Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problems of the 2008 Ford Edge

Takata airbag inflator! received a long overdue letter from the Ford motor company to take my vehicle in to a Ford dealer and have the inflator fixed and made an appointment and took it in! was told it would take about 2 hours! a few hours later my vehicle hadn"t been moved and they said they had more important jobs to do and were not sure if they would get to it! I had my son take it in and he was very upset and left! they have been very rude at this dealership before! so it seems that since this was a freebie it wasn't important to them to fix this problem!.

Takata inflators I have been attempting to have this issue resolved for many months, even having appointments with my service department canceled. The reason for this I'm told is that the parts are not available. I am extremely concerned due to the fact that your website and Ford website has sent letters stating that the recall was urgent and should be addressed immediately.

Takata recall. I received notification in the mail from tk holdings regarding an important legal notice for owners of vehicles with takata airbag inflators. I contacted westway Ford in irving texas as my Ford Edge came up as one of the vehicles in the recall of the air bags. Their service department told me the parts for the recall are not available and that I would receive a letter from Ford when the parts would be available. How do I get this issue rectified ASAP? my daughter drives the vehicle.

I then proceeded to contact jim hudson Ford dealership,1201 west main street, lexington, SC at (803) 359-4114 on 10/24/17 at 3:00pm attempting to make an appointment for my vehicle airbags to be replaced at no cost. I was told that the dealership had not received and will not receive replacement airbags, and that they had no further information. I called 1800-327-4236 and could not get a live agent on the phone and the system hung up on me. What do we do to resolve this issue as this is highly dangerous?.

Takara recall for the psan inflator.

I received a recall notice for my VIN# in March 2017; 17s01/NHTSA recall 17v-024; there was a serious defect with my takata passenger-side airbag system (by takata inflators). The notice states: inflator may rupture in the event of crash necessitating airbag deployment resulting in metal fragments (shrapnel from the dash) striking occupants cuasing serious injury or death. I have grandchildren who ride in my car! my car is absolutely off limits-a death trap, unsafe to drive! I contacted at 13 Ford dealers, each told me there aren't any forthcoming parts, unavailable due to takata's bankruptcy. Ford has repaired some vehicles but not mine and is responsible to take alternate measures to assure me of a safe vehicle! I've spent $32,000 on that "pre-owned" vehicle from a Ford dealership, and another $5,200 in repairs since purchasing and only drove it for 35,000 miles. I regularly maintained & serviced this vehicle. The defects were never detected.

Takata recall I still have not been able to get the inflators replaced. I was first notified March 2017. I have called bowen scarff (kent, wa) twice without any remedy - telling me that parts are not available. I have called on November 14, 2017 and again on November 6, 2018. I have been driving this vehicle for nearly 2 years with a faulty airbag - that can injure me or my family. What does it take to have this resolved? why am I not offered a rental car in the interim???? this is my vehicle that I drive.

Gary smith Ford, ft. Walton beach, FL I got a recall on my Ford Edge, took my car in and asked for an apt several months ago. Stated they could not make an apt. I received a takata airbag inflators notices class action 17-11375 (bls), the airbags have never been fixed, worried if I am ever in an accident what might happen. I called them 1-888-470-3583, also 1-888-814-0714. The air bags need to be fixed because of recall, so far not done. Can't find doc for recall but I took it in months ago, no call from them or apt set up.

Takata inflators I have receved 2 recalls on this I schedule appointment to get it fixed then I get a letter saying parts are not yet available to fix this problem. What should I do !.

Takata recall notice was sent to me on July 2016 by the Ford motor company. This "important safety recall" states that my inflator is likely defective and needs to be replaced. It has now been well over 1yr and Ford has still not contacted me again to initiate repair. My local dealer states they will send out notice once a "solution" is found. I am uncertain what solution is needed besides a new inflator. It feels as if I am driving around a potentially dangerous vehicle due to inaction.

Takata inflators this is my second complaint. The first one, made in December 2017, does not show up under the complaints section, which makes it seem like perhaps all of the complaints are not recorded appropriately by the NHTSA! the first notification of the airbag recall was received in July 2016. Each time I have called the dealership since then, I have been told replacement airbags are still unavailable for my 2008 Ford Edge. I see on this site that some owners have received a letter telling them not to use the front passenger seat. That would be completely unacceptable, as the reason we purchased the Ford Edge was so that we would have enough seats to safely transport our family members. There is no way to disable the airbags, according to the vehicle's manual, and I am terrified the airbag will cause death or serious injuries to me, my spouse, one of my children or grandchildren. It is taking a toll on my physical and mental well-being whenever I have to drive my car. I cannot sell my car thru carmax or one of the other sites, because they do not accept vehicles with unaddressed recalls. And it would be morally and ethically wrong to sell a dangerously defective vehicle to another individual without disclosing the airbag defect. And who would want to buy a defective vehicle! so I cannot even purchase a new safe vehicle in which to transport my loved ones!! this airbag recall situation has already taken an unreasonable amount of time to resolve; with no anticipated resolution in the future! does anyone at the NHTSA have any idea when this situation might be resolved? thank you.

Takata recall***" received notice in July 2016 that my vehicle has been identified in the takata recall, for a defective front passenger air bag inflator. At first the notice, and then several subsequent calls to Ford motor company headquarters, all stated it was safe to carry a front pasdenger. As others months and months passed without any notice. I made several calls to my local Ford dealer over the 18 month period, requesting an appointment for replacement. They actually treated me as if I was stupid for calling without having an official notice to replace the part. Finally I received another notice saying parts will be available in the spring, but also staying "do not drive with a passenger in the front seat. " fortunately and unfortunately, we have not used the vehicle with a front passenger. So, for the past 21 months I have had only a 1 passenger vehicle, which us in excellent condition and has only 88,000 miles on it. This has been an unbelievable, ridiculous situation for all.

Ford recall letter 7/16 re; passenger side air bag inflator. Call to dealership 10/16. Still not available. Ford recall letter 12/17 same issue. Stated still not available. Letter requested passenger seat be unoccupied till parts become available. This recall is now 21 months old and I'm not supposed to carry a passenger in the front seat 'till parts are available!!!!! inexcusable lawyer speak to cover Ford for any damages brought on by faulty air bag inflator.

Takata recall received letter July 2016 stating "on your vehicle the frontal airbag may rupture in the event of a crash necessitating airbag deployment. A reptured inflator may result in metal fragments striking vehicle occupants causing serious injury or death. " I have called the dealership where I bought my car and where I get my car serviced once a month since July of 2016 and spoken with mike romano when he will take my call. Richmond Ford Lincoln. 4600 west broad street. I have been mislead, lied to, calls not returned as promised. For fifteen months I have an expensive vehicle in which the passesnger side cannot be used. To do so would be like playing russian roulette with someone's life. I need as I have for the last 15 months for my car to be repaired and someone to take this very scary recall seriously.

I received a recall notice for the passenger side air bag inflator of this vehicle in July 2016. In December 2017 I received another letter stating that parts were still not available and would not be available until at soonest the spring of 2018. Ford recommended not letting anyone sit in the front passenger seat until repairs were made. Are they @#$%& kidding? this is an entirely unacceptable response and a ridiculous suggestion. A response timeline of two years for a potentially deadly situation and a suggestion that makes the car almost unusable is not acceptable. I wish to file the most strenuous complaint possible.

I was notified by Ford in July of 2016 that there is an existing recall of the defective passenger frontal airbag inflator in my vehicle. I immediately notified my local Ford dealership, peacock Ford (formerly known as don reid Ford), where the car was purchased to schedule the repair and was informed that the parts were not available. Since that time, I have made repeated phone calls to the same Ford dealership to remedy the life-threatening situation that I have been faced with on a daily basis as I drive my vehicle.

The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Takata inflators - the parts to repair the issue are delayed until spring 2018. I was told on the recall notice not to have people sit in the front passenger seat and this is starting to negatively impact my professional and personal life. I feel that I've been waiting an unreasonable amount of time to get this issue fixed. Thank you.

Takata recall. We have been waiting since June 16, nearly 1. 5 years, for the "free replacement;" but parts have not been available. . Dealership says they are not getting them from Ford. This is completely unacceptable. . Anyone sitting in the front passenger seat of my vehicle is at risk of severe injury or death if the inflator device fails! please take action to get this recall underway immediately.

Takata recall NHTSA recall number: 16v384 this recall was issued in June of 2016. The recall states, "the passenger frontal airbag inflator could rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash. . . " it is now February 2018, nearly 2 years later and Ford states that parts are still not available. Ford has advised me to "not allow anyone to sit in the passenger seat. " it is completely unreasonable for me to not allow anyone to sit in my front passenger seat for nearly 2 years and still not have the parts to complete this recall. This is a serious safety issue and it is not being handled in a "timely manner" as required by the NHTSA.

Takata inflators ** - 2 years and no replacement air bags for my vehicle. It has been recommended to not have anyone sit in the passenger seat. This now makes my vehicle a 4 passenger car (if you swish 3 people in the back seat). New airbags were to be available in spring 2018. Now I receive another notice that the air bag replacement will probably be another 3 to 6 months. I am extremely upset with how this situation has been handled and looks like it is now time to get legal assistance. I have been more than patient.

Takata inflators. Why does this problem continue to exist? Ford has went so far as to tell my family not to ride in the front seat of this car. This problem has went on for over two years and I must use this car for our family car. We travel extensively and need to use this car. I have a 2005 Dodge pick-up that had the same problem and the problem was corrected in a timely fascion. I find it hard to believe the nhsta would allow Ford to get away with this problem for so long seeing as to the seriousness of this problem. Please reassure me and my family that we will be safe in this car while waiting for repairs. Latest recall notice I received from Ford stated the air bags may be here by the second or third quarted of this year, however this is not the firest time we have been told they were coming. I feel Ford is stalling all the owners of their product. Would u please research this situation and advise us.
