Takata recall - Ford has sent a letter stating that the passenger seat may not be used until further notice. It is difficult to see this letter as anything other than a disingenuous attempt to shift their liability to the owner especially as their website as of today is in conflict with the letter stating, 'your vehicle is affected by a takata airbags recall. Parts are not yet available, but your vehicle is safe to drive in the meantime.' This issue has been in play for almost two years and involves a threat of 'serious injury or death' to myself and my family. I require a straightforward, clear response. Please see my letter to Ford attached. Thank you

Takata recall. I was notified by letter from Ford on July 2015 regarding safety recall notice 15S21/ NHTSA recall 15V-319. It has been 2.5 years and this issue has not been resolved. I continue to ask each time I bring my car for an oil change at Ford and they say they do not have the parts.

I bought my Mustang from napleton's in arlington heights, il. I was told that they couldn't give me a car fax because they were running low on paper. I just received a recall in the mail from 2016 about airbag. I'm not sure if what the carfax is on my car because they told me to get one off the internet not knowing I'd have to pay for it. There was no disclosure that this Mustang had a recall that can cause serious injuries or death. I need help I don't know what to do. You can look at yelp and read about napleton's in arlington heights il on dundee thank you

Takata recall. I have received a letter from Ford advising to not allow anyone is sit in the first row passenger seat causing injury or death. What good is a car if you cant use the front passenger seat?

Takata recall - this recall was initiated on June 1, 2016 which is now well over a year ago. We have tried that entire time to have this fixed, but the dealers tell us the parts are not yet available. Since this causes death, I am very concerned with driving this car and the possibility of the airbag deploying and killing someone needlessly. I don't understand why the recall does not have a remedy for it when other cars have a safe deplolyment. Why can't the takata recall replace the current airbag with one that is installed on other makes and models to ensure a safe drive? this recall should be a priority!

Takata recall --I received a passenger airbag recall on my 2008 Ford Mustang in July 2016. So far no response. How mush longer do have to wait. My wife has survived 2 bouts of cancer. She will not ride in it.. the last thing she wants to do is get injured or killed by a defected airbag after all she has gone thru.

I was notified in writing that the right frontal airbag had been recalled and I would be contacted when the parts came in to fix it. The left frontal airbag which had been previously recalled was fixed. I have contacted the dealer twice since notification and they told me that the parts never came in and probably would not. I am now stuck with a Mustang with a potential bomb in front of the passenger's seat, with no way to fix it or even to turn it off.

I am told there is no part to correct situation at this time! takata is out of business and that they have to make the part themselves to correct.
