Takata recall - my vehicle is involved in the takata air bag recall and I contacted my local dealer as requested concerning this recall. They advised that they have no parts availability date for necessary parts to replace or repair the passenger air bag in my vehicle. They also indicated that the VIN indicates that the driver air bag is not noted as being a takata item or it has previously been serviced as I have had this vehicle since july 2015 and have no knowledge of anything prior to that time. My local ford dealer indicates that to their knowledge nothing is in work to furnish the parts necessary to correct the issue with the takata air bags other then their recent filing for bankruptcy which certainly indicates these necessary parts most likely will not be forthcoming. Is the federal safety agency involved in any action to assist in making the necessary recall parts available to the ford service network so our vehicles can be repaired or what other action can be pursued to resolve this unsafe situation with these vehicles? .

Takata recall - I was involved in an accident involving a deer hit in october 2017 which caused my airbag to deflate improperly. The plastic ruptured, the airbag only partially inflated and the plastic came back and punctured my stomach. If I would not have had my seatbelt on, it would have gone deep into my stomach, possibly causing surgery. I never received an airbag recall notice prior to this incident. I had purchased in the truck in december 2014. My vehicle ended up totaled in the accident, but I knew there was a problem with the inflation of the airbag.
"takata recall" notified in july 2016 that passenger airbag was a safety hazard. Told they would call when the part was available. Called ford customer service in june 2017 and told the parts were still not available and this was not really a safety hazard and I would be contacted when the parts are available. Received a letter today from ford that they want me to voluntarily participate in an "important safety research study" to "replace the takata driver airbag inflator free"/ "this is not a safety recall". So they have the parts to replace the driver side that has not been recalled and after 16 months ford still hasn't the parts to replace the passenger airbag that is a safety hazard. Something is wrong at ford/

Takata recall - I received a recall notice in july, 2016 and have yet to get my airbag replaced. On october 26, 2017 (over a year later) I phoned our local ford dealership here in columbus, ga (rivertown ford @ 706‑653‑7420) and was informed that they do not know when the parts will be available. I was given the number for ford customer relations center (800‑392‑3673) whereupon I phoned and was told the same thing. My husband drives a toyota corolla with the same recall notice. He is getting his repaired on 10/28/17 through rivertown toyota, columbus, ga. I do not understand why ford is not expediting this repair since it is a major concern regarding life or death with the airbag possibly rupturing in the event of a crash. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Takata recall. Notification of july 2016 stated my vehicle was under the safety recall notice 16s26 / the federal safety agency recall 16v‑384. Since then, there has been no activity or correspondence. Have placed numerous calls to the dealership who informed me they have no replacements. Now I am notified of the takata bankruptcy proceedings with implications I may lose any legal recourses if the repair is not made. Why has no further activity been pursued to satisfy my recall? How do I protect myself and family from pending disaster?

Takata recall it's been 17 months since I received a recall notice from ford motor company telling me the need to get new airbags. The airbags haven't deployed, but I drive this car daily and am concerned for my safety. Last week my local ford dealer said, it could be 2 days, 2 weeks, 2 months, or 2 years before we get replacement airbags." they weren't very helpful. That's simply not acceptable ... It's been 17 months already!! Is there an alternative way to get replacement airbags??

No accidents yet, but I feel it is unsafe for anyone to eride with me or to take llong trips. Please help since no one else will.
