There are no replacement parts and no repairs available for the air bag recall. It is extremely frustrating to keep hearing on the news that people need to get their car in for repairs only to be told there are no parts! it's been over a year of waiting. And while we let the car sit for awhile, it now has to go off to college with my son. I do not feel comfortable sending a dangerous car to college! and yet what choice do I have? I can't sell the car with a recall on it and expect to get what I need out of it. I really need the government to acknowledge this is a grave concern and stop telling us to bring our cars in when there are no parts to fix the problem! it would also help if there was a buyback program to get these dangerous cars off the road!

Takata recall.

I have received safety recall notice 15S21 letters from Ford on July 2015 and May 2016 however the dealers will not allow us to make an appointment to have the driver air bag replaced. I have copied this complaint to our attorney and hold all associated responsible for any injuries as this recall has been identified over 12 months ago and the dealers are not moving expeditiously to resolve such potential injury

Needs the defective air bag replaced. Recall issued approximately a year and a half ago. Still selling new cars. Where is my replacement?

Takata recall - I received a recall notice from Ford in July of 2015. As of yet I have not been given an appointment to have this repaired. It has been brought to my attention that the repair parts supplied to the dealers are used to repair cars turned back to the dealers by lessees so the dealer can legally sell the cars of their lots. In the meantime I am driving this car with the faulty airbags in Florida risking my life and unable to sell the vehicle. Do I have any recourse in this matter as I have been told that it will probably be another six months until my car is repaired?

Takata recall - Ford advise of recal for the takata airbag safety issue in may of 2015. I just received another recall notice from Ford saying recall could not yet be fixed and current target was 2017. This is unacceptable. I have a son driving a car knowing that at any time his life could be put in danger by lack of a timely response by the manufacturer to repair a known defect of which they [Ford] are aware, notified - but done nothing. There is no legitimate excuse why Ford is forcing us to use a vehicle with a known safety defect with the takata exploding airbags without correcting the situation or providing alternative safe provisions such as use of a non-recalled vehicle of similar model, refund for the defective vehicle and its return, or replacement with a similar model vehicle without the known safety defect.

Takata recall - I was informed in July of 2015 about the safety recall notice 15S21, regarding my takata airbag. In may of 2016, I was informed that my replacement airbag will not be ready until the 4th quarter of 2016. I consider this long delay unacceptable. I have family members who are afraid to drive the car due to the potential of injury due to the airbag defect. I am requesting some other course of action.

Takata recall-does anyone have any idea how long we are supposed to wait to have our airbags replaced? my car will be 2 years old in October and I am just keeping my fingers crossed that I do not have an accident that deploys the defective airbags-this is ridiculous and could be a serious safety concern. Thank you for any information that you can provide to me as to when I might expect to actually have my airbags replaced.

Takata recall - no parts are available over a year after it was identified as an issue that can cause death! why aren't these being disabled or loaner cars being issued. How can someone drive this car knowing the part could fail and kill the driver or passenger" is it safer to drive without the airbag than with the defective one" no one at Ford would answer that question for me.

"takata recall" we feel Ford Motor Co. And planet Ford are refusing to fix the vehicle in question because of a supposed unavailability of parts. Twelve months is far too long. Two deaths in houston tx. We parked the car. The importance of completing the inflator replacement and going beyond the minimum requirement of a mailed notification. Provide alternative transportation in the form of a loaner or rental vehicle, free of charge, until our vehicle is repaired. We filed a consumer complaint form with ken paxton, attorney general of Texas. Contacted the governor, ltg, Mr. Poe and Mr. Cruz but have had no success. We sent planet Ford a copy of the complaint in a certified letter.
