    The car contains a defective takata air bag, for which a recall has been issued. Several months ago i received a letter from ford stating the airbag must be replaced. I contacted the ford dealer where i purchased the car, and they told me they had no idea when the airbag could be replaced. I asked if they would give me a special deal in trading up to a 2015 mustang that doesn't have the airbag problem. They said no.…

    Takata recall-does anyone have any idea how long we are supposed to wait to have our airbags replaced? My car will be 2 years old in october and i am just keeping my fingers crossed that i do not have an accident that deploys the defective airbags-this is ridiculous and could be a serious safety concern. Thank you for any information that you can provide to me as to when i might expect to actually have my airbags…

    Takata recall - this 2014 mustang has approximately 22700 miles and has been subject to the takata airbag recall for approximately two years. Though ford has notified me that airbags are available, i cannot get a dealer (i've been to two) to install the airbag. Additionally, the car has an electrical fault in the engine management system that has been noted since the car had 5000 miles on it. Despite more than five…

    Takata recall- ford taking to long to replace. 18 months so far. I believe ford's emphasis is on new car sales and they are diverting "safer inflators" to new car production ahead of repairs. I further believe nhtsa is helping ford and other automakers get away with "choosing" an unrealistic option that only hurts consumers and benefits manufacturers like ford. For 18 months - i've suffered loss of use and loss of…

    Takata recall - the dealer has no parts to fix my car. The recall has been in effect for over a year now. This is a known issue that can kill someone if the air bags inflate. If i cannot get my car repaired then why can't the dealership be forced to replace it or buy it back? What is my recourse? The u.s. Goverment collected millions in fines from takata. Where is the justice for the consumer?

    I received a recall notice from ford in july of this year concerning defected air bag deployment on driver side. It is now the middle of september and no further actions have been taken. Am i to wait until an accident occurs before repairs are made, or can something be done to speed up this recall/repair process?
