Takata recall i have not been able to transport my grandchildren in my vehicle for months. Is there an option to avoid waiting for the manufactures to correct this problem? Are there approved air bag repair facilities that can fix this problem? It appears that it may be several years before my car is repaired.

During july 2016, i received a letter from ford motor company recalling one of my ford mustang air bags (recall 16v-384, 16s26). After patiently waiting for a year and a half for a letter stating new air bag inflators were available, i called ford last week to get a recall status.

Takata recall. After 3 years, ford still does not have my passenger side inflator ready to install. This is ridiculous, and i refuse to be forced to take my vehicle into the dealer twice for the airbags. Please direct ford to get both replacement inflators into stock immediately so that i can get my vehicle fixed once and for all. Three years is far too long to wait! What is the holdup!?

Takata recall. On two occasions i asked ford to indicate whether or not the side air bags installed in my mustang were supplied by takata and if so would they be recalled. On both occasions ford sidestepped my request and refused to answer my questions directly. I believe ford is being dishonest, only trying to limit their liability, at my safety and expense. Note: ford has recalled both the frontal air bags but has…

Takata recall - the driver's side airbag was serviced, but the passenger side is original. I have been unable to use the passenger-side front seat of my car for nearly a year because i don't want my passengers sitting near the defective airbag.
