Failure Date: 06/01/2016

Takata inflators. . . Received recall notice, but Lincoln dealers simply state they don't have replacement parts yet. Recall came from postal service while car in garage.

2 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2016

I received a takata recall dated June 1, 2016 regarding a problem with airbags. I have not had a personal injury because of the airbag defect. However, I fear that the airbag inflator could rupture creating a risk of injury. I have been in contact with my Lincoln car dealer periodically and takata has never sent replacement parts to the car dealer and therefore the problem was never fixed. Since takata has now gone under chapter 11 bankruptcy I fear that the airbag parts will never be replaced.

3 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 12/10/2014

Takata inflators: we haven't had a problem yet but the last few years the front driver's and passenger's airbags have rattling noises when on bumpy roads. Hearing the rattling noises makes me believe there are parts loose in both which could put the driver and passenger in danger. I have been patiently waiting for a recall. If I choose to have them replaced on my own, will I be reimbursed? it is very scary hearing what happens to these airbags and I think hearing the rattling makes our car one of the ones a danger and should be on recall please. I did report it to Ford dealer but they did not record my concern, we were all thinking we'd be on recall list. Please, please consider my vehicle for recall.
