Front air bag may rupture and deploy metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death. I don't feel safe driving my car. I contacted ford and expressed my concern and they said it was okay to drive. I asked for loaner or a rental until ford got parts to fix problem and they said no. I'm very unhappy about the way ford is handling this.

Takata air bag has been recalled. We were told this would be remedied by fall of 2015, and when we ask the dealership when the airbag will be replaced we are told they have no idea and not to worry, that the car is still safe to drive. Safety recall notice 15s21/nhtsa recall 15v-319. We are concerned that the car is not safe and would like to know when the air bag will in fact be replaced.
