Takata recall i received a recall notice more than a year ago but have yet to receive an official notice that the parts are available and an appointment can be made. I continually call the ford dealerships in my area and i'm continually told it's a "preliminary recall" and the parts aren't available. If this product is defective and dangerous, i shouldn't be made to driver for more than a year with unsafe components.

Takata recall. I contacted my local dealer twice over this past year and ford refuses to give me a date when they can fix my car. Honda fixed my airbag over a year ago and gave me a free rental. Ford does not care if anyone dies in my car. This is unacceptable.
