Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator Problems of Ford Mustang - part 2

Takata recall (17s01/NHTSA recall 17v-024) received in March 2017 states that a ruptured inflator may cause serious injury or death. For this reason I have not driven this vehicle while waiting for the airbags to be repaired. My Ford dealer continues to report that there are no parts available to fix this issue, so I am unable to drive it for fear of injury or death. It has been months of waiting for parts and it is unacceptable that this issue can not be repaired yet.

I was told I would receive further instructions once the parts were received. I have yet to receive any more instructions. I am about to take a cross country trip with this vehicle and would greatly appreciate having this matter resolved prior to starting this trip, and endangering my passenger.

The manufacturer was contacted to determine when the remedy and part may be supplied to the dealer. VIN tool confirms parts not available. Dyd.

Takata reall I purchased this car as a used vehicle in Dec. 2014. Shortly after this I found that the vehicle had been recalled. I received the notice in may 2015. The car has not been repaired yet because the part is not available. About a week ago I received a notice from Ford to schedule the repair. I made an appointment for today and took the vehicle in. I was told that the part is not available. I called Ford and was told that the notice was sent by mistake, and that my car will have to wait for the repair. This is very frustrating and I think Ford needs to compensate the owners for the diminished value of the car during the time that it has this dangerous airbag still in the car for almost two years. Volkswagen had to buy back cars that just polluted the air a little. Ford can get away with cars that can kill the owners and have done just that. I am including a scan of the notice that Ford sent me. Cannot sell the car at least not for very much and really should not drive it. At least Honda motor corporation offers loaner cars for their takata airbag problem cars. Ford has absolutely refused to offer loaners for their dangerous vehicles. I am just lucky so far that I have not been in accident that will deploy the dangerous supplemental restraint system using the takata airbag with defective inflator. I also worry that the other airbags in this car will have the same problem.

Takata recall-passenger side airbag inflator->Ford is incompletely not replacing these in a timely fashion.

Some type of penalty should be meted out!! please help!!!.

Takata recall - Ford changed the status of my driver side airbag inflator recall from "remedy not available" to "recall incomplete", implying that parts are now available and it is now my responsibility to have it replaced. But no dealership in my area has any such parts, and cannot even estimate when they may be able to order parts to comply with this recall. I have checked with two Ford dealers in my area (portland oregon) and they cannot help me resolve this. Ford is wrongfully changing the status of this recall for unknown reason(s).

Takata inflators. Due to the outstanding recall of the passenger side air bag on my Mustang, my Ford dealer informed me that they would not take in as a trade or would have to offer me less then the car would be worth as a trade in because they would not resell the car and would take it straight to auction. Since Ford was originally responsible as they are the manufacturer that installed this air bag when the car was manufactured, and this is the reason that the vehicle has this issue, they should be stepping up and compensating either the owner or any dealer that would take this car in on trade for any loss in value so that the present owner is not tied to a vehicle because of the lost value due to this recall issue.

Driver airbag recalls as inflator rupture could result in metal fragments striking and seriously injuring me or passengers. Ford dealerships have been saying for a year they haven't received replacement airbags yet. They also will not offer other forms of compensation (e. G. Replacing car or taking airbag out).

Takata recall - part replacement for this used car is still outstanding. (is Ford creating the replacement inflator as has been informally reported?) VIN number was not found in NHTSA listing, which concerns me greatly, so will I still be informed when replacement part(s) available since this has now been reported?! the car is a convertible(cv) if that makes any difference. Would like to have part replaced immediately as three people, including two children, are transported in car every day, and the inflator issue is very concerning. The delay in replacement is unacceptable in my view. Parts should be replaced ASAP!! please treat replacement with real urgency and let the author have frequent updates via mail or e-mail.

Takata recall was received 5 months ago for the front driver side airbag inflator housing. I have been calling various dealers in my area for over 5 months and not one dealer has the parts to replace the housing. How long do I have to wait to get this resolved????.

The recall says: safety risk: an inflator rupture could result in metal fragments striking and potentially seriously injuring vehicle occupants. Remedy: dealers will replace the driver airbag inflator with a new one, free of charge. Recall status: recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available dealership told me that I can easly go to a Ford service and replace the airbag for my safety, they accepted that they did not try to complete the recall before putting the car on the market. After I bought the car, I called a Ford service, and they told me that the remedy is not ready, the replacement parts are not provided by Ford yet. Did I buy an unsafe car? is it dealership's or Ford's fault? I want to replace the dangerous parts as soon as possible.

"takata recall" - I received my letter on July 2016 stating I needed to replace the passenger frontal airbag inflator. Since this date I have made 5 attempts to have someone give me a schedule as to when this issue will be resolved. One year later I am still getting the run around from Ford. On July 17, 2017 I contacted the Ford michigan headquarters and they told me to call customer relations at 800-392-3673. The conversation began with the same excuse that they were working on the problem and I would receive a letter when the air bag could be replaced. It was at that time I stated I wanted them to open a case file for me. The number I received for the open case is cas12729115.

Takata recall: received a recall letter from Ford motor company July 2015 and another July 2016. Contacted local Ford dealer concerning recall 2 months ago to have airbag inflator replaced.

I have not yet been contacted for the replacement inflator and I have visited my local dealership on two occasions to status the recall. I was interested in having the passenger side inflator deactivated until the repair was accomplished but the dealership representative stated they were not authorized to deactivate. Therefore, I need your authorization to allow Ford to deactivate the passenger side inflator immediately and until the recall has been satisfied.

Takata inflators the existing recall on the passenger airbag of July 2016 indicates that it is not safe for a person to ride in the front passenger seat. I just received a notice that it is hoped that there will be a fix for this defect in 2018. Because the back seats of this model of Mustang have limited space for legs, my vehicle is now limited to accommodating the driver only. This car was not purchased as a commuter vehicle and it appears that I will be looking at about two years where I can't use it. This seems like and extremely long fine to address this problem. Is there any other options for getting this fixed or replaced?.

Takata recall: org. Complaint #11035736 original letter regarding recall, dated 2016. Call autoway Ford 07/29/16 and was told no parts, called again numerous times after that, I know for sure I called on 10/23/17 and again 02/15/18. Parts manager called me on 02/15/18 due to my concern with the inflator not being replaced. He stated that they were getting some in but they are for only 2011, 2012, 2013 vehicles since they are newer and more of these years on the road. I have not been able to have a passenger in my car for a long time due to the liability. I don't feel I should be punished because my vehicle is a 2006, with only 54. 000 miles on it. I am very upset at this time. Ford is no way helping me. I noticed when I got to the site it said to contact dealer and ask for a free loaner, will all dealerships do this?? if I leave car at dealership, I am afraid someone will use it because the day I bought it, I had to pick it up the next day and the manager took his wife to dinner in it. I did not approve of this at all. Please advise as to the status of the inflator for my passenger air bag. Thank you.

Takata recall - received recall for passenger frontal airbag inflator recall in July 2016. (note: driver side has been repaired). Have called Ford for repair and as of today they still cannot give a date when repairs can be completed. I have no other choice but to minimize any driving on this unsafe vehicle. Yesterday, I received a legal notice from tk holdings inc. Concerning the airbag inflators informing me that takata corporation has filed for bankruptcy. It is obvious that takata has no plans to make repairs so I request that dot force automakers to standby their products and expedite the repairs or remunerate owners for the retail price of the vehicle. .

Takata inflators - reference complaint no. 11006081 and no. 11006075 airbag r07eplacement - 2007 Mustang and 2008 fusion: I found the following information on a Honda website - "the �alpha� driver-front airbag inflators were the subject of the first takata airbag inflator recalls starting in 2008. In most cases, the previous owners of these affected vehicles did not replace the inflators under those recalls and, thus, the vehicles remain unrepaired. Now, because of the time that has passed, they are even more likely to rupture if the driver's airbag deploys in a crash. In fact, in testing done by takata, alpha inflators removed from vehicles in consistently hot and humid areas showed a rupture rate as high as 50 percent. " can I expect the same, higher percentage of kill rate, in the inflators in my 2007 Mustang and 2008 fusion as they age, as found by Honda? I will pay to have the airbags/inflators replaced - request your office provide the correct part numbers and recommended place to have the work correctly accomplished. I did not receive a response from your office to either referenced complain, any information your office can provide is appreciated. V/r, tom.
