Takata recall - almost a year later, and still no parts? Is ford dragging their feet, hoping most of these vehicles are off the road and then they only have to retrofit a small percentage? In the meantime, i'm driving around with a bomb in front of my face?

Takata recall. I received a recall notice a year ago about the airbag being defective and is recalled. I have called repeatedly to the dealership where car was purchased and they said the parts to fix it are not available but will notify me when they are. In light of several deaths due to these airbags i need it repaired. May not purchase with ford again. They are irresponsible about airbag repair..

Takata airbag. I am trying to understand why it has taken over year between the notification from ford and the estimated time of repair. Ford has indicated our car will be repaired sometime in the july timeframe. Why have other car manufacturers seemed to have moved much quicker in obtaining parts and are further along with repairs?

He stepped on the brake and pulled the emergency brake but the car would not slow down or stop. He rammed into a weight machine and cabinet in the garage which stopped the car. The car was put into park but the engine was still revving. There was front end damage across…

The vehicle is only 2 years old and the airbags light is flashing per the ford dealer the airbags are not operational. Ford indicates this is not covered under warranty due to the car being 6000 miles out of warranty so if i am involved in a crash i will not be protected by the airbags, after reading online complaints this appears to be a common occurrence on 2007 to 2011 mustangs. *tr
