    Takata recall why doesn't ntsb, ford,takata, somebody, give us some sort of projected date when parts may be available for this recall. We got a letter in july 2015 stating car needed attention and we would be notified when parts were in and repairs could be done. I know a mazda owner whose car has been called in 3 times for this work. Yet ford only says they don't have parts. Why not disarm the air bad as an intrim…

    Takata recall i was notified last year that my car was recalled. Ford still does not have parts to fix or a plan to fix. This car is just sitting because i will not allow my children do drive a car that has been recalled for airbags that could cause death. How long does ford have to repair? I have to pay insurance, personal property tax on a car we won't use. People also do not want to purchase my car because it has…

    Takata recall i am just writing to complain that almost a year after we were first notified that our mustang was included in this recall that not only has it not yet been rectified but that ford still cannot give any kind of an eta as to when this might happen. It is unacceptable that my wife puts her life at risk every time she gets behind the wheel of her car and almost a year later they still cannot tell us when…

    Why is it that new cars have airbags not involved in recall, but those of us driving with the defective airbags cannot get ours replaced? Because you are not forcing the auto industry to do it! Auto makers would much rather pay out to individual physically maimed or killed per lawsuit, than to pay the millions to replace defective airbags. Shameful on your part!!

    I have asked the ford dealership if there was a recall on my car because i received a letter some time ago and they deny that there is a recall. No attempt has been made to remedy this problem. I really would like to get this rectified before an accident happens.

    Takata recall - in early november 2015 i was driving my 2012 ford mustang when i experienced a minor fender bender, less that 10 mph. Surprisingly, the airbags deployed causing my passenger, a young boy with a stomach bag and other illnesses to have to get checked in the hospital. Thank god he was not injured but he was very shaken up for many days because of his autism. The car was towed to bodyart collision center…

    There is a recall on airbags and my 2 local dealers are not capable to make the repairs of this very dangerous condition. The dealers are stating that ford has failed to supply the safe airbag correction which makes ford's negligence about caring for the consumers a questionable situation. To ford,.. You have a legal and moral responsibility to your customers!!! Jwf 2012 ford mustang.

    This recall has been in force for months and nobody seems to be doing anything to fix these cars. I am afraid every time i drive my car and i am angry that ford is not acting on this. I want to be as safe as i can in my car! No accident, but i fear one.

    Has been 60 days since recall reported and no remedy has been provided. Calls to dealer and ford motor company bring no resolution or commitment to resolve. Spoke to a dealer about trading in and they did not want the car until the recall was fixed. At the 60 day mark, no resolution has been reached. What recourse do i have with ford to make the repairs.

    I received a safety recall for my ford mustang 2012 stating there is an airbag defect. I am afraid to drive the car though it has less than 7000 miles because of the number of injuries of deaths associated with the takata airbag.
