Still waiting for replacement airbag from local Ford dealer
- Hollywood, FL, USA
Takata recall a new airbag inflator was installed but it does not rectify the issue. The airbag was replaced with an equivalent version. This does not solve my issue that it can rupture. I do not feel safe driving my vehicle while this recall is still open and with no remedy available.

Takata recall. 16 months after receiving my recall initial notice, the airbagrecall.com website still lists "remedy unavailable". realize there were millions to be replaced, but 16 months waiting for the bomb to go off is a really long time.

Takata recall - I see a news story that some of this recall in Texas will be expedited, it seems like my vehicle would be applicable for this. But the ntsb VIN check website still says "recall status: Recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available" I would like to know why my vehicle is not included in this new expedited effort for Texas vehicles.

Driver airbag inflator replacement.. NHTSA recall number: 16V036 recall date: January 22, 2016 manufacturer recall number: 16S03 Ford has yet to contact me to let me know if the part is available, this is unacceptable. The recall says the driver side airbag inflator could rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the supplemental frontal airbags are designed to deploy. If this occurs, it may increase the risk of injury or death to the occupants. If it is this serious, than why am I still driving this vehicle, I should be in a rental until this recall is accomplished. There are already deaths involved, this is why there is a recall. I was in a minor accident on November 23, 2016, I am blessed that my airbag didn't deploy, now I'm more worried than ever.

Takata recall - my vehicle is equipped with recalled takata airbags on both drivers and passengers sid/ I have taken the recall notices to the dealer that I bought it from, and have been told the parts are on order aaeveral months ago. Past that, the dealer has no information and is not trustworthy. Ford's website has a lot a fluff, but no answers. I have two questions: First, are both of these permanent replacements" if they aren't, then what is the point? second, can the takata airbags be removed and/or replaced in this vehicle by means other than this insane recall"
