Takata recall. I get a letter from ford every 6 months saying they are going to replace the defective air bag. But nothing has happened. I have owned this car since 2007. I don't want to have to worry about being injured by a defective air bag.

That is not sufficient for me as i transport children on a daily basis and this is my…

Takata recall - i've called my local ford dealer (spradley barr ford) twice now regarding an airbag recall for my vehicle and both times the have said they can't do anything about it because they don't have the parts and to check back in another month or so. Why have a recall if i can't actually get my vehicle taken care of, isn't this a safety hazard?

Called dealership about getting replacement air bag installed because of the recall letter i received. Said i needed to wait until that grouping of vehicles were to be serviced. I've been waiting over 6 months -- and still nothing. If this vehicle is unsafe because of faulty airbag, why don't they expedite the service and replacement?

Airbag recall letter received in june 2016, again more recently, and still no follow up as to actual replacement of faulty parts. No issue with the air bag noted, but not comfortable driving around with a part known to perform dangerously when it should be protecting the driver.

Takata recall still waiting for a replacement for the airbag. Every time i call the dealer, they say no parts are available. Was sent a notice from ford saying not to let anyone ride in the front passenger seat. The only reason we still have this vehicle is to get my 97 year old mother to and from the doctor. That is the only seat we can get her in and out of. There is no solution. We need the airbag replaced and…
