    Takata recall, called ford and they said it would be sept or oct 2016 before i can get my airbag replaced. This is ridiculous, hoping not to be in accident for 18 months while waiting for them to get to this.

I would like someone at ford motor company to send the replacements asap, as none of the dealers are providing loaners, and i drive 80 miles…

    The 2012 mustang collided with a large commercial truck. The mustang's brakes were not applied, so there were no skid marks. None of the airbags ever deployed. During this accident, the mustang was traveling the posted speed limit of 40 mph and we believe that the airbags should have deployed. *tr

The dealer told me that the replace parts were not available because they had not been manufactured yet. I went back for service in march 2016, and was told the same thing. If i am maimed, wounded or killed because of this dangerous equipment and negligent process, i hope my family files a huge…

    Vehicle turned right from a stop, onto a texas state highway. Shifting manually from first gear to second gear, the vehicle went out of control (apparently due to loss of traction because there was a coating of fine sand on the tires). The vehicle crossed 3 lanes of traffic, and in doing so, went into a roll-over, reports stating the vehicle rolled 4 times, and striking a utility poll that stopped the roll. The…
