I'd check with them every couple months with the latest being 10/17/17, and still no luck to correct this problem.

    Takata recall. I am unable to go to any dealership to have the airbags replaced because there is none to replace them with which means the value of my car has been dramatically reduced and more importantly its an extreme safety hazard to me and anyone in the vehicle with me.

    Takata recall. Upon attempting to trade in the vehicle i was informed that it is worth one third of the book value since the air bag is apparently under recall and ford is offering no fix for this problem so i am left driving a dangerous vehicle that i cannot sell or trade. "no remedy" is not an acceptable answer.

This model does not have an off switch for the passenger side front air bag so i cannot have a front passenger ride safely with me in this car as it stands now.
