“My 2007 Ford Fusion was on recall notice for a year or so but no local dealerships had the new replacement parts and then I got ran off the interstate and hit a tree at around 60mph and the air bags deployed and shrapnel went everywhere and cut my face and neck up good.

“'takata recall' I have been in contact with both my local Ford dealership and Ford corporate several times since I received notice of the parts being available for recall 19v-001 and 16v-384 but they have mot fixed my vehicle. I first contacted Ford in october 2018. This is a dangerous situation and if they are not willing to fix my car I would like compensated for its value”

“Takata recall I was first notified of the airbag recall in march of 2017. I find it hard to believe that parts are still not available. When will the airbag issue be addressed by Ford? Once this and the likely ABS recall are addressed, if ever, I would like to sell my vehicle, but cannot do so in the mean time because I do not want someone to get injured or killed.”

“Takata recall. I received recall notice on the airbags in july 2016 stating that I would be contacted when parts became available. I have received no further communication so I contacted the local Ford dealer in december 2016. The dealer told me parts would not be available until sometime in 2017; possibly the second or third quarter of 2017”

“Safety recall notice was received on june 2018 and there has been no follow up in regards to the recall safety notice being reconciled. I have not been notified when the parts will become available for the airbag recall repair. I have not been contacted in regards to schedule my repair. I am concerned for the safety of my passengers if this is not resolved in a timely manner.”
