It has been a year since I was advised of the federal safety agency recall 17v‑024. I just called the dealership and they still don't have the parts. Did not take my name or any information, just told me to call back in a week.

Takata recall -- I have repeatedly called my local ford dealership about having my airbags replaced and each time I'm told that ford doesn't have the parts available to fix my vehicle. Meanwhile, I've received notice after notice about how anyone who rides in my passenger seat is at risk of dying a tragic, painful death until my airbag is replaced, essentially rendering my car worthless if I can never put anyone in the passenger. There's a total lack of transparency and urgency from ford. I never receive communications from them with any updates.
Takata recall. I keep getting the runaround. The dealer tell me to contact the manufacturer. The manufacturer says contact the dealer. So who is the responsible party?
Takata recall I am upset that ford tells me that my vehicle is involved in a recall and shouldn't be operated with anyone in the front passenger seat. I purchased a vehicle that cannot be safely operated with a passenger? This is unacceptable. Ford says that they don't have replacement parts available yet.
Takata recall - issue still not remedied after 18 months of waiting for notice to replace defective components! Airbag dash light is on all the time.
The passenger front airbag inflator could rupture if involved in crash. Issue was identified in 2016 and there is still no remedy available.
Takata recall I received a first notification of the takata recall in july 2016. A second notice was received in december 2017. To date, there have been no parts available; I am told there is no loaner provided; and I am forced to drive a vehicle that admittedly is unsafe. Furthermore, I live in the war, humid climate conditions of florida. Is ford required to provide alternative transportation due to the safety issues after this long period of time.
