“Takata recall I was contacted in july 2016 about a recall involving my takata airbags. To date I have not been provided any more information in reference to when the parts will be available and its been well over a year. I have since been notified the company has filled for bankruptcy. So I'm trying to find out where this leaves me?”

NHTSA complaint #11045166, filed 2017-11, 45,000 miles

“My vehicle has been recalled as part of the safety recall notice 17s01 / NHTSA recall 17v-024. The dealers have no parts to remedy this defect and don't know when they will have parts. The deadline for a fix was december 31, 2017. I am concerned that the airbag supplier has filed bankruptcy - I think the auto maker should still be responsible for fixing the defect immediately.”

NHTSA complaint #11048453, filed 2017-11, 190,000 miles

“Takata recall - I received notice in june 2016 and have not received a fix to the airbag problem. The Lincoln garage in newport news says they can do nothing because they haven't received the part. I am concerned and would like to get the airbag fixed because we have a down syndrome granddaughter in the family.”

NHTSA complaint #10983899, filed 2017-05, 93,000 miles

“Takata recall I received a letter in july of 2016 regarding this recall and to this day all I'm getting from ford is parts are not available. Is there a time frame for this recall? What can I do about this because it has taken so long for them to supply the parts?”
