Takata recall reporting that Ford notified me there is a delay in the remedy parts, and they are "expected" for "certain vehicles" in spring 2018. This will be a year since the recall was announced and I am concerned I may be waiting much longer or will need to purchase a new, safe vehicle.

Have been notified by Ford for the past 2 years through safety recall notice 16S26 of takata air bag recall with no remedy as of yet through a dealership. Was told by dealership that a fix would come in 2017 now they are saying possibly by spring 2018. Am seeking a loaner vehicle until, recall is complete as they have warned for the past 2 years now " do not allow anyone to sit in passenger side first row seat." Not possible when car pooling.

Takata recall... in my own words, the nhtsb is not doing its job. Takata filed for us bankruptcy protection. This recall has been active for 18+ months without a fix. Why isn't Ford Motor Company being held accountable and forced to invest enough resources to immediately remedy this potentially fatal issue?

Takata recall, to whom it may concern, I received a safety recall information letter regarding my 2007 Ford Fusion [xxx], and there's a warning not until all remedy parts become available (spring of 2018), do not allow anyone to sit in the first-row passenger seat. My big concern is that we are a family of 5 and I am not sure how am I going to seat my family safe inside my car.
