Went in to newberg ford dealership in newberg, oregon about a month and a half ago, to ask about the takata airbags and if I can schedule a time to get replaced. The person at the counter informed me that they do not have the fix in and that whoever was responsible is going through the united states by sections and that oregon was the last section. My daughter drives this car and want it fixed as it is potentially very unsafe. Not sure what I can do. The airbag seems to be bulging out of the dashboard at this time.
