Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have been trying for three months to get my local Ford dealership (freedom Ford of morgantown) to cooperate with me to get this safety recall done. It's apparent they would rather make money instead of fixing recalls. My vehicle does not see rain or snow.”
NHTSA complaint #11233787, filed 2019-07, 27,000 miles“Takata recall it has taken too long to replace these airbags and with the idea that in the event of an accident the airbag could cause shards to penetrate the driver or passenger, I am fearful of driving my vehicle. It has taken too long to replace the airbags and there is no solution in sight.”
NHTSA complaint #10910930, filed 2016-10, 16,660 miles“Takata recall . Ford refuses to fix, replace or buy-back my 2014 Mustang after 6 months of making payments and being unable to use the vehicle for its intended purposes. In a conversation with the dealer, they said to call Ford and I did today only to be told, in spite of federal law. They won't help. Can you?”
NHTSA complaint #10811599, filed 2015-12, 23,000 miles“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?”
NHTSA complaint #10809041, filed 2015-12, 24,000 miles“Takata recall I was in an accident in may on a city street in motion, my airbag deployed. The air bag deployed on impact but I was only going 18 miles per hour.my car has been in the shop since the wreck waiting on an airbag park. Its completely unfair that the car not be totaled and it has been sitting in a lot for 6 months. Ford has been zero help, all I hear is the air bag is delayed and we don't have a date.”
