Takata recall - I received the safety recall notice in march 2017. It stated that ford would contact me when the parts are available. I received the notice from tk holdings, inc. About the class action lawsuit vs. Takata. It states that the deadline for filing claims against takata is 12/27/17. I called towne ford dealership in orchard park, ny to schedule the replacement. They stated that they do not have the parts yet. My concern is that this is a stall tactic by both takata and ford to delay past the 12/27/17 date and absolve them of any exposure. I should not have to pay for legal counsel on this matter. Any advise would be welcome/

Takata recall. I was notified nearly 2 years ago that this airbag issue was a risk factor on my car. I have called local ford dealerships numerous times and been told that the parts are not available to repair my car. I was told that my email address is in their files and that I will be notified when parts are available. I have now received a postcard telling me of a bankruptcy case involving the makers of the faulty parts. I have not had an accident. I do want this repair made to make my car as safe as it is intended to be.
I received a recall notice a year ago, and I keep calling my dealer webb ford in highland indiana, and ford in dearborn michigan, still have not replaced my passenger takata air bag!! Can not give me a date when it will be replaced. Have asked ford to deflate the bag I feel I would be safer without it but they won't "due to safety issues''!

The airbag for my vehicle has been recalled for almost an entire year, and the parts to fix it have not yet been made available. This is not being taken care of in a timely manner. The area on the dashboard around the airbag has significant warping, and I have been advised against using the front passenger seat.
Takata recall. Received notification from ford in june 2016 that airbag has been recalled. Heard nothing since. My vehicle needs a new airbag and my dealer says they haven't heard anything yet about it and has no replacement airbags to fix my car.
Took the my vehicle in twice to the ford dealer in westlake,ohio. First time in july, 2016 and the second time in may, 2017. Both times they informed me they could not do anything until they received the replacement and they had no idea when this would be.
Takata recall I called ford to schedule an appointment to replace the recalled air bags over a year and a half ago. I have called since then and still no one has gotten back to me to replace the "death trap" airbag. Does someone in my family have to die in order to have the airbag replaced?
Takata recall spoke to johnson ford on east st pittsfield ma 01201 and they said they wont have parts because the company is filing chapter 11. This is a serious matter that someone needs to correct
Takata recall - in june 2016 we were notified there was an issue with the airbag on this vehicle and to wait for them to send another notice when there was a repair available. It has now been more than a year, and we have not received this notice. We have another vehicle under the same recall (2005 dodge dakota), for which we received instructions to contact a dealer for replacement of the faulty airbag in the initial warning about the recall (within the past couple of weeks) - my complaint is that obviously there is a solution if dodge can offer replacement of the airbag - however, we have been waiting over a year with no similar offer from ford.
Takata recall. We have contacted our ford dealer and they do not have the replacement part nor do they indicate when they'll receive it.

Takada recall. I have a 2008 ford fusion that has a passage side air bag that is potentially defective. Nearly two years ago I got a letter from ford stating that the air bag would be replaced when parts were available. To date I've heard nothing.

Takata recall in june 2016 I received a recall notice from ford (16s26) on a takata passenger. As of oct 2017 there has been no solution provided. Last week I got a notice saying that takata is ending all claims on dec 27 when I called takata and ford, neither company could tell me what to do other than to wait for a pending solution. So if the airbag goes off and causes an injury after dec 27th I have no recourse. Since the terms of the document they gave me indicate that I can submit a claim for future incidences I tried going to the website to do so but the link to fill out the claim for is not working.
Takata recall noticed about recall, however no action taken by ford to date. When went for regular oil change at dealership, inquired about recall. Was advised by service shop that there was nothing indicated yet.

Takata recall-- my local ford dealer, heiser ford, has indicated they do not have the available parts to perform this recall, and don't know when they will. This is outrageous and I fear dangerous to my continued reliance on the airbags. How can I get this recall corrected?
"takata recall" contacted dealer a year ago and no appointment to complete the installation of new airbag.
I received a letter in july of 2016 for a recall for air bags, called ford two times last year and airbag not in. I called my ford dealer today october 28, they still do not have air bag. Also received in mail yesterday that's takata is declaring bankruptcy.
Received recall notice and contacted dealer (magic city ford - roanoke, va 24019), but they said that they could not do anything, and that I need to contact the number on the recall form. When I called that number, they told me to contact the dealer. No incident has occurred.
"takata recall" I received a recall letter approximately 15 months ago. Went to ford dealership and was told they don't have any airbags for my vehicle. Didn't know when the would get them. Called ford motor customer service. All I got from them was an apology and you'll have to wait. I would like to get this hazard air bag problem resolved asap.
