7/2016 I received my first recall notice from ford stating my passenger takata airbag was recalled. At that time my local ford dealer said the parts were being released by "zone in the u s". 12/2017 I received my second letter from ford now telling me that this could not be remedied until "spring 2018" and in the meantime "no one should ride in the passenger seat". Duh, just how in the heck is a household suppose to function in this manner? This is absolutely ridiculous on ford's part.
Takata inflators - we received a notice over a year ago that replacement would be in spring 2017. Waited and called several times - now a second letter it is spring 2018. The desired option is for passengers in front seat needing to sit in back seat - didn't spend all this money, wait this long only to wait so more - what are options to get this done sooner since we have already been waiting two years.
"takata recall" in july 2016, I received a recall notification from ford advising that the air bag inflators were defective. I just received another letter from ford dated december 2017 advising that it was unsafe for anyone to occupy the front passenger seat until the recall revision is complete. I find this to be totally unacceptable as this is our only family car. I suggest that the ford motor company furnish replacement cars with working air bags to those of us affected, at their expense until the passenger air bag in my car is repaired. Since we are now being advised that a front passenger involved in a front end collision could be fatally injured, we have lost the safe use of our car. Please investigate this matter as soon as possible. Please see warning on december 2017 recall letter.
There is a recall on the airbags, in case of a car crash they will rupture. I called a ford dealer and I was informed that they are waiting for the replacement material. What if I get in a car accident today? He said that they don't have this replacement material throughout the country. It is unacceptable!

Takata recall - we have been waiting for at least a year to have the air bags replaced. We have just checked again, this time with 2 of our local ford dealers and they say they have no replacements available. We live in coastal ca -- warm/humid -- so we are concerned that it is taking so long. Do we just have to sit and wait? This doesn't seem like timely replacement. Thank you.

Takata recall there may be an issue with my passenger side airbag deploying properly in the case of collision. However, the automobile manufacturer has not issued a recall with instructions on how to resolve the problem.
Takata recall. This recall has been going on since 06/01/2016. Ford cannot fix this problem because they do not have the part. Now we have received notice that takata is bankrupt. So we are left with a vehicle which no one can ride in the passenger seat due to the possibility of death worst case scenario! Do you want to put a family member in that seat and roll the dice!! Someone needs to come up with a fix now. Can ford not dismantle the air bag to not release as a temporary fix until the part comes in? At least this would be better for the owners of the vehicle so the seat could be used. Not to mention, safer! Oh, but that might cost someone $ and even though it is their fault, the collateral damage is worth the risk rather than loose the $....what a sad country we are living in. It has been over a year and companies cannot come up with a fix! I am shocked that ford has not gotten more involved than they have since they will be the ones who will be sued if anything bad happens. They made the vehicles and are therefore responsible. No one really cares who made the airbags. Ford should step up and make this right.

Takata recall......called dealership to schedule an appointment to replace airbag and was told the part wasn't made available and probably wouldn't be for some time and that I had to wait for a letter from ford. This should be readily available since it is potentially life threatening.

Recall was sent june 2016 and have followed up with ford dealer several times and have been told that they do not have the air bag to replace the defective one. My wife a cancer survivor and has a pillow that she places in the front of her body when I drive to protect the surgeries she has done so that there is not severe injuries if in an accident or the air bag deploys on its own
Takata recall first received recall notice july 2016 for the passenger frontal airbag inflator. Called rountree moore ford in lake city, florida. They did not have replacement airbags. Rountree moore told me to call ford to get status of airbag availability. Ford told me parts are not available right now and I will get a second notice when the parts are avialable. Still waiting on that second notice. It's been over a year now.

Takata recalla in july 2016 I received a safety recall. Ford states they don't have recall parts yet. We are in warm humid climate. Do you have any safety advice? We can not disconnect the passenger air bag.
Received recall notice last year in july 2016. Requesting status on when this recall will be completed by ford. It has been over one year and with current medical conditions have some reservations about driving a car with possible air bag deployment. Safety recall 16s26/the federal safety agency recall 16v‑384
"takata recall" - 16v‑384 I received a recall letter notice in july of 2016 and called the ford dealership right away. They did not have the part. I have inquired twice since and just called the dealership again who said they did not have the part and to call the ford helpline. I just got off the ford helpline and they said the part is still not available and I will be notified by letter when the part is available. I did express to ford that I was worried about the safety of my passengers and was not happy about this. The person on the ford helpline who identified himself as "eddie" said that ford had decided that there was no danger and they had not had any complaints about the airbag malfunctioning so the car is safe to drive according to ford. I inquired as to why only the passenger airbag was recalled and not the driver airbag or the side airbags. He said those others may be from a different manufacturer. I think that this has taken too long and I am concerned about the safety of my car. What is being done by the government to make takata correct this problem???

Takata recall -- we received a recall notice in july 2016 for the airbag in our car. I just talked to 2 ford dealerships and the ford motor company and no one knows when this will be fixed. This seems like an unreasonable delay to fix this dangerous problem.
