    Takata recall, my vehicle is a 2010 ford fusion with the takata airbag recall notice. The vehicle is 9 years old and i have not received a notice to have any recall work done to fix this problem. Ford is still building new vehicles but not addressing a serious safety recall. So basically nothing has happened to fix the problem!
