Takata recall: ford is telling us we have to wait until parts are available and then they will contact us. That was over 2 months ago and still no contact. I am worried about the possibility of dangerous shrapnel should the airbag deploy.

"takata recall" (ford 18s01/the federal safety agency 18v046) - it is well over three months since the recall was announced on january 11, 2018. A remedy has not yet been offered by ford. Assuming that one is forthcoming, it can no longer be considered "timely".
I have received a letter from ford motor indicating that there is a defective airbag in my vehicle and that the passenger side airbag defect is most critical and urgent. The letter indicates that no one should sit in the passenger side front side of my 2010 ford fusion se. The letter indicates that airbag replacement parts are currently not available and the letter did not indicate a date as to when parts would become available. I have called ford in souderton pa to discuss but have not been given a call back.

Takata recall......calling dealers to obtain an approximate timeframe for the repairs. No one knows. This year? Next year? Two years? Five years? No answer. I suspect the recall is a scam. Wait long enough and the affected cars will be off the road before repairs are made.
Takata recall I received a recall notice from ford motor company in july of 2016. Recall # 16s26. Indicated I would be notified when parts available for repair. In december 2017 I received another letter informing me parts may be in spring 2018. I was also notified not to have any one sit in front seat. I recently contacted a ford dealership about availability of replacement parts and I was notified that parts may never come in. I informed the service writer that this makes the car all most useless. The reply was that the way it is. I feel all ford is doing is delaying and avoiding the expense of repair. I have friends who drive honda's that have been repaired for months.

Takata recall, ford most recently recalled the airbags in my car, however just like my previous recall there is no parts available, they say the car is safe to drive but I don't want to risk my safety as well as the others in my car if it is not. Previously my car was stuck at the ford dealership for over 8 months due to a fuel system recall, and they refused to buy back the car but did significant damage to the paint, and interior of the car when they had it. I have pictures from those damages that never got repair by ford or the dealer all they agreed to do was replace the battery in the car.

Takata recall: I just received notice that my fusion is being recalled for passenger frontal airbag inflator replacement. According to the dealership, to ford, and to the complaints posted here, the requisite replacement parts may take "forever" to become available. Meanwhile, we drive a car in which a minor accident could be fatal because of the inflator. Why are we not entitled to use a loaner car until parts are available? The cost of such a program could and should be passed on to takata. It is absurd to have millions of people driving around in these time bombs.
The ford motor company have not replace my airbags. I want the airbags replace before an accident happen. Please help me get the ford motor company to replace my airbags. Thanks.
Takata recall according to the federal safety agency website if a recall is not repaired in a timely manner then filling out this form is the next step. While I understand the takata recall is affecting a very large number of vehicles, I also understand there continue to be fatalities regarding this recall. It has now been over 20 months since this recall was issued and it still states there is no remedy available for my vehicle. This is unacceptable to continue to tell me to put my family in danger from a known possibly fatal recall that is now nearly 2 years old. Please advise how and when my vehicle will be repaired.
