Takata recall. I was notified 22 months ago about the passenger air bag. Lincoln has done nothing and continues to delay replacing the airbag. Meanwhile, Honda and Toyota have helped their customers. How can they get by with this? I think they should be required to make the recalls before selling new cars.
