Takata airbag inflator! received a long overdue letter from the Ford Motor Company to take my vehicle in to a Ford dealer and have the inflator fixed and made an appointment and took it in! was told it would take about 2 hours! a few hours later my vehicle hadn"T been moved and they said they had more important jobs to do and were not sure if they would get to it! I had my son take it in and he was very upset and left! they have been very rude at this dealership before! so it seems that since this was a freebie it wasn't important to them to fix this problem!

"takata recall" takata recall 16V-384 hello. I received a recall notice in July 2016 regarding air bag replacement on my 2008 Ford Edge. It said parts were not available, and I would be notified again when it was available. In October of 2016 I received military orders to move from California to belgium, and brought my car with me. I received another notice in Nov 2018 that the part was now available. I have since contacted Ford several times via the customer service number provided on the recall form. The representatives have repeatedly given me misinformation. During my last call with customer service just yesterday, it was confirmed by the representative, that due to my current residence in belgium, replacing the airbag was just not an option. She said the Ford recall computer does not connect with belgium. When I contacted a belgium Ford dealer, they had no idea what I was talking about, no visibility to the recall. The dealer here also told me they have had to turn away numerous others in my same situation. I don't know what else to do now. We have a family of four, and I am worried about their safety. I will not be back in the U.S. for at least 3 years, maybe longer. Help!? thank you. W.S.

Takata recall I received a letter regarding NHTSA recall 16V-384 in December of 2017 stating that Ford discovered a severe safety risk in the passenger airbag of my vehicle in July 2016. Almost a year later, in November of 2018 I received another letter that said parts are available for my vehicle and I should call a dealer to schedule an appointment. I called the dealership and scheduled an appointment on December 3, but they said I would have to wait until the part arrived. It has been almost 3 weeks since I made the appointment, and that is nowhere near the amount of time my wife and I have waited for Ford to even have parts available for our vehicle. I am beyond frustrated that every time I drive the car with anyone else they either have to sit in the back or risk metal shrapnel in the case of an accident. This is an especially relevant fear during the winter months when icy road conditions make accidents much more likely. I am extremely disappointed that Ford has known about this issue for 2 and a half years and I am still waiting for a fix for my vehicle. I know I am not the only one waiting, and that makes it even more appalling that Ford has not been more timely in fixing this recall.
