Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2007 ford mustang. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 16v384000 (air bags); however, the part needed for the repair was not available. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The vehicle was taken to bud clary ford of moses lake (1140 s pioneer way, moses lake, wa 98837, (509) 765-4551), but the part was not available for the repair. The manufacturer was contacted and did not assist. The contact had not experienced a failure. Vin tool confirms parts not available.
Takata recall: it is unfathomable that the ford motor company and the federal safety agency feel the recall plan is acceptable for vehicle owners. We are being told to live with the defect for at least 2 full years - recall was june 2016 and latest notice is that parts for some vehicles are expected in spring 2018. During this time the remedy is that passengers cannot ride in the front seat. This is totally unacceptable and inflicts irreparable damage to vehicle owners as this remedy severely limits use of the vehicle far below its intended use. I realize the recall is with respect to a part supplied to ford, but this makes no difference. When I buy the vehicle, I purchase a ford vehicle, period. I feel it is a dereliction of duty for the federal safety agency to have allowed this recall plan to be forced unfairly on to vehicle owners. I believe the plan should be amended such that ford is required to develop the parts sooner and, moreover, vehicle owners should be compensated for this extreme limitation on the use of our vehicles. I'm sure if a company like ford really wanted to expedite the process, it has the resources to do so. The federal safety agency really let ford off the hook on this one. So disappointing.
Takata recall on airbags
Takata recall, jun 01,2016, manufacturer recall number16s26, the federal safety agency recall number16v384. Passenger side air bag recall dated 6-1-17. In december 2017 I am notified not to let anyone sit in the passenger seat. This effectively makes my car a one person car because no human adult can fit in the rear seat. I have asked my dealer for a loaner until the airbag is replaced and was denied. It is now 20 months since the original recall. Certainly ford is selling new cars with airbags. Why has it taken so long to replace my airbag? Please force ford to provide loaner cars in order to make them get serious about the recall. They sourced the inadequate takata airbags. This is a ford problem, them should have acted in a timely manner.

Takata recall, passenger side airbag could rupture in an accident killing my passenger. My passenger is going to be someone I love so the law suite will be severe. This is a well known problem that has been going on for years! Not having a solution to the problem yet is not acceptable.
Takata recall - I received a notice in july 2016 of the recall of my vehicle due to a defective takata air bag on the passenger side. Availability of replacement parts has been repeatedly delayed. As of a december 2017 notice the earliest parts are expected to be available is spring 2018. The advisory warns that no passengers should occupy the front passenger seat until repairs are made. The delay of part availability is unacceptable. I have a vehicle that can't carry a passenger, and has limited resale value due to the defect.

"takata recall" its been 11months since I got my safety recall notice and its still not fixed. Why is it taking so long.
Takata recall 17s01. Passenger front airbag inflator could rupture if this vehicle is involved in a crash. Waiting for months for a remedy. Dealer admitted, levittown ford in ny, that only southern states are getting the parts for this repair as of now, and that I will be notified. Ford states that it is safe to drive yet there is contradictory and inconsistent statements and evidence that supports a danger to the front passenger side. If the parts are available in southern states, there is no evidence that supports that northern states are less at risk of injury from a rupturing defective airbag. I am furious that I cannot put a front passenger in the car, with good conscience, that there could be a serious injury caused by this defect. Please look into the misleading recall status, "recall incomplete, remedy not yet available." catching ford in a lie will not lead to a good outcome for them should my car not get fixed soon.
Takata inflators the existing recall on the passenger airbag of july 2016 indicates that it is not safe for a person to ride in the front passenger seat. I just received a notice that it is hoped that there will be a fix for this defect in 2018. Because the back seats of this model of mustang have limited space for legs, my vehicle is now limited to accommodating the driver only. This car was not purchased as a commuter vehicle and it appears that I will be looking at about two years where I can't use it. This seems like and extremely long fine to address this problem. Is there any other options for getting this fixed or replaced?
Takata recall. When in time will there be a remedy to fix this problem on my 2007 ford mustang.
No passenger front seat air bag replacement is available for this 2007 ford mustang gt. I am concerned because of the age of the car (11 years ) and that it has continuously been kept in a hot and humid climate -ocean city, md. It meets all 3 criteria for priority replacement. As of 1/15/2018 no replacement is available. I received a letter telling me not to use the front seat for passengers.
Takata recall: I'm not able to transport any individual in the front seat of my car and that is an inconvenience. I think this has been an issue for almost 2 years.
"takata recall" I have had my mustang to the ford dealer 2 times now to deal with the air bag recall. They didnt complete the work. They only did 1/2 the job and said they would call me when they received the rest of the parts needed to complete the repair. Now I understand there is no remedy. This has been going on for over 1 year and I need to use my car. Cant sell it because it has an active recall. What am I to do? Drive a dangerous car and possibly hurt my grandkids? I want a resolution, either disconnect the air bag or replace it.
Takata recall - my safety recall notice 16s26 / the federal safety agency recall 16v‑384 for 2 years, I have been trying to get this inflator recall resolved with ford. I have been told multiple times parts are not yet available. I understand this is a very large recall, but 2 years is unreasonable and I need this repaired as soon as possible
Got a recall letter to replace the airbag passenger side
Takata recall: I have been waiting for the replacement airbags to be available for the passenger side of the vehicle. It has been almost one year that this has been happening. I am filing this formal complaint per the instructions of the recall. How can we get the replacement airbags to eliminate the dangers takata has subjected many of us to?

Takata recall I have been trying to equip my car with the proper and safe airbags that were issued by ford, but the parts are never available. It has been almost 8 months still driving with an unsafe passenger airbag. This is an immediate issue!!!
Takata recall. It is taking a very long time for ford to acquire the parts and make the repair, more than 1 years since notification.
Takata recall: received a airbag recall notice 16s26 from ford. Warning to not allow anyone to ride in passenger seat! Totally ridiculous! My wife can't drive(handicapped) and I have kids that need rides. There is little to no room in back seat. Ford needs to immediately get the parts to fix this! What is taking so long? I have the letter if further information is required.
Takata recall dealer says replacement airbag is not available. Recall was 1.5 years ago.
