The drivers side air bag inflater needs to be replaced due to a recall.
Takata recall. I have had no communication from the Ford motor company regarding when parts will be available for replacing the passenger side airbag. My car has been sitting in my garage for a month and a half now. My local dealership has no clue as to when parts will be available. This is a totally unacceptable situation as I cannot drive, sell or trade my car in this situation. I would like to know what is being done to make these parts available and when. I would appreciate help and a response in this matter.
Takta recall not being addressed. My passenger side airbag seam split with a audible pop when traveling from arizona to wyoming in extreme temperatures.
"takata recall" I received a letter from Ford in March of 2017 advising of a recall because of defect in passenger side airbag. I was told that I would be contacted when the parts to fix the issue was available. I have periodically been checking with my dealership, rountree in shreveport, with the orr Ford dealership in stonewall and other Ford dealerships in the area for the last 6 months, only to be told the part has not come in yet. In March I was told it was expected in April. Today I was told it was expected in a few weeks. I am starting to think the problem will never be resolved.
Vehicle was hit twice on right (passenger) side. Impact was hard and continuous and pushed the car against barrier wall on left side. The car was totaled. Front passenger side door was severely dented. None of the air bags deployed although vehicle was supposed to be equipped with side air bags.
Takata recall I was told early this year that my vehicle has unsafe passenger-side air bags. This means my car's passenger safety is compromised. Yet nothing has been done with my car to solve the problem by Ford, other than a promise that some day they will provide a free replacement. I purchased a brand new car in 2012 with safety air bag features. How long should I have to wait to get them?.
