I call my local Ford dealerships to schedule a free important safety recall for the driver's side air bag inflator replacement, according to NHTSA is due for replacement, but workers at this location hang up the phone, tell me to wait 1 second and dissapear making me write this paragraphs because my safety is #1 priority. They want me to leave my vehicle in their properties for 3 days for a simple 2 hour job and that is really unacceptable, only because its free dont mean I have to put up with this nonsense. The vehicle runs and works fine but in aan event of a crash god forbiddes, I wouldnt want exploding airbag fragment to be the cause of my death and im urging to get this replaced ASAP but lazy worker who dont like their job should be fired to open up position for people who appreciate their jobs. Now I dont know how to take care of this situation im stuck knowing there is a potential for an airbag explosion deploying and risking my life at the hands of inconmpetent workers who dont realize how important recalls really are. I cant afford a new vehicle plus my vehicle turns on and the tires rotate without a hassle theres no point in buying more junk. Please get back at me thank you and god bless. I have records of a recall that was done on passenger side airbag but now NHTSA recommends the driver side I appreciate the advice but dealerships act really unprofessionally towards the situation.

Ford just notified me that there is a safety recall notice 21s12 / NHTSA recall 21v-158 for the driver's side airbag. The answer to "what is the risk?" "if an airbag inflator explodes, sharp metal fragments could strike the driver or other occupants causing serious injury or death. " and, yet, "Ford has not issued instructions to stop driving your vehicle. . . " however, they do not have replacement parts yet for this vehicle at the mechanic shop that I have used for many years! my complaint is that I am now afraid to drive this car, my main source of transportation as a retiree widow. In addition, I am at a loss as to why this airbag was not replaced when the passenger side airbag in these vehicles was replaced back in 2018. I am just lucky that the airbag was not deployed when I had a front end collision in late 2012. I am asking that these parts be made available ASAP because frankly, I am disappointed in Ford's response once again to this very serious situation. There is no longer any excuse for it.

Takata recall. My local dealer has not been authorized to replace the airbag. I am very concerned about the danger and I'm considering not driving this vehicle until the inflator is changed. The problem is that I do not have a choice to drive or not, unless Ford provides a loaner.

Takata inflators. I received a notice about this recall many months ago. I've called my local dealerships to check for a repair and they still (as of today 10/4/18) tell me that they do not have the parts available and are not able to fix. I cannot believe I've been required to drive around with this hazard for so long while Ford has not been able to come up with a solution. This is not acceptable.
Takada inflators. I received 2 letters stating air bag defects in passenger seat. Telling me to call make of car shops for repairs I called every place and no one has the part. This is extremely dangerous and noone has been able to help. When someone's dies or is servery hurt you will be held responsible.
Still waiting on replacement part for passenger side airbag inflator. Was told by dealership that repair would be in 2nd or 3rd quarter(2018). Now being told parts will not be available until November 2018. I do not have any faith that they will be available. I have been trying to have this repair since oct of 2017.

Takata inflators its been 2 years and know help from Ford. Just don't let anyone ride in front passenger seat is all I'm told. So, I'm driving half a car.
"takata recall" in July 2016, I received a recall notification from Ford advising that the air bag inflators were defective. I just received another letter from Ford dated December 2017 advising that it was unsafe for anyone to occupy the front passenger seat until the recall revision is complete. I find this to be totally unacceptable as this is our only family car. I suggest that the Ford motor company furnish replacement cars with working air bags to those of us affected, at their expense until the passenger air bag in my car is repaired. Since we are now being advised that a front passenger involved in a front end collision could be fatally injured, we have lost the safe use of our car. Please investigate this matter as soon as possible. Please see warning on December 2017 recall letter.
Takata inflators - we received a notice over a year ago that replacement would be in spring 2017. Waited and called several times - now a second letter it is spring 2018. The desired option is for passengers in front seat needing to sit in back seat - didn't spend all this money, wait this long only to wait so more - what are options to get this done sooner since we have already been waiting two years.

Takata inflators: there seems to have been enough time now to get the airbags replaced. This is my daughters car and I just think that if this were the daughter of a big wheel at takata, the air bag would have been replaced already. Enough time, get it done !!!!.

Takata recall. I have waited over a year now, and Ford still does not have the parts to replace my potentially lethal passenger side airbag inflator, nor do they (as of 7/6/2017) even have a projected date the part/s will be available. This is unconscionable.

Takata recall I was notified in the fall of 2016 that my vehicle has takata airbag inflators that have been recalled. I called my local Ford dealer ( klaben Ford in kent, ohio) to schedule a repair. I was told that parts are not available & I would be notified when parts are available. I called klaben Ford on 10/25/2017 and was told again parts are not available. Why after 1 year Ford can't find replacement parts? I believe Ford has no intention of replacing the inflators. What action can be taken to get Ford to honor the recall?.

Safety recall received July 2016 by mail from Ford motor company passenger frontal airbag inflator rupture in crash. As of today, no remedy nor parts, nor further notices received. Unreasonable amount of time has passed since safety recall.
I received the attached recall notice in July 2016 from Ford motor company concerning a defective airbag inflator. To date, I have not received any further notification from Ford motor company about the availability of the part and instructions on what to do in order to remedy this dangerous condition. I have contacted the Ford dealership, auto nation in marietta, georgia, a number of times to determine the status of this and have been told that the part is not yet available. Considering the dangerous condition that they describe in the recall notice, I certainly think that this has dragged on much too long, and I am extremely concerned about the danger of death or severe injury.
Takata recall - I received a recall notice from Ford motor company for the passenger frontal airbag inflator, dated July 2016. It has been over 1 year now and I have not received any follow-up information regarding replacement of this piece, and the NHTSA website states that there is still no remedy available. This flawed piece of equipment is potentially deadly, should it rupture, and it is unacceptable that it has been over 1 year and still "no remedy is available". Please let me know when I can expect a replacement piece for this to be available as soon as possible. Thank you.
Takata inflators- I have contacted advantage Ford on several occasions since receiving a recall notice in July 2016. Each time I have been told that replacement parts are not available. Last week I was told that I could call Ford headquarters or Mercury headquarters but they didn't it would help. This car is now more than 10 years old and is situated in florida with hot weather year round. I am scared each time I drive it that I or my passenger will be injured by this unsafe airbag situation. It seems that someone should be able to apply pressure on takata to provide replacement parts or at the very least have the car manufacturers produce the replacement parts and go after takata for expenses.
"takata recall" July 2016 Ford sent me a letter that the passenger airbag inflator is defective and they will be letting me know when to take it in to get it replaced. Received a letter today ( 1 and 1/2 years later) from Ford that they are still working on the problem and when and if they come up with a fix they will let me know when to get it fixed. They also stress that no one should ride in the front passenger seat as they can be injured or killed by the airbag if in an accident. The only thing they forgot to mention is the trade in value of the vehicle is none. It is an unsafe vehicle so the dealers can not resell it so they don't want it as a trade. Ford should be made to either buy back the vehicle or tell their dealers to give a special trade value. I am stuck with a car that I can not trade in and I can not let anyone ride in the front passenger seat. Ever try going on a date and she has to sit in the back seat? I guess Ford is telling us not to allow anyone in the front seat so when someone gets killed they can say they told us not to sit there. Vw got the royal screwing because of the diesel rigging and they were made to buy back the vehicles or give the owners money. Nobody died from that screw up. Ford is getting away with murder.
