I inform Lincoln motor company on my Lincoln has been recalled, which is happening right now to a record number of americans, but it's even worse when you know that your car has been recalled and can't get the manufacturer to service it at a dealership. When you're told that there are no parts or no technicians to fix your car, what do you do? I was told it's not that bad and didn't need to be replacing right now. Had my car in to be service on recall 18s08, that is when the dealership didn't put the lug nuts back on my car, and the wheel fell off the car causing damage to the front end of the car. The lugs nuts swell, crack and delaminate to the point special tools are needed to remove the lug nuts. Had 3 blowout due to the wheel frame was bent, and was replace during the damage the dealership done to the car. Picture was provided to Lincoln motor company. I was notified by Lincoln about NHTSA 14v-597, and of the date still not repaired.

Takata recall> notice 16s26 / NHTSA recall 16v-384< I was notified by mail of a recall over 5 years ago on the inflator of my passenger airbag but Ford had not yet arrived at a decision on how to fix the problem. Notification would be sent when they had a resolution. I began to regularly follow up with dealerships inquiring about the availability of replacement parts for my cars recall, but was repeatedly told they were still waiting for any parts to be provided to them. Recently, July 2018, I received a notice from Ford stating that "a repair is available for your vehicle" in big red letters. It goes on stating "parts are now available for your vehicle". Details of recall and instructions for me to schedule my car for service led me to call my local dealer to schedule a free repair. Unfortunately, the service dept informed me they still do not have the replacement airbag modules (as of October 2018) so once again, I am left waiting for a resolution after 5 or more years of waiting. Ford was given more than adequate time to resolve the issue. If the problem was serious enough to prompt a full product recall, and force Ford to pay $299. 1 million settlement in a class action lawsuit, then it is serious enough that Ford shouldn't still have all of the unsafe vehicles waiting for parts. Furthermore, for Ford to prematurely notify owners that parts are ready for installation in their local dealership serves to prove they don't take the matter seriously (since the vehicles are 10 years old now) and respect for the safety of their customers is not a priority. Please investigate this issue and hold Ford accountable by taking action, a deadline should be designated within which Ford must furnish parts and begin servicing afflicted vehicles. I believe corporations should be held to a higher legal standard because of their likeliness to cause negligent injury on a massive scale.

Takata recall we purchased a 2010 Lincoln Mkz from a Lincoln dealership now owned by "Ford galaxy" in houston, TX and have owned the vehicle for 8 years. In July 2016 we received "safety recall notice 16s26" indicating passenger airbag inflator should be replaced and that if a crash necessitating airbag deployment may result in metal fragments striking vehicle occupants causing serious injury or death. Since July 2016 we have on numerous occasions requested the airbag inflator be replaced. The Lincoln motor company's response has been "we do not have the replacement parts. " in December 2017 we received a second recall notice that stated we should "not allow anyone to sit in the first row passenger seat". For 8 years we have been driving a ticking time bomb. It feels like a page out of the old Ford pinto playbook. The Lincoln service manager at galaxy Ford told us this morning that they still do not have replacement inflators. From an owner's perspective, it is unimaginable that lmc cannot find replacements for the defective parts in less than 2 years! is there anything you can do to help resolve this problem?.

Since receiving the letter, I have not allowed anyone to sit in the front seat passenger seat. . . . . And will not until this matter is fixed.

Takata inflators: I purchased my Lincoln Mkz to have a safe family vehicle to transport my 4 month son to and from the hospital over 200 miles away every day! July 2016 I received notice that there were safety concerns with my vehicle and I would be contacted when parts arrived. Then in December 2017 I received another notice saying the same information but also included there are to be no passengers in this vehicle. This vehicle was no longer serving a purpose for my family to get to the hospital with my son. I received another notice in June 2018 that my vehicle was no longer to be driven and I just received my rental car on July 10, 2018. . . There is still no parts currently being distributed in order to repair my car. My vehicle has sat, I have had to pay a mechanic to come flush it and put in new batteries etc to maintain it after not being driven. I am very grateful to receive this rental car now however, it hardly seems to make it better after paying on a car for two years that was not deemed safe and fully functional. I know that this situation has caused many distraught customers, however for me and my son who was fighting for his life, this situation has truly been a hardship. My son's needs unfortunately, put me in a place where I can't just "upgrade". The vehicle was purchased November 2015 with 21,300 miles and today it still has less then 39,000 miles due to it being unfit. A most devastating challenge to my family. I have all supporting documents should anyone wish to see them, I am happy to provide it. At this point it will be hard turning back over the rental car as I finally have the means to care for my son, going back to the sitting Lincoln will just bring more problems. I hope someone can understand how emotionally damaging it has been for a family to wait two + years to drive in their vehicle during the most difficult times in their life.

Takata recall. In the month of July 2016 I received a letter from the Lincoln motor company, dated July 2016 stating "when parts become available for safety recall 16s26, the Lincoln motor company will notify you via mail to schedule a service appointment with your dealer to have the passenger frontal airbag inflator replaced. " two phone calls to dealer on 8/8/16 regarding this matter have not been returned as of 11/9/16. Four months seems to be a long time to get this issued corrected as it puts members of my family in harms way anytime I drive the car with a passenger in the front seat. How long is this expected to take for parts to be available and then how long will it take for the dealer to handle the replacement? four months of a known safety hazard not being fixed is too long in my opinion.
