Takata recall - I received recall letter July 2016. To this date the dealer (central Florida Lincoln in orlando fl) cannot give me an answer as to when the airbag will be replaced. All they tell me is that they don't have the parts yet. I am very inconvenienced as I cannot have passengers in the front seat. I see that other vehicles have been repaired - when is Lincoln going to have parts to repair?
