My question is I’m getting ready to buy a 2007 Ford edge for my mother and she’s already put three water pumps on this car and it cost like almost 1000 bucks to do it every time. I don’t even know if it’s worth it but I was just wondering if there’s any recalls on something like that or if it’s something wrong with why it keeps going keeps messing up

While driving the air bag symbol and wrench appears on the dash, car starts losing power, and when shifting gears there's a hard shift and clunking noise. Videos on YouTube show many people with the same issue some say it's a sensor issue. Output Shaft speed sensor and turbine speed sensor

I am complaining that Recall # 21S12 has been unresolved for years now. They have replaced the passenger airbag, but not the Driver side. This is a serious issue and not addressing it in a timely matter puts me and my families safety at risk. In the case of the passenger Airbag, I was offered a loaner vehicle. Now with the Drivers side Airbag recall, I have not been offered the same measure of safety. Thank You, Sincerely, Floyd Baker

There has been a recall on the airbags. I have been calling for three months trying to get the airbags done and inspected. I have called four different dealerships and they are all giving me a hard time saying that they do not have the parts in stock and that it could "take months" to get the airbag ordered and in if they are even willing to do this. One mechanic told me that it was not that big of a deal. I do not feel safe like this and I want the airbag replaced. I am going around in circled with this and Ford will not help me. I have called Ford corprate to no avail. I am very upset about this and am asking that they fix this problem. The tire keeps going flat as well due to a defect with their rims/tires. There was also an issue where the engine can catch fire however, the people from Ford do not seem to care. They do not have to drive this car, I do and I need to feel safe. This is a serious accident waiting to happen. I want these items to get fixed and not have people deny all of this. This is an open recall and they are giving me a hard time. I need help. I have been calling for four months now and cannot get help. Please help me fix this so I do not get injured in this car as well as any passangers, etc. Thank you.

TAKATA INFLATORS, FORD RECALL 16S26. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THIS RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. THE DEALER, AND FORD TELL ME DIFFERENT STORIES. FORD PROMISED A PAID FOR RENTAL IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING, THE DEAL SAID NO TO A RENTAL OR A LOANER. I HAVE BEEN ON A "WAITING LIST" FOR PARTS FOR ALMOST A YEAR, AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS. I RECEIVE NO COMMUNICATION FROM THE DEALER EXCEPT IF I CALL TO CHECK. SOMETIMES I AM TOLD I AM NOT ON THE LIST, OTHER TIMES, THERE ARE NO PARTS, ALL TIMES NO RENTAL COVERAGE OR LOANERS AVAILABLE. I LUCKILY HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT, BUT I AM SO FRUSTRATED WITH THE DEALER AND FORD I AM READY TO GET RID OF THE CAR AND GET A DIFFERENT BRAND. THEY DO NOT SEEM TO CARE ABOUT SAFETY OR COMMUNICATION. IT IS TERRIFYING TO GET A RECALL FROM FORD SAYING NOT TO DRIVE YOUR CAR DUE TO LIFE THREATENING SAFETY RECALL, BUT THE DEALER SAYS IT ISN'T A BIG DEAL. WHO DO YOU BELIEVE, BUT I AM NO LONGER FEELING LIKE I SHOULD BE PATIENT OR GIVE THEM THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. I AM LOOKING FOR ALTERNATIVES TO THIS ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL: WE HAVE RECEIVED LETTERS FROM THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY FOR MORE THAN A YEAR NOW ABOUT THIS SAFETY RECALL ON THE TAKATA AIR BAGS, BUT HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY OUR LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP EACH TIME WE HAVE PHONED THAT THEY STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED PARTS IN OUR REGION. THE LAST LETTER WE RECEIVED FROM FORD WAS JUST THIS NOVEMBER 2018, AND THE LAST CALL I MADE TO LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIPS WAS TODAY (12/6/18). THE DEALERSHIP (DAVE SMITH FORD) CLAIMS TO NOT KNOW WHEN PARTS WILL ARRIVE, BUT HAS STATED THAT THEY WILL CALL US WHEN THEY RECEIVE PARTS. THIS HAS BEEN AN INORDINATE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THIS RECALL WORK TO OCCUR, AND WE HAVE RECEIVED NO GOOD EXPLANATION, ONLY MORE LETTERS FROM FORD TELLING US TO TAKE ACTION. WE CANNOT DO SO WITHOUT THE DEALERSHIP GETTING PARTS!
