I have been notified that my vehicle is subject to a recall because it has a passenger takata air bag. I have repeatedly checked with my dealer, sheehy Ford in gaithersburg, md about the date my vehicle will be recalled. They have no information and no advice for me except to consider trading the vehicle in. This is totally unacceptable to me.

Takata recall: I have been entirely unable to obtain service for this recall for over one year. Every call to the dealer is rebuffed with the message that I must be a crank of some kind for wanting this recall service to be done. Airbags are important and they should fix them in a reasonable time, not make me wait years with an unsafe product.

After hitting a piece of ice the ABS system kicked in and did what it was suppose to do, however since this happen my brake pedal continues to go's to the floor barely stopping my vehicle, there are no lights on to indicate any problem, but something is wrong as brake pedal should not be that soft and go to the floor. I looked this up to see if there are any issues with other Ford Fusion and found that it is a problem with many Ford Fusion, isn't this a serious safety concern, my brakes go to the floor and there is no light to indicate there is a problem with the braking system when obviously there is or my pedal wouldn't be going to the floor.

Takata inflators I bought my Fusion in 2013. Maybe about a year and a half later one day my airbag light came on out of the blue. My car warrenty at the I believe expired. I took it to a Ford dealership and was charge I believe $99 for a diagnostic. I maybe wrong I may need to find the report from back in 2014 but I believe they said it was a bag air installed in on passenger side and it would be 900 to fix. I said no because I was a student I couldn't afford that. I have just accepted the fact it was no good. I then see this recall I got notified on and it got me wondering. So I just wanted to send this to be noted under my VIN.

"takata recall" I received a notice months ago concerning the recall. I called two different Ford dealerships. One in ozark mo and one in springfield mo. Both acknowledged there is a recall. Both said they had to order parts. Neither dealership ever called me to install new airbag.I then received information concerning the settlement. I am entering the date of 9/5/18 because it is my understanding this is was the date of the preliminary approval hearing.

There has been a recall on my airbags but there hasn't been a solution. It's been a few years and it doesn't make sense to drive this car anymore. I expect either my airbags be fixed immediately or funds to go towards a different car, considering the airbags aren't safe.
