Sterling mccall ford only replaced my driver's side airbag on march 28, 2018. They were to contact me regarding my passenger side airbag but haven't done so. The airbag recall group contacted me to set an appointment, which i did for august 17, 2018 but then seemingly knew nothing about it when i called to confirm. They wanted me to drive 50 miles to another dealer for a chance to replace it.

Takata recall - ford has sent a letter stating that the passenger seat may not be used until further notice. It is difficult to see this letter as anything other than a disingenuous attempt to shift their liability to the owner especially as their website as of today is in conflict with the letter stating, 'your vehicle is affected by a takata airbags recall.

I don't understand why the recall does not have a remedy for it when other…
