I CALL THE FORD REPAIR OFFICE EVERY FEW MONTHS AND AM ALWAYS TOLD THAT THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT PART IS OUT OF STOCK. NO AIRBAG INCIDENT YET.

TAKATA RECALL - IT'S BEEN NEARLY 2 YEARS SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED AND I STILL DON'T HAVE A REPLACEMENT PART FOR MY VEHICLE. FORD DOESN'T SEEM TO BE TAKING THIS SAFETY RECALL VERY SERIOUSL.
(TAKATA RECALL). THEY RECOMMEND YOU DO NOT HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT SEAT OF THIS VEHICLE DUE TO ACTIVE RECALL OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THIS RECALL WAS IN 2017. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THIS ISSUE AS OF TODAY. IT IS NOT REASONABLE FOR ONE TO NOT BE ABLE TO HAVE A A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT OF A VEHICLE FOR OVER A YEAR. THEY HAVE NOT MET THE DUTY OR STANDARD OF CARE OWED TO THEIR VEHICLE OWNERS. THEY HAVE NOT PREFORMED HOW A REASONABLE PERSON WOULD AND MAY BE NEGLIGENT IN THEIR DUTIES WHETHER UNINTENTIONAL OR NOT. THEIR IS AN IMPLIED DANGER THAT HAS BEEN CREATED AND NEEDED TO BE FIXED. I AM AWARE OF THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, BUT THIS IS ONLY FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS TAKEN THEIR VEHICLE AND HAD IT FIXED. WHAT ABOUT THOSE WHO ARE AT RISK FOR INJURY DUE TO THIS DEFECT AND THE RECALL THEY HAVE OFFERED NO FIX FOR FOR.TO DATE.

TAKATA RECALL- AFTER PURCHASING MY VEHICLE I FOUND OUT THAT THE CAR WAS IN A FEW PREVIOUS ACCIDENTS WHERE THE AIR BAGS WERE DEPLOYED. ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, WHICH IS THE RECALLED SIDE, I AM WORRIED ABOUT IT EXPLODING AS MY RECALL STATED. MY RECALL ALSO STATED THAT BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVERS AIRBAGS , WHEN DEPLOYED, CAN DEPLOY WITH SHARDS OF METAL AND GLASS FRAGMENTS. I AM A SHORT PERSON GENERALLY AND SIT CLOSE TO THE WHEEL SO I CAN REACH EVERYTHING. I ALSO HAVE MANY NIECES AND NEPHEWS WHO RIDE IN MY VEHICLE AND I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY .IT HAS BEEN A WHILE NOW AND I HAVE BEEN CALLING AND HEARD NOTHING ABOUT A SOLUTION FOR IT AND IM WONDERING IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO , ASIDE FROM GETTING A NEW VEHICLE , THAT CAN HELP KEEP MY FAMILY AND I SAFE. AS WELL AS, HOW BIG OF AN IMPACT MY CAR CAN TAKE BEFORE THAT THING EXPLODES ON ME.
