37 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 11/04/2019

I dont own this car but I was seriously thinking about accouring this car till when I looked up the VIN and it had an old open recall on the airbags that the car company selling it should atleast tell you there is. I realize facebook may not be the best online service to use to buy a vehicle but the dealership should have at the least mentioned the recall and what thwy should uave already done was have it talen in an fixed for the safety of its client its crazy. Please get ahold of the dealship who owns this car and tell them to get the recall taken care off thank you. There are cars that have this recalls that should be talen care of as soon as the obtained them. I've noticed that facebooka car marketplace has alot of cars for sale with open recalls some a couple months old and some over 10 years old please look into this dealership on facebook trying to sell cars with recalls on them an young kid or older lady may not even think about looking up the vins to see if there is an open recall buy the car and then possible die or get severly hurt because these dealerships didn't take car of all recalls that open on car on there lot. I would never ever sell someone a car with an open recall even if it was very minor, so how can these dealerships go unchecled selling open recall cars, heres ita VIN 3fahp0ja8ar379262 please for god sake make it to where nobody can sell a car on any website without gettimg iy fixed or explaining there is one and offer to get it fixed before they buy or if they buy get it towed to get thw recall fixed.

38 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/27/2019

I've contacted empire Ford of abingdon virginia twice by phone: once on August 27th and again on August 28th 2019, and went in person to the dealership on the 25th of September 2019 and physical handed them my vehicle registration to get this recall taken care of. As of yet, July 2020, I have had no help getting my recall fix, and yet, Ford continues to flood my mail box with �urgent recall� mail. Either this is not an urgent recall or Ford motor company does not care about my safety; or maybe the dealership in general does not care about my safety. Please advise, or at least get Ford motor company to stop the harassing recall mail. Thanks.

40 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 08/10/2019

When I started up the car & was going to pull out the light for passenger air bag came on, then I turn my wheel & there is like a grinding sound. I pulled on side of road & had someone come check it. They said same thing I did. I thought it was something rubbing against the tire, but when we looked there was nothing. Then he kept turning the wheel & it sounded more in the steering column. My husband checked underneath the car when I got home & thank goodness he did because the tie rod ends inside & out were so bad that I was lucky to have not of crashed. Still the steering is making that loud grinding, screeching sound. Air bag & trac lights come on occasionally still also. Really feel unsafe driving my car here the last few months. Ive had it parked for the last month & bought just something to get around for now til I can afford to have it fixed or they have a recall on these. Ive seen so many other people with same problems & I also seen they recalled the 2011 for same issues. Why not the 2010?????.

I was driving this car on a city street when the �service power steering now� light came on. I couldn't turn the wheel so I took it to precision tune and they reset it but told me that they see this make/model of car with the same power steering issue a lot and that if it happened again that I would have to take it to the dealership. That was Monday it is now Thursday and the same �service power steering� light came on again! I'm told that the entire power steering system has to be replaced for 1800+.

Our local Ford dealership, in grand junction CO, is will not make us an appointment to repair airbag recall, they keep putting us off and making excuses! we received the letter in March on recall (although letter is dated February 2019, we received it in March). We called March 15 to set up an appointment to have it repaired- and have been getting denied ever since. They said that Ford is only sending them 3 kits per week to fix recalls. We continue to ask to be put on the list - they say they are backed up and will call when they have one for us. We are still waiting and it will be may tomorrow! the parts woman-our contact for all of this, is extremely rude and refuses to give any more information! we have been calling since March to check on the status and get car repaired - and she continues to be so annoyed by our request and is very unprofessional! it has been so frustrating, we literally don't know what else we can do! Ford gives us a notice, that our car is dangerous. They are the ones that tell us to take it to their dealership to have it repaired! so we immediately stop driving it. It has been very inconvenient, without a car and sharing rides! we even conveyed this fact to this Ford representative- and she made it known that she could care less! we finally had to start driving car last week- we are desperate! please help us!.

Tacata recall. Today I called the anacortes Ford dealership in wa state and spoke with josh in the service department. I told him I had a letter from Ford about a recall. He said that Ford is out of the parts and they aren't able to order any. I asked how long till they can order more and he said maybe a month. So I asked what my options were, if I needed to call back every month. He said the best he could do was add me to his list and keep an eye on it. I explained that my husband had called a few months back and spoke with someone who said they were ordering the part and would be calling him back in a few weeks. He said there was nothing on record of that. I am extremely unsatisfied with the handling of the situation. It's been over a year since I first started getting letters about this recall. The most recent letter I received from Ford motor company dated February 2019, states that, �parts are available to repair your vehicle however, your dealer will need to order parts for your vehicle prior to your appointment. � this is not congruent with what josh said. He said they are not able to order any more at this time.

Takata recall -- it's been over a year since I received the recall notice from Ford and this issue still has not been fixed. Seems like an excessive amount of time to wait for a fix when it's possible the airbag could explode upon accident.

Well for one Ford was supppse to have done transmission work on my car two years ago n now my car is doing the same thing. For example it started with when 8n park it rocks back and foward more the a inch in either direction. I seen where there was a recall on the transmission for that very problem but it was never fixed on my car. Second thing is there were a recall on my airbags , Ford had my car for 2 weeks n said they fix the airbag problem but that was a lie. I have plenty of recordings of the passenger airbags off light still coming on. So if u would be so kind and get these problems n recalls taking care of it would be great thanks. .

I am having problems with several things. Air bag was recalled so I took it to the Ford dealership and they replaced it but the light won't go off, after getting my car back from the dealership the radio/speaker and seat warmers went out, soon after the heat/ac went out, the rear driver side tail light goes out very often, plate lights don't work, visor lights don't work. They're are too many issues that started at the same time, so I think it must be electrical. Thanks.

"takata recall" I called woody anderson Ford in huntsville, al and did not get a call back for inspection and service for my 2010 Ford Fusion. It took me two more calls to get somebody on the line. I finally did, his name is paul, who told me that my front passenger airbag was in recall. He told me that I could still drive my car as long as I did not have anyone in the front seat. I have older children who ride in that seat, 15 years and above. I asked him if the airbag would deploy and he said not to risk it. I asked if I could get a rental car and he said since it was a passenger airbag that I could not because the car was still driveable without any passengers. What???.
