Takata recall. This vehicle recall was issued in may 2015. That is over 18 months ago with still no resolution to this problem. Every time i ask ford about this recall, they reply that parts are not yet available. I am apprehensive to operate this vehicle with an airbag that could potentially cause a fatality.
