I have received several letters from ford regarding the airbag recall. Whenever I ask my dealership about replacing the airbags I am told that they are not available. I called ford motor company and got the same response. What do I do?

2007 ford fusion. Consumer writes in regard to safety airbag recall no. 16s26/ the federal safety agency recall 16v‑384. *as the consumer stated the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time completing the recall repair.
In 2016, I received a letter stating that my vehicle is affected by the takata airbag recall and that I shouldn't have anyone sit in my passenger seat. I was told that I would be contacted when parts were available and the airbag would be replaced free of charge. Since that time, I have never been contacted to have the airbag replaced. This year, I received a letter dated june 2018 basically telling me the same thing...that when the parts were available, the airbag would be replaced and that should happen during the second or third quarter of 2018. So far, I still have not received any word about replacing this airbag and it has now been two full years. I have not been able to travel with anyone in the front seat which has been a major inconvenience for my family. I have called ford several times and left messages but no one ever calls me back.
In oct 2018 ford replaced recalled airbags bit after I got my car back I have a error light on dash that gives a code b2290 which is still stating that airbags are faulty.

Inside door handles are made of plastic. And therefore they break. I have had three replaced at 250.00 per replacement. When a car cost 30,000 dollars, and it is made of plastic on the parts that are used most often, and a paint that is pealing. The clear coat is flaking off and make a care look unkept. Not sure I will ever buy another ford product. My husband has a 150 truck 2008 and I tit is holding up fine.

2007 ford fusion. Consumer writes in regards to ford motor's airbag recall. * as the consumer stated the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount time completing the recall repair.
Takata recall passenger airbag light is on and I have been told it is part of recall but parts not available.
I have been calling the surrounding dealerships to help my get my car in for the recall for over a year and a half and now that I have to pay for my renewal fees with the dmv, I have to get the car smogged and it will not pass due to the airbag indicator light not turning off. I was told that the part is not in yet and yet here we are late september 2018.
Was informed a year ago that the airbag on the passenger needed replacing and went ti the ford motor co. On atlanta hwy. In athens ga. And was told of how long it would be to get it replaced because of manafacturing. When traveling we don't sit in the passenger side. To this date no contact has been made; over a year. No information was given or collected from me to take care of this issue. I want this problem fixed. This car was bought new (cash paid). Thank you in advance.
