"takata recall" while driving my 2008 Ford Ranger, my driver side air bag deployed. No known cause, no accident, just pulling out of a parking lot. I am unsure if I was completely stopped or just pulling out to turn right. City street. Chemical burns/contusions.
Takata recall ---I have had notification for over 1 year now (July 2016) and still (November 2017 ) no one can provide a replacement for my truck passenger side air bag. Need immediate action.
I went to the Ford dealership and they fixed the passenger airbag. But after repair the air bag rattles. The driver side airbag has never been replaced we r going on year 3. When I reach out to the dealership they keep telling me they do not have the parts. This has been going on for far too long.
Takata recall. I was notified that the passenger side airbag had been recalled in early 2017 and to date (12-23-17) the Ford dealerships have been unable to replace the potentially defective part because they do not have replacement parts and do not know when they will get them.
Takata recall. I first became aware of this recall when I purchased the vehicle in November 2016. I have submitted two letters to NHTSA to deactivate passenger-side airbag, since it is a single cab. I cannot transport anyone in the passenger seat because of this airbag, and there is no availability of replacement airbags. The letters I sent in Dec 16 and oct 17 have gone unanswered. I filled out an email to NHTSA last week and have just gotten off the phone to NHTSA. I need this airbag deactivated until replacement is available. I am in touch with local Ford dealer, "speedway Ford' in griffin, GA 30224, but they cannot resolve the matter either.
(takata recall) I got a recall letter from Ford motor company dated July 2016. The recall was for the passenger side air bag on my 2008 Ford Ranger. I took the truck into my dealer, metro Ford, independence, mo. , within a few days of receiving the recall letter. The service manager told me the parts would be available the 4th quarter of this year, sometime in oct. 2016. I called the dealer today, 10/7/16, to see if I could bring my truck in for the airbag repair, & the service manager now tells me the part may not be available until after the first of the year 2017. I am very concerned about the slowness of this repair as I must use my truck regularly to haul materials, & am very concerned about my passenger's safety. Is there a time frame within which the company is supposed to have this recall repair done? is this vehicle safe to use as I have no other means of hauling materials?.
Takata recall for my 2008 Ford Ranger passenger side airbag has a recall for over a year and a half now and still after contacting my Ford dealership they have not replaced it with reason given they have not received the parts to do so.
