There has been a recall on the passenger airbag since june 2016. This recall states that the passenger airbag could rupture if ever involved in a crash and give no protection to my passenger. As of today there is still no remedy to this problem. This is is a takata product. The delay in correcting this dangerous issue is reckless and irresponsible and puts people I love in danger every day. There needs to be a correction and it needs to be replaced in my vehicle before there is a tragedy!!

Takata recall - received recall notice july 2016, but still not fixed when timeline shows to be recalled by may 2016 in kansas. The recall notice doesn't accomplish any safety without the fix!!! Ford contends car is safe to operate based on technical data, advising that they "have no reports of any explosions in ford vehicles", and the federal safety agency will not provide data to public on what cars have exploded to enable verification by public. This is in direct conflict with the recall notice, which says defect could result in serious injury or death. I purchased two of these vehicles from two separate ford dealers in kansas city area in november 2015 without any notifications of the defects despite the federal safety agency being aware of these defects for many years prior to my purchases. How is the safety mission of the federal safety agency being met here??? Why are these dangerous cars still being sold with the federal safety agency not objecting?
