Takata recall - I was notified of this recall almost a full year ago. However, there has been no resolution. More often than not, there are passengers in my vehicle, and I (we) would like the reassurance of having this recall completed so that we know we are safe riding in this vehicle. I have called the dealerships a few times, and have been informed that the parts needed for this recall have not even been produced yet. Please let me know when I may expect this issue to be resolved.

Takata recall - received a letter today from Ford that the remedy parts have been delayed. The first notification dates back to June 2016. Ford's recent request to delay the recall failed, but now we are being notified that the parts are not going to be available at the timeline stated in June 2016 notice, with no firm timeline indicating when they will be available. Meanwhile, Ford is directing me to not use my passenger seat. This is not a timely recall repair, and it is leaving consumers limited in how they utilize their vehicles.

Takata recall the passenger frontal airbag could rupture causing death or injury. This recall is incomplete, I contacted Ford as instructed to do so to correct this recall and they informed us that takata (the manufacturer that made the airbags) has filed chapter 11 bankruptcy. I am being told there is no remedy available yet. I am driving myself and my children around in an unsafe vehicle.

Takata recall'', I received a letter last year about the airbag recall and never heard anything else until October 2017 a postcard saying the takata company has filed bankrupt and the parts are not yet available. I get a letter in December stating that the parts are still unavailable and maybe by spring 2018 I should get my airbag replaced on the driver side and I was also instructed not to have any passengers on the passenger side or the airbag will erupt and could cause injury or even death. I was reading in the newspaper about the same airbag in Honda and the driver airbag erupted and the driver was killed, how am I surpose to believe that my passenger side is only defected and not both. I also use my car for my job, I Transport me clients to their outing, and appointments this is certainly a inconvenience to me and possibly not having a job. This situation needs to be correctly before it causes a hardship on me and many others who are experiencing this recall as to this date I have not had a problem or every been in a accident with me Ford 2008 Edge, I want to feel safe while I drive and when I am driving others. Please respond to my complaint and take in consideration this may happen to me after the December 27th 2017 deadline to complain.

Takata recall - I received a letter from Ford motor city company explaining that my car should not be driven with a passenger in the front seat until spring of 2018 when a safety recall can be completed. This renders the car basically useless for the application which it was purchased.

Takata recall. I received notification in the mail from tk holdings regarding an important legal notice for owners of vehicles with takata airbag inflators. I contacted westway Ford in irving Texas as my Ford Edge came up as one of the vehicles in the recall of the air bags. Their service department told me the parts for the recall are not available and that I would receive a letter from Ford when the parts would be available. How do I get this issue rectified asap? my daughter drives the vehicle.
