    Takata recall. I have been asking my local dealer when the driver side airbag will be replaced. I have been told the same quote for years, "when ford finds a new supplier for the takata air-bag we will have one for you". My family cannot ride in my passenger front seat. If this is a mandatory recall, then why isn't ford made to replace the part? Why cannot ford just use a new airbag in place of the old air-bag? I…

    I contacted my ford dealership to schedule the replacement of the passenger frontal airbag. They tell me they do not have the replacement part and that they have been waiting 1.5 years to get the part. The deployment of defective airbags could result in death. The fact that the replacement part has been on order for 1.5 years and has still not been sent to ford dealerships is not acceptable.
