I am still receiving airbag notices and Ford has not supplied the necessary replacement airbags to my dealership. It has been over 3 years of notices. Ford customer service does not respond. I cannot access anyone by phone or online. I want the notices to stop or to include the info about when the airbags can be replaced. Ford is placing this customer in daily danger. One customer service rep even told me to keep driving my car, it is ok!!! the notices say replacement is urgent but do not supply the airbags to dealerships. Ford is scamming this customer.

Takata recall Ford has been sending me recall notices. Urgent, scary but Ford lies and still does not have the replacements. I am being harassed by weekly notices. I have been to many dealerships, no parts. Ford is deceptive about these repairs. Please make the company stop sending me panic mail until they supply the parts. This is criminal, after 3 years!!!!

Takata recall based on my experience, Ford Motor Company is dissolving itself of any responsibility after sending a letter out that states parts are available. However after notifying dealer of letter from Ford over three weeks ago and hearing nothing, call Ford whose representative says it is my responsibility to get dealer to get the part and schedule the repair. Since calling the dealer over 3 weeks ago with what appears to be no action what am I to do next. It is evident that the government has lead Ford to believe they have done all they need to do with a letter "campaign" so where does that leave the individual that may be injured with defective equipment. Will a letter campaign pay medical bills or look after my family death. Any suggestions"????"
