6 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem of the 2006 Lincoln Zephyr

Failure Date: 07/01/2016

Takata recall: I was informed about the takata recall in July 2016, one year ago. A copy of the recall notice is attached. Lincoln claims they do not have the parts to repair the passenger frontal air bag. They do not know when they will get the parts. Since the airbag inflator my rupture in a crash, I have a risk of a serious accident. A Lincoln customer support agent told me that my vehicle has a low risk of the inflator rupturing since the risk depends on the age of the vehicle. My Zephyr is almost 12 years old. Shouldn't Lincoln be repairing 2006 Zephyrs? what is the risk of a dangerous rupture?.

8 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem of the 2006 Lincoln Zephyr

Failure Date: 06/01/2016

Takata recall - in June 2016, I received a notice in the mail about the following issue with my 2006 Lincoln Zephyr: the passenger frontal airbag inflator could rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the supplemental frontal airbags are designed to deploy. This defect report is in response to takata dirs 16e-042, 16e-043, 16e-044. I then received another notice in December 2017 saying that the remedy parts have been delayed but may be available in spring 2018, for certain vehicles. The notice also warns owners that allowing anyone to sit in the first row passenger seat could cause the air bag inflator to rupture during a crash and could also cause injuries or death. I'm filing a complaint because not being able to have anyone sit in the front row passenger seat has been an inconvenience and this issue hasn't not been resolved within a timely manner.
