Takata recall. There has been a recall on the passenger side airbag on my ford fusion for over a year. The parts to replace the airbag are still not available. I feel unsafe driving my car, as there's risk of shrapnel impaling me and the other passengers in my car. The local ford dealership stated they legally cannot disconnect the passenger side airbag in my car. I fear for my safety driving my own car. It should not take this long to have my car fixed.
2008 fusion - vehicle identification number (VIN): [xxx] I am instructed by the first letter by ford in july 2016 and the postcard by tk holdings that the repair and replacement is free of charge and carried out by my dealer and I should approach my dealer, and I have approached my dealer several times throughout 2016 and 2017 but my dealer has not replaced and repaired the airbag because they/ford says no parts are available so far. I received a letter on july 2016, from ford motor company, po box 1904, dearborn, michigan 48121 and the letter states and reads important safety recall - safety recall notice 16s26 / the federal safety agency recall 16v‑384 on your vehicle the passenger frontal airbag inflator may rupture. I have seen so often my dealer here in carlisle family ford but they always tell me that ford does not have spare parts to repair the faulty airbag. We have now november 2017 and I got a postcard that tk holdings inc has files chapter 11. They are responsible for the faulty airbag. I showed my dealer family ford in carlisle the postcard and my dealer is telling me that they are aware of tk holdings inc and that tk holdings inc has filed chapter 11 bankruptcy , but no parts are available at this time to replace and repair my faulty airbag. My dealer is also telling me that I have to keep waiting and when sometime in the near future the parts are available they/ford will send me another letter. So far ford is not replacing and repairing the faulty airbag. I just wonder when they/ford will replace and repair the faulty airbag in my car. Sincerely, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Takata airbag recall
Takata recall: my passenger front seat airbag is faulty and that has been implicated in a number of intermittent, unexplained electrical problems and a constant "parasitic drain" on my battery requiring a replacement alternator and 2 batteries, so far. Also I have been limited in performing duties of my job which requires transportation of others who (for medical needs) need to be in the front seat for observation. Therefore I have suffered a financial loss as well. I drove this vehicle for 5 years, transporting my own children it the front seat before I received a safety recall notice. I was totally unaware of the deadly potential danger I exposed my children for hours everyday. I am now suffering from guilt, fear and shame for being unable to confidently protect my children from dangers that were well known to ford & takata for many years, but kept secret from the public. I have suffered emotional stress and psychological damage-similar to ptsd - from this situation.
