Takata recall -- it's been over a year since I received the recall notice from Ford and this issue still has not been fixed. Seems like an excessive amount of time to wait for a fix when it's possible the airbag could explode upon accident.

My car has a airbag recall notice, I have been waiting for a repair on my car for months, I have the rental car but I received a call today from the local dealership that I have to return the rental tomorrow but they cannot give me a eta on the repair for my car" all they told me is that they would no longer pay for the rental after today. I have a family of 5 so I'm not sure how I can put my family in my car and be safe? my recall number NHTSA 16V-384. I was hoping someone can give me direction on this. I called Ford Motor Company and was told that I would have to ask for a extension from the same dealership that told me I have to return the rental car in less than 24 hours. They told me they do not get involved in privately owned dealerships. Wasn't Ford Motor Company the one that had the recall???"

Ford dealer ships are not honoring Ford settlement regarding rental cars. When complain to Ford about dealerships basicall told too bad. Can't help you. Even though they do not have the part in stock, claim they have to order it. Maybe in 3-6 weeks they may get the part.
