Takata recall. My Ford Ranger has been under recall for the passenger side airbag since July, 2016. I realize takata is in bankruptcy, but both the notice of filing and the takata recall site state this should not impact the ability to get the airbag repaired. Unfortunately, when I called laird noller Ford in topeka, ks they claim they are unable to fix the airbag because of the takata bankruptcy as they can't get the part(s) they need. I just want the airbag fixed so it is safe.

Takata recall: It has been over a year since I was notified my passenger airbag may cause me death if it deploys in an accident. Each time I call a Ford dealership or Ford company directly I am told the airbag is not available with no time table as to when it will be. This is unacceptable as everyday I drive the truck I am at risk of death. I want the air bag replaced or an even vehicle exchange for a compatible one.

I received a recall notice in July of 2016 about the passenger frontal airbag inflator being defective on my 2010 Ford Ranger. I called on July 25, 2017 about the recall and they said the repair parts were not available yet. It's ridiculous that it takes this long to correct the problem. In the mean time, my passenger is at risk of injury or death.

"takata recall" parts to repair the airbag have not become available in 7 years. Ford dealerships and online information can give no foreseeable future date for repair. I'm hesitant to carry passengers fearing possible injury or worst. I understand from current information that driver may also be at risk for injury.
