I received a letter in March of 2017 stating that there was an important safety recall regarding the passenger airbag in my car. The letter stated that a ruptured inflator may result in metal fragments striking vehicle occupants. I stopped having passengers sit in the front seat of my car, inconvenient but safe. This letter came two years ago!!! I made and documented three calls regarding this issue to no avail. Today I again called Lincoln cooperate and was transferred to taska Lincoln in cranston ri. I waited on the line for 17 minutes but had to hang up because my lunch ended. This is so ridiculous! two years!.
Takata recall. Received recall notice in 3/2017 for passenger frontal airbag inflator. Still can't get repaired. Dealer says they haven't received replacement parts. Waiting too long for recall repair. It appears that s. Florida should be a high priority for repair parts due to high heat and humidity.
I was notified in January of 2017 of a defective airbag. Specifically the passenger frontal airbag inflator could rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash were the supplemental frontal airbags are designed to deploy. I was told via mailing that once a remedy is set in place instructions on where it is now almost 11 months later and yet the manufactures are still saying no remedy is yet available.
