Side/window Air Bag Problems of Ford Fusion - part 2

I received a letter stating that there was a recall on my car due to the passenger air bag but the parts to replace it are not in, I want to disable the air bag to avoid possible injury until it can be fixed but the dealership will not do this until the company will authorize it. The recall describes personal injury or possible death as a result of the defect. I do not want to drive my car and if I am injured or die as a result of this. . . . My family will sue the heck out of the company and the agency overseeing the industry. Just give dealerships the permission to deactivate the passenger side air bags so we don't have to ride around with miniature ieds in our dashboards or compensate us for rental cars.

Takada recall - this recall is for my daughter's passenger side air bag. We have been waiting since March of 2017 the date we received the recall notice from Ford, to get the airbag replaced. Everytime she drives that car or has a passenger in her car it is a safety hazzard knowing other drivers and passenger's have died while waiting for the part or parts to be replaced. I am appalled at the lack of urgency on the car manufacturer's and takeda to fix all the vehichles involved in the recall considering the price to pay is with someone's life.

I intend to copy this to my two senators and my house representative.

"takata recall". Safety recall notice 16s26 / NHTSA recall 16v-38. I received a recall notice about the takata recall from Ford motor CO. More than a year ago (July 2016).

"takata recall" : since I received notification of this recall in July 2016, I have called the dealership, called Ford, called NHTSA, and filled out a complaint form that was mailed to me by NHTSA. The dash in my car is bulging above the passenger side air bag. My mechanic is telling me the air bag is likely "twisted. " I believe this qualifies me for an immediate repair. From what I read on the recall site, Ford can do an "interim" repair on high risk vehicles defined older vehicles exposed to high humidity/high temp. I lived in santa fe nm from may - August 2016 - which is about the time I noticed the sudden bulge in the dash. I currently live in florida which is another high humidity/high temp climate. Ford should consider my vehicle as "high risk" and send me the paperwork I need to have it repaired immediately. At the very least, they should send me a voucher so I can take it to any Ford dealership to get it checked - free of charge. The sudden bulge in the dash above the airbag is clearly an indication something is wrong. Ford should be doing everything they can to get my car checked and repaired at no charge to me. At this point, no one from Ford has called or made any attempt to offer me a solution. I would like to know what recourse I have to get this taken care of.
