“Takata recall-I was notified by ford by letter dated july 2016 of the safety recall notice 16s26/NHTSA recall 16v-384. No action has been taken to date to repair or replace the air bag. With all the publicity in the media of the potential danger my family now refuses to ride in my vehicle. The ford dealer denied me a loaner car.”
