Takata recall. I received two letters in the mail from ford discussing the need to recall and replace the airbags in my vehicle, dated approximately february and march 2018. The letters indicated that I would be notified at a later date as to when and where I could take my vehicle to have the airbags replaced. Since then, I have not received any documentation or updates on the matter and have not received any direction on replacing my airbags. It has been over a year now since ford has issued this recall and they still have done nothing.

Takata recall -- it's been over a year since I received the recall notice from ford and this issue still has not been fixed. Seems like an excessive amount of time to wait for a fix when it's possible the airbag could explode upon accident.

My car has a airbag recall notice, I have been waiting for a repair on my car for months, I have the rental car but I received a call today from the local dealership that I have to return the rental tomorrow but they cannot give me a eta on the repair for my car? All they told me is that they would no longer pay for the rental after today. I have a family of 5 so I'm not sure how I can put my family in my car and be safe? My recall number the federal safety agency 16v‑384. I was hoping someone can give me direction on this. I called ford motor company and was told that I would have to ask for a extension from the same dealership that told me I have to return the rental car in less than 24 hours. They told me they do not get involved in privately owned dealerships. Wasn't ford motor company the one that had the recall????
