    Takara inflators: my complaint is that i am having a difficult time getting my local ford dealership to take care of the recall because i did not buy the car from them. I have been on a waiting list for over a year. I called again yesterday and had to put my name on the list again! I was told they had to order the parts and he could not give me an approximate idea of how long this would take.

    Takata recall. Ford has yet to fix my passenger side airbag. They predict they "might have" replacement parts in the spring of 2018 but the letter received only states select vehicles.
