Failure Date: 11/16/2016

"takata recall" this "joke" has gone on far too long. Until parts actually become available, how about having the dealer simply remove the defective inflator and let us rely on the 3-point seat belt???!!! it would be tons better than having to suffer with only 3/4 of a car and having to put my mobility challenged wife in the back seat. This is just plane wrong and stupid!!!!.

4 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 07/15/2016

Takata recall - I received my first letter about this dated July 2016 which stated the passenger frontal airbag inflator may rupture in the event of a crash necessitating airbag deployment. I have received a second letter dated December 2017 which states "do not let anyone sit in the first row passenger seat". This letter was received just after I returned home from a long trip with a front seat passenger. Why was I not warned not to have front seat passengers for 18 months? I have contacted my dealership repeatedly who say parts are unavailable and I have called the Ford customer relationship center who told me parts may be available in the spring of 2018 but would not commit to a definite month. I believe I am in zone a which is a higher priority area - California. Why is this taking so long? not to allow a front seat passenger is very inconvenient.
