2010 Ford Fusion airbags complaints

Takata recall: I first read that takata airbags in my ford fusion may be defective in early 2016 and finally received recall notice from ford motor co. In july 2016 stating that my vehicle did have an airbag defect and that I would be notified when parts became available. I have called ford dealer repeatedly and have been told that no parts are available each time I called. One employee at a ford dealership laughed when I asked for the date they expected to receive repair parts and said that it would be a long time. Well it has been a long time (today is 1/29/2017). I filed an earlier complaint with the federal safety agency on 5/4/17. I read that ford was to receive $850 million from takata. It seems that ford should be required to use that money to fix airbags themselves. I recently received another notice from ford stating that they expect "remedy parts to become available for certain vehicles in the spring of 2018". When will I know if my vehicle is one of those "certain vehicles"? This most recent notice also states "do not allow anyone to sit in the first row passenger seat". This is absurd-the fusion is a small vehicle and it would seem that if the airbag ruptures causing metal fragments to strike vehicle "occupants" that everyone in the car would be at risk. This is a dangerous condition that ford has been given generous leeway to fix. The government is supposed to working on behalf of citizens--not ford motor co., I.e. Big business. Please make ford motor company take immediate action to repair or replace these airbags (recall 16s26). I am afraid of my own car.

Takata recall bought car used 8/17 not knowing the full extent of recall. That my vehicle is a potential death trap.

Takata recall. I have a 2010 fusion with a recall on the passenger side. I am told there are no parts available to repair it so I do not have full use of my vehicle since I can not use the front passenger seat. It seems the manufacturer should find alternate suppliers or provide a replacement until parts are available. I called my local dealer and was told there is nothing that can be done. Is the driver side airbag safe? Can a malfunctioning passenger airbag injure the driver or rear seat passengers?

Takata recall I cannot use my car for my family or friends due to the takata recall. Why is this taking so long and putting my family in danger!
Takata recall...ford sent me a recall on this in july 2016. Sent another one in december 2017. As of this date, still no parts to replace.
Takata recall. Ford motor recalled the car in july, 2016 and has failed and refused to fix the air bag or replace the car. I cannot allow any person to be in the car except for me, as it is too dangerous. Ford motor has recently issued a follow up letter with further delays to fixing my car. Ford has deliberately delayed the solution to the airbag, in order to force people like me to sell the car or use it as a trade in. In addition, while other manufacturers have replace the faulty airbag, ford has not, and I am informed that ford may seek be be released in the takata airbag bankruptcy.
Takata recall. I've spoken with two ford dealerships, greenway ford in orlando on 12/23 and norris ford in baltimore on 1/11, both of whom stated that there aren't any airbags in inventory. Other sites seem to suggest the inventory problem should be solved by now. I received my notice of a recall months ago. My parents drive a nissan versa, and their nissan dealership just gave them a rental car to drive until the part comes in.
