Now the airbag light in the instrument panel is turning on and off randomly. I took my car back to the dealership who replaced the airbag and they say this is a common issue and has nothing to do with what they did. So now i do not know if my car is…

Takata recall - there is no remedy for this issue at this time and i would like this issue resolved. I have been waiting for 2 years for my car to get fixed. That is too long. Using a rental car in lieu of fixing my car does not work for me. I fear for my life and for the life of any passengers in the car. Ford should replace my car with a similar vehicle that doesn't have this problem. To date the airbags have not…

The last letter said sometime this year, 2018, i would be contacted by ford to come in to have it replaced. And now i see there is a class action settlement in the play because ford has not taken the proper action. Very disappointing.…
