER. THE SEAT WILL LOOK NORMAL UNTILL YOU MOVE THE BOLSTER BACK AND FORTH.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON A HIGHWAY WHEN THE CAR STALLED OUT. I TRIED REPEATEDLY TO RE-START BUT IT KEPT STALLING. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A LINCOLN DEALERSHIP NEAR MY HOME AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY AND PCM HAD TO BE REPLACED WHICH COST ME $2128. AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT, MY CAR HAD 91,860 MILES. I NOTICED ON THE LINCOLN CHAT SIGHT THAT OTHER OWNERS COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. I WAS SURPRISED TO LEARN THAT THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DEFECT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. HOPING THAT THE NTSB WOULD FURTHER INVESTIGATE. THANK YOU.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
IN SUDDEN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS, WHEN ONES REACTION TO HITTING THE HORN TO GET THE OTHER DRIVERS ATTENTION, THE HORN DOES NOT WORK. AFTERWARDS I WOULD TRY THE HORN IN A NON-EMERGENCY SITUATION WHEN ONE HAS TIME TO LOOK, THINK AND PRESS THE HORN BOTTON, LOWER MIDDLE CENTER THE HORN DOES WORK. WITH TWO HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL AT 10 O'CLOCK AND 2 O'CLOCK, ONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO USE THEIR THUMBS TO APPLY THE HORN, BUT THAT TAKES WAY TOO MUCH PRESSURE. THE SIDE HORN ACTIVATOR NEEDS TO BE MUCH MORE SENSITIVE. ACCIDENTS, INJURIES AND DEATHS COULD BE AVOIDED IF THE SIDE HORN ACTIVATOR IS MUCH MORE SENSITIVE.

THE REAR BACKUP LIGHT TO LESS THAN ADIQUATE. AT NIGHT WHEN BACKING UP THE LIGHT IS SO DIM THAT I'M UNSURE IF THERE ARE NO OBSTICLES IN THE WAY, LIKE PEOPLE AND CARS. A BRIGHTER LIGHT COULD AVOID BACKING UP ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES AND POSSIBLE DEATHS.

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY (17S01) STATING THE AIRBAG ON MY VEHICLE WAS DEFECTIVE AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN 1 YEAR AND NO NOTIFICATION. I BELIEVE THE MANUFACTURE HAS HAD SUFFICIENT TIME TO PRODUCE THE PART AND DISTRIBUTE TO DEALERS TO CORRECT THIS DEFICIENCY, YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. THUS FAR THEIR HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENT AND IT IS UNKNOWN IF THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY PROPERLY SHOULD A COLLISION OCCUR.

TAKATA RECALL MY VEHICLES AIRBAG HAS BEEN ON RECALL FOR 2 YRS.WITH NO REPLACEMENT YET AVAILABLE. THERE HAS BEEN DEATHS CAUSED BY THIS ISSUE. IT'S PAST TIME TO FORCE THE MANUFACTURER TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PART, AND/ OR SUSTAIN A SUFFICIENT FINE. THAT WOULD BE ON TOP OF MY PERSONAL LAWSUIT FOR LOSS OF LIFE AND/OR INJURY. HARD TO COMPREHEND WHY THEY'RE GETTING BY FOR SO LONG.

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS NOTIFIED 22 MONTHS AGO ABOUT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. LINCOLN HAS DONE NOTHING AND CONTINUES TO DELAY REPLACING THE AIRBAG. MEANWHILE, HONDA AND TOYOTA HAVE HELPED THEIR CUSTOMERS. HOW CAN THEY GET BY WITH THIS? I THINK THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO MAKE THE RECALLS BEFORE SELLING NEW CARS.
