Takata recall recall title: takata non-desiccated phased stabilized ammonium nitrate (psan) passenger frontal airbag inflators nhtsa recall number: 16v384 almost one year ago my passenger airbag was recalled. It is taking too long for a remedy to become available. If a timely repair is not feasible, takata and ford should provide monetary relief. This delay is unacceptable.

Takata recall my 2009 mustang has a defective passenger seat occupancy sensor. When no one is seated the airbag flashes code 16. When i fasten the belt on that side still unoccupied, the fault code stops, but the center dash lights up indicating passenger airbag is off. My research shows the problem is not unique to my car, and that it has and is an ongoing issue with many cars not just ford. This vehicle is on the…

Ford still has not completed the repairs for passenger side airbag. I do not feel comfortable having a front seat passenger. Why has this not been done? Can i consider it safe to have a front seat passenger. This has been much too long being corrected.

Concerned about recall notification regarding air bag with shrapnel causing injury or death. Requesting to have air bag disconnected in order to drive car, will not use in the meantime until corrected. Will this be allowed to be done by a dealership?

I do not know if this involves a "takata inflator". I received a ford motor company safety recall notice postmarked july 24, 2015 indicating my 2009 mustang was subject to recall for a defective front driver side air bag inflator housing. I heard nothing more from ford so in late september 2015 i telephoned the ford customer service. Customer service told me that there was no action being taken to replace the part…
