I can not have anyone sit in the front seat as that would be dangerous if I had a crash and the defective airbag was released my husband is 86 and it is a burden for him to get in and out of the back seat I am also limited with the number of people who can ride in my car because no one can get in the front passenger seat this is extremely annoying to me and my husband this annoyance has been going on for months as no dealer has offered to help each dealer tells me the ford company must release new airbag parts its amazing that this situation can go on for long it is totally unfair please tell me if there is anyway to remedy this situation thank you
