Takata recall - I received a recall letter regarding the problem with the passenger airbag in my 2008 ford edge. My problem is arlington heights ford is saying that they will not be able to fix it for at least a year because they don't have the part.

Takata recall - received a letter today from ford that the remedy parts have been delayed. The first notification dates back to june 2016.

Takata recall'', I received a letter last year about the airbag recall and never heard anything else until october 2017 a postcard saying the takata company has filed bankrupt and the parts are not yet available. I get a letter in december stating that the parts are still unavailable and maybe by spring 2018 I should get my airbag replaced on the driver side and I was also instructed not to have any passengers on the passenger side or the airbag will erupt and could cause injury or even death. I was reading in the newspaper about the same airbag in honda and the driver airbag erupted and the driver was killed, how am I surpose to believe that my passenger side is only defected and not both. I also use my car for my job, I transport me clients to their outing, and appointments this is certainly a inconvenience to me and possibly not having a job. This situation needs to be correctly before it causes a hardship on me and many others who are experiencing this recall as to this date I have not had a problem or every been in a accident with me ford 2008 edge, I want to feel safe while I drive and when I am driving others. Please respond to my complaint and take in consideration this may happen to me after the december 27th 2017 deadline to complain.
