The passenger airbag has not been replaced but I have a work order from my local dealership claiming they completed the recall. And my power steering/advance trac and automatic breaking system are not working. My power steering locked up on me driving 70 mph going down the highway. 3 of my 4 interior door latches have come apart and broke causing us to have to roll the window down to get out of the vehicle. There are a couple more items that should be considered safety recalls that are not on my model and year, but are covered on other years before and after my year.

I have contacted the Ford dealership in my area over a year ago and still have not been serviced on the air bag recall. Also, the power steering system is faulty. I am getting no assistance in repairing from the location the vehicle was purchased from. Power steering message appeared on my dash while driving. This is the second vehicle I have gotten from the dealer with a power steering issue.

Ford Recall 21S12 (NHTSA Recall 21V-158) (Driver's Airbag) has no remedy yet. The earlier recall for the passenger side airbag took many years complete. I'm the original owner, and it has been under air bag recalls that seem to not have Ford's attention for several years of my twelve years of ownership. Isn't about time for NHTSA to start applying pressure for Ford to take action? No incident yet, but I really don't want to have one either.

The manufacturer has not supplied a repair part for a defective airbag that could kill me or my children as this is one of our primary vehicles. It has been 1.5 years since the recall, this needs to be remedied more quickly! We have high humidity here, which makes it even more likely to explode. Please put pressure on Ford to fix this issue.

Notified of recall 21V-158 for the driver side airbag in April 2021. It has been over a year and there is still no remedy. I do not consider this to be resolved in a timely manner. Does NHTSA have a definition of "timely manner" that is imposed on manufactures to complete repairs associated with safety recalls" What is being done by NHTSA and Ford to complete the repairs needed to comply with the recall"

I received a safety recall (NHTSA Recall 21V-158) regarding my 2010 Ford Fusion in April 2021 for an issue with the driver airbag inflator. This recall has still not been addressed by Ford, and I have not received any additional information from them regarding the status of the recall since April 2021. Consumer's wife will no longer be using the SRX, dangerous vehicle. Speaking to their attorney.

The NHTSA Recall 21V-158 has been outstanding for more than a year. The letter I received from Ford stated that "parts are anticipated to be available in the third quarter of 2021" which is now more than six months ago. I don't want to lose an eye or be killed by my airbag. Yet, the timeliness of the repair by Ford fails to show any urgency.
