11 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/30/2017

"takata recall" - when does it become a "if the manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for your vehicle in a timely manner" issue? I have a car that has a safe driver's side airbag, but a dangerous passenger side air bag. Aren't my passengers worthy to be safe also? why is it taking soooo long to ensure the passenger air bag won't injure or kill my passengers? NHTSA database on my VIN states the recall is there. . . But can't be fixed???? why ??? they were able to fix the driver's side.

12 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 01/19/2017

Takata recall dear sirs, the takata airbag recall has been in effect for our 2007 Ford Mustang for nearly 8 full months. The driver side airbag was replaced in a timely manner but not the the passenger airbag. Every time I receive one of these NHTSA recall notices like the one I received today, I repeat the VIN number check, it is verified, I call the Ford deal, brondes Ford, maumee, ohio, where the car was purchased, and we are always told no parts are available and that it's "no problem to just keep using the vehicle. We will call or email you when parts are available. " if it's no problem to keep using the vehicle and there are no restrictions on a front seat passenger being in the car, regardless of age, weight or seating position, then why is this NHTSA recall being repeatedly issued and why is Ford ignoring the recall?.

"takata recall" . I was notified over a year ago from today , October 19 2017 , about the recalls for the driver side and the passenger side airbags . I have had the drivers side replaced at my local Ford dealership , but they keep telling me there is no replacement/fix for the passenger side yet . It's been well over a year and I use this vehicle regularly with my 11 year old son in the passenger seat . I have anxiety every time I drive the vehicle and would like to let whoever needs to know that this is very unacceptable and it needs to be resolved now. Over a year for our safety is ridiculous .

20 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2016

Takata recall, Jun 01,2016, manufacturer recall number16s26, NHTSA recall number16v384. Passenger side air bag recall dated 6-1-17. In December 2017 I am notified not to let anyone sit in the passenger seat. This effectively makes my car a one person car because no human adult can fit in the rear seat. I have asked my dealer for a loaner until the airbag is replaced and was denied. It is now 20 months since the original recall. Certainly Ford is selling new cars with airbags. Why has it taken so long to replace my airbag? please force Ford to provide loaner cars in order to make them get serious about the recall. They sourced the inadequate takata airbags. This is a Ford problem, them should have acted in a timely manner.
