Takata recall; I took my 06 Ford Ranger to jim burke to have my recall fixed on may 31 2016 they kept it all day. I picked it up at end of day ,my air bag light was still on I asked the service adviser about it , they said I would have to bring it back another day and I would be charged to check it out. Today is 7/21/16 my air bag light still comes on . I don't think jim burke Ford ever replaced my defective part.
