Takata notice and dashboard where airbags are.fash is splitting and dealer said can't be fixed. Have to order and pay for a new dash. I received a class action notice about airbags. Dealer checked and no recalls I concerned
"takata recall" we are being messed about with the local ford lincoln dealership at pines ford, in hollywood, florida. Several months ago they said they had ordered the replacement airbags, then they said they had a delivery but they were no good and have now re-ordered. We are still waiting. How long does it take to order these airbags? We are elderly seniors and although we feel we are good drivers there are so many bad drivers out there, where an accident could happen and the airbag inflates causing possible death. Can you do anything to hurry this along?

Takata recall- it has been almost 2-1/2 years since I received the recall notice..I continue to drive my car as it is my only means of transportation...when will lincoln be forced to make repairs? I am very concerned about the safety of my vehicle...
Ref. Previous complaint no. 11104176 - recalled since july 2016. April 1018 supplied rental car - said my auto could not be driven until repaired. I want my car repaired. Seems over 2 years should be enough time. I don't like the rental - I want my car back. Offered to sell to them - but they would rather waste money on rental rather than satisfy a customer.
Takata recall - deaker has had my car since 4/05/18. Have rental but they now want me to come get the car - would not allow me to drive how 4/05. This is 75 miles away & hardship for me since husband is disabled. Don't have any idea when air bag will be repaired. Have not been able to use car since july 2016 except when I alone would be driving. Help!!!! Previously reported complaint.
Takata recall letter received over two years ago. Still no fix available. The only advice I get is do not allow a passenger to sit on front passenger side. It has been way too long. I hate driving my car without using the passenger side. I will never buy another lincoln. I wasn't allowed to go two years without making a payment.
