Takata recall

- Danville, CA, USA

Takata recall. I received a recall notice from Ford in the mail March 2017. Called March 10,2017 nearest dealer, I was informed that I had to wait for the second letter that will inform me that the parts are. It's been 8 months, no second letter, but received a legal notice from tk holdings about the airbag and chapter 11 case no. 17-11375. Called dealer again, was informed they can't help me, because no parts. I am still driving my car with a defected airbag. Seems to me it is very unsafe.

Takata inflators. After receiving notice of recall in March, 2017 on a 2007 Ford Fusion, no other notice of service or required action was given until legal notice of takata chapter 11 bankruptcy was sent. Still waiting for recovery for repair of faulty parts. Risk of injury is the reason for the complaint; the risk of injury isn't being compensated in any way waiting for proper repairs.

Takata recall received a post card from tk holdings regarding a takata airbag recall. We checked airbagrecall.com and found that our Ford Fusion 2007 was included in that recall. We were advised to call the local Ford dealer to have the passenger side airbag replaced immediately. Sexton Ford in moline was very rude and the only information they would give us was that there are no parts available to fix this. How can there not be any parts available for a recall that, if not fixed, may result in death? now we are unable to utilize the passenger seat of our car until the airbag is replaced.

I received notification over one year ago (July 2016 letter from Ford) that my 2007 Ford Fusion airbag had been recalled by the manufacturer. I patiently waited to receive a letter indicating that I could take my vehicle in for a replacement airbag. Upon contacting the local dealership numerous times, the dealership also repeatedly informed me that they could not make the repair/replacement until a letter was received by Ford approving the replacement. Yesterday I received notification that the manufacturer, tk holdlings Inc, is in the process of filing chapter 11. Upon researching with the information provided on the chapter 11 notice and Ford letter, the only updated information I can find (other than my car is one on the recall list for an airbag) is from www.saftercar.gov in which the site states, "recall status: Recall incomplete, remedy not yet available." From what I understand the airbag when deployed can cause injury and possible death. This matter is over a year old and I use my vehicle for business purposes. Every day that I get into my vehicle, I feel like I am driving a loaded gun and am very concerned for my safety and specifically any passenger that rides with me (it is the passenger airbag that is being recalled). This process is not being handled in a timely matter and would I like to it expedited as soon as possible.

Takata recall - received notice of this recall almost 2 yrs ago with no dealer having the product available to make the repair. The dashboard area where the airbag is located has loosened and appears to worsen as time passes. I am concerned that something major is going to happen at some point. Ford dealers have no idea when they will be able to make this repair. My vehicle has around 75000 miles on it and is more than 10 yrs old so obviously it has not be overly used or abused.

Takata recall I have had this recall for a year and they still have no idea when they will have the part. I just can not figure out why this is taking so long. Now takata is bankrupt and my car is still not fixed. I hope it still gets fixed even with them getting bought out. Ford is dragging their feet on fixing their customers cars not thinking about could happen to the people driving these vehicles if they are involved in an accident.
