Takata recall: Problem with Ford dealership I received notice of the recall in January. I called the local dealer (purvis Ford) in February, again in March and again last week (June 4 ). I spoke with I believe the service manager the last two times. Both these times I recall leaving all pertinent information. This process is taking too long. I was told Ford has not sent the replacement devices. But I was also asked where I bought this vehicle. That should not matter. What responsibility do Ford and the dealer have to fix my vehicle quickly? I am afraid to drive it and will not have passengers. I believe Ford is being negligent in their efforts to protect me and my family.

I have received multiple notices from Ford about the recall for the airbag and that parts are now available. When I contact a local dealer, they say, parts are not available and they have no idea when the parts will be available. This has been going on now for years. They are acknowledging the recall, but not supplying a solution.

Ford Motor Company sent me a recall notice for both driver and passenger takata airbags in January, 2018. This notice says replacement air bags are available. My local Ford dealer ordered replacement air bags in March, 2018. My dealer has not yet received the replacement air bags (as of 23 April 2018). This dealer says Ford has failed to supply replacement air bags for a large number of locally owned Ford products. Ford has lied to me by saying replacement parts are available, and has failed to supply parts for a mandatory recall of potentially deadly pieces of my vehicle. I urge the NHTSA, in the strongest possible terms, to join with other federal agencies to sanction Ford Motor Company with huge monetary fines and criminal charges against its executives, and to force Ford Motor Company to immediately provide replacement air bags for all its affected vehicles. Meanwhile, force Ford Motor Company to furnish to affected Ford vehicle owners, free of charge, similar vehicles for customer use until Ford's explosive takata air bags are actually replaced. This corporate malfeasance is unconscionable. My government needs to protect me from this long known, potentially deadly, faulty product.
