    Takata recall - notified in spring of 2015, notified again in spring of 2016. Still no resolution! Car owners effected by this recall are advised to not drive until the issue is fixed as drivers/passengers may suffer critical injuries or loss of life due to the shrapnel from an air bag deployment. This is ridiculous. We're coming upon two years since initial official notification and the problem was known before…

    I have always had my 2013 ford mustang serviced by licensed ford dealers. It has always had regular maintenance. On two occasions, i brought the recall to the attention of the ford service dept. However ford has never attempted to fix the problem. In fact, ford has never even notified me of the pending recall - even when i have had ford service perform maintenance on the car. Ford is ignoring the recall and…

    On february 24, 2013, i was involved in a "fender bender" in my brand new 2013 ford mustang where i was traveling approximately 15 mph. Although the collision was minor, and the damage to the front end was minimal, the airbags deployed. The driver's side front and side panel airbags both deployed. The front air bag severely burned me when it exploded out upon impact. I have photographs of the burns that i have…

    Takata recall. My mustang is a 2013 and since moving from minnesota to florida i am now in a high humidity state and the risk has increased significantly that it may explode. I have contacted my ford dealer many times and they keep saying ford company is not providing air bags in a timely manner. I feel ford should supply a replacement vehicle to me until my mustang can be fixed.
