TAKATA RECALL, IT HAS BEEN 10 MONTHS NOW AND THE FORD DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME THAT THERE IS NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX MY CAR, SO I AM DRIVING AROUND IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE WHAT IS THE SENSE OF HAVING A RECALL IF YOU CAN'T FIX MY VEHICLE WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THIS? PLEASE HELP
TAKATA RECALL. I'VE CONTACTED FORD AND THEY HAVE BEEN UNHELPFUL IN GETTING MY AIRBAG REPLACED NOR WILL THEY PROVIDE A RENTAL CAR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR REGARDLESS OF HUMIDITY FACTORS. PLEASE HELP ME GET MY CAR AIRBAG REPAIRED. THANK YOU *TR
MY MUSTANG IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD, MINT CONDITION, ONLY 21,800 MILES ON IT CURRENTLY. PAINT IS BUBBLING ON THE HOOD, ABOUT TO START PEELING OFF. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS TODAY, I'VE LEARNED THAT THIS IS APPARENTLY A PROBLEM ON MULTIPLE FORD MODELS, INCLUDING AND BEYOND THE MUSTANG, AND SPANNING MANY MODEL YEARS. I UNDERSTAND THAT FORD IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND HAS ISSUED AT LEAST ONE TSB ON IT, IF NOT MORE, YET CONTINUES TO KNOWINGLY SELL THESE VEHICLES WITH DEFECTIVE PAINT JOBS ON THEM, CAUSING THEIR CUSTOMERS FINANCIAL LOSS IN HAVING TO REPAINT THE VEHICLE IN AS FEW AS 3 YEARS AFTER PURCHASING. DUE TO THE CORROSIVE NATURE, THIS IS AN EXTRAORDINARILY INTRICATE PROCESS TO REPAINT THESE AND REQUIRES SPECIAL PROCESSES AND FORD IS REFUSING TO FIX THESE VEHICLES EVEN THOUGH THEY CREATED THE PROBLEM. IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS ONE LAWSUIT IN PROGRESS BUT IT ONLY GOES UP TO 2007 MODELS I THINK, BUT APPARENTLY THERE ARE MANY VEHICLES BEYOND THAT YEAR THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I READ "FORD USED ALUMINUM HOODS BUT FAILED TO PROPERLY INSULATE THEM FROM PRIOR MODEL YEAR IRON-BASED CONNECTING AND SUPPORTING PARTS, DESPITE KNOWING THAT WOULD GIVE RISE TO GALVANIC COUPLING AND CORROSION" FOR A MORE TECHNICAL ANSWER. ALSO I FOUND "WHAT IS INTERESTING TO NOTE ABOUT THIS ISSUE IS THAT FORD ACTUALLY WROTE A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) AND SENT IT OUT TO ALL OF ITS DEALERS IN 2004 OUTLINING THE ISSUES WITH THE HOODS AND HOW TO REPAIR THEM PROPERLY, EVEN THOUGH THEY DENY ALL WRONG DOING OR THA
TAKADA RECALL I RECEIVED A LETTER OF RECALL IN JULY 2016. MY CAR HAS BEEN GARAGED SINCE. THERE STILL IS NO RESPONSE ON WHEN THIS REPAIR WILL BE MADE AND FRANKLY I'M SICK OF PAYING INSURANCEL ON AN UNSAFE VEHICLE. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT FORD'S PROBLEM IS AS I CAN GET NO ANSWERS FROM THEM.
TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE 15S21 IN JULY 2015 ASKED TO WAIT FOR SECOND LETTER TO INFORM THAT PARTS AVAILABLE AND TO CONTACT DEALER TO SCHEDULE A REPAIR HAVE HEARD NOTHING AS I AM IN FLORIDA (ONE OF THE HIGH PRIORITY AREAS), I HAVE REGULARLY CONTACTED MY DEALER FOR ADVICE ON PROGRESS WITH OBTAINING PARTS EACH TIME, INCLUDING TODAY, I AM DISMISSED AS NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE WHAT SHOULD I DO? MY CAR IS POTENTIALLY UNSAFE, AND, POSSIBLY, DEVALUED PRIOR TO THIS RECALL BEING CORRECTED I AM ASSURED OF THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF SERVICE AND SUPPORT BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY, HOWEVER, I AM NOT IN RECEIPT OF ANYTHING LIKE THAT HAVE OTHER FLORIDA FORD VEHICLES BEEN REPAIRED AND I JUST ONE OR ONE OF MANY WAITING FOR ACTION?
TAKATA RECALL: FORD NOTIFY ME A YEAR AGO OF TIS RECALL. IN A RECENT CALL TO FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE I WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IN ITS PRESENT CONDITION.
TAKATA RECALL. I WAS REVIEWING MY CAR FAX REPORT IN JANUARY & NOTICED THE 15S21 RECALL. SINCE THEN, THERE HAS BEEN A POPPING SOUND COMING FROM THE CENTER INSTRUMENT AREA EVERY TIME I START THE VEHICLE. IT STOPS AFTER A FEW REPETITIONS. I HAVE VISITED MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP & WAS TOLD THAT REMEDIES ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AS IT IS MY PRIMARY & I CONSTANTLY TRAVEL ON THE HIGHWAY. WHAT OPTIONS DO I HAVE FOR REPAIRS OR TO OBTAIN A LOANER VEHICLE UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS FIXED?
TAKATA RECALL - WHY CAN'T FORD GIVE US INFORMATION ON WHEN MY DAUGHTERS AIRBAG CAN BE REPLACED? THIS SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN GOING ON FOR QUITE AWHILE.
TAMARA RECALL. IT HAD BEEN ALMOST A YEAR AND THERE AREN'T ANY AVAILABLE. I DO NOT WANT TO BE KILLED BY SHRAPNEL!
TAKATA RECALL LETTER SENT TO ME FROM FORD DATED JULY 2015. HAVE CALLED FORD THEY SAID CALL LOCAL DEALER, CALLED LOCAL DEALER TWICE SINCE JULY 2015 AND AM TOLD THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR. HOW LONG ARE WE SUPPOSED TO WAIT, DO WE NEED TO FILE ANOTHER LAWSUIT TO GET THESE COMPANIES TO DO THE RIGHT THING? WHAT ON EARTH IS TAKING SO LONG? CAN NOT AFFORD TO BUY ANOTHER CAR IS THIS ONE SAFE TO OWN AND DRIVE?
I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2015 FROM FORD REGARDING SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 15S21/ NHTSA RECALL 15V-319 AND WAS TOLD I WOULD RECEIVE A NOTICE FROM FORD WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE SO I COULD SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE A NOTICE THAT THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE.
TAKATA RECALL OUR FORD DEALER HAS INFORMED US THAT PARTS WON'T BE AVAILABLE FOR THIS RECALL UNTIL FALL 2016 AT THE EARLIEST.
TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED WRITTEN NOTICE OF THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL IN JULY OF 2015 FOR THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG. ACCORDING TO THE WRITTEN NOTICE, NO ACTION WAS REQUIRED ON MY PART AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE. IN MARCH OF 2016, I RECEIVED WRITTEN NOTICE THAT MY SUBARU ALSO HAD A TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL FOR THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AIRBAG. THE WRITTEN NOTICE SAID NO ONE SHOULD USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED. CURIOUSLY, NO SUCH WARNING WAS GIVEN FOR MY FORD MUSTANG. I ASSUME IT IS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE TO BE PARKED UNTIL IT WAS FIXED. IT IS NOW APRIL 2016, I E-MAILED FORD YESTERDAY AS I HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOTICE THAT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO FIX MY VEHICLE. FORD RESPONDED THAT THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE 9 MONTHS LATER!!! HOWEVER, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IN MY SUBARU WAS FIXED YESTERDAY. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE 9 MONTHS LATER. I DO NOT HAVE THE LUXURY OF SIDELINING MY FORD MUSTANG UNTIL THE PARTS ARE RECEIVED AS MY WIFE USES THE SUBARU DAILY SO I'M DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT MAY KILL ME IF I'M INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. DOES THIS MEAN ANYTHING TO ANYONE OR AM I WASTING MY TIME WRITING THIS?
I JUST BOUGHT MY 2010 MUSTANG, A CAR I'VE WANTED FOR WELL OVER A DECADE AND NOTICED THE BUBBLING ON THE HOOD. I FIGURED THIS WOULD BE SOMETHING I COULD JUST TAKE TO A BODY SHOP AND HAVE FIXED FOR A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS, BUT AFTER READING UP ON THIS ISSUE, IT IS NOT FROM RUST, IT IS FROM THE ALUMINUM HOOD BEING CONTAMINATED BEFORE FORD PAINTED IT, AND IF I REPAINT THE ISSUE WILL JUST COME BACK. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS, BECAUSE I WANT MY HOOD FIXED SO I CAN BE PROUD OF MY NEW PURCHASE WITHOUT IT LOOKING LIKE A RUST BUCKET!
TAKATA RECALL. THIS RECALL WAS FROM MAY 2015. I LIVE IN AN AREA WHERE THERE IS EXTREME HIGH HUMIDITY. THIS SHOULD NOT TAKE THIS LONG TO REMEDY. FORD SHOULD BE PROVIDING ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION UNTIL THIS IS REMEDIED.
TAKATA RECALL, I KNOW THIS VEHICLE WAS SOLD TO A WHOLESALER AND THE WHOLESALER HAS IT FOR SALE WITH THE RECALL NOT BEING TAKEN CARE OF BECAUSE THE PARTS ARE UNAVAILABLE. I TRADED VEHICLE IN AND THEN WANTED TO BUY IT BACK FROM HENDRICK AUTO IN BIRMINGHAM, AL. THEY SOLD THE 2010 FORD MUSTANG TO DUNN'S WHOLESALE IN TUSCALOOSA, AL AND THE VEHICLE WITH AN OPEN SAFETY RECALL IS BEING SOLD ON THEIR LOT!! I CAN'T BUY IT BECAUSE OF THE RECALL, BUT THE WHOLESALER CAN SELL IT WITH A RECALL ON IT??

TAKATA RECALL. I AM JUST HORRIFIED THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE FOR 6 YEARS NOT KNOWING I COULD BE IN DANGER FOR THOSE METAL PIECES THAT ARE RELEASED IN CASE OF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYING. I HAVE HAD ACCIDENTS BEFORE AND JUST THE THOUGHT OF THAT MAKES ME NOT WANT TO DRIVE DAILY WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE. I KNOW THEY ARE TRYING TO DO THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BUT HOW MUCH LONGER A PERSON CAN TAKE THEIR CHANCES? THIS IS ABSURD! THEY SHOULD AT LEAST DISABLE THE AIRBAGS OR TRY FIXING THE CARS THAT THE PROBLEM HAPPENS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE (AS IN MY CASE) I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, THEY JUST TELL US TO WAIT AND IN THE MEANTIME WE'RE AT THE "UNIVERSE'S MERCY" OR LUCK OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE, MAINLY IF YOU ARE DRIVING DAILY AND TAKING ROADS. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT IS THE SOLUTION BECAUSE TIME IS TICKING.

TAKATA RECALL I AM AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT TO DO REGARDING MY VEHICLE'S DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIR BAGS. MY VEHICLE IS A 2010 MUSTANG. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE AND ALSO FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND GET THE SAME RESPONSE FROM ALL - THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS TO REPLACE MY DEFECTIVE AIR BAGS. HOW MUCH LONGER DO I HAVE TO WAIT? I LIVE IN THE HUMID MIDWEST ST. LOUIS AREA AND MY CAR HAS BEEN SITTING IN MY GARAGE SINCE LAST MAY WHEN I RECEIVED THE NOTICE OF THE RECALL BECAUSE I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT FOR FEAR OF BEING KILLED BY MY DEFECTIVE AIR BAG SHOULD I HAVE AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. WHY CAN'T WE FORCE TAKATA TO PAY FOR A COMPANY IN THE UNITED STATES TO MANUFACTURE AIR BAGS THAT DON'T EXPLODE AND SEND SHARP METAL FRAGMENTS FLYING AT THE CARS' OCCUPANTS? AND NOW I'M LEARNING TAKATA MANIPULATED AND ALTERED TESTING DATA EVEN AFTER THE RECALLS BEGAN AND DEATHS HAD OCCURRED. SIMPLY SHAMEFUL AND UNACCEPTABLE. U.S. VEHICLE OWNERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO TRUST THEIR VEHICLES ARE SAFE AND WHEN/IF A PROBLEM THAT COULD RESULT IN DEATH IS DISCOVERED, THAT PROBLEM SHOULD BE REMEDIED IN A TIMELY MANNER. I HAVE SIGNED UP FOR YOUR EMAILS WITH NEWS OF ANY UPDATES ON THE TAKATA AIR BAGS BUT ALL THE NEWS I'M RECEIVING IS DISHEARTENING BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE NOTHING IS BEING DONE. I KNOW THERE ARE A LOT OF VEHICLES ON THIS RECALL BUT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT ONE - MINE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ANY ASSISTANCE YOU CAN PROVIDE. *TR

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
