TAKATA RECALL - IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR SINCE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED. THEY ISSUED INTERIM REPAIR FOR OLDER VEHICLES BUT NOT MINE. I DON'T ESPECIALLY FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND FORD CAN'T REPAIR BECAUSE OF A PARTS ISSUE. FORD SHOULD GIVE EVERYONE AN INTERIM REPAIR. CAN'T YOU AUTHORIZED FORD TO TURN OFF THE AIRBAG UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED? THE COMMENT ABOUT HIGH HUMIDITY IS NOT FAIR. SOMEONE COULD RUN INTO ME AND THE DEVICE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO SAVE ME IS GOING TO KILL ME. PLEASE CONTACT FORD AND GET THEM MOVING ON THIS RECALL. MY CAR IS USELESS, I CAN'T TRADE IT IN EITHER BECAUSE OF THE RECALL. AND I CAN'T MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET IT FIXED!!
TAKATA RECALL OR ANY DEFECTIVE AIRBAG ISSUES. I RENTED A CAR FROM A SMALL INDEPENDENT CAR RENTAL AGENCY NEAR A MAJOR AIRPORT IN THE USA. I WAS IN SLOW MOVING TRAFFIC ON A HIGHWAY AND HAD TO BRAKE HARD FOR TRAFFIC WHICH HAD STOPPED. I COLLIDED WITH NOTHING. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED, EXPLODED AND SHATTERED AS IT DEPLOYED, BURST INTO FLAMES AND A PIECE OF THE AIRBAG LANDED ON MY ARM BURNING ME AND LEAVING A SCAR. THE DETONATOR O THE STEERING REMAINED IN FLAMES FOR SEVERAL MINUTES SMELLING OF GUNPOWDER. RESEARCHING THIS CAR RENTAL COMPANY ONLINE LATER, THERE APPEARS TO BE A PATTERN - CARS RENTED FROM THIS COMPANY AT VERY LOW RATES WHICH ARE CLAIMED TO BE DAMAGED WHEN RETURNED AND THEN BILLING THE CAR RENTER'S INSURANCE COMPANY AND USING A REPAIR SHOP THAT SEEMS TO BE DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE OWNER OF THE CAR RENTAL COMPANY.ALSO, THE CLAIMS COMPANY THE CAR RENTAL USES SEEMS VERY INVOLVED IN THIS POTENTIAL SIDE INDUSTRY AS WELL. BECAUSE THEIR RENTAL RATES ARE SO LOW, THIS HAS MADE ME SUSPICIOUS. THE CARS THEY RENT OUT ARE NOT NEW. I HAVE THE VPN NUMBER THAT WAS SUPPLIED TO THE BODY SHOP FOR THE REPAIR BUT HAVE CONCERNS THE VPN MAY NOT BE CORRECT EITHER. WHAT I DO HAVE IS A PIECE OF FABRIC FROM THE AIRBAG. I WAS HOPING TO BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE AIRBAG THAT BURNED ME AND BE SURE THAT IT IS NOT EITHER A TAKATA AIRBAG OR SOME GENERIC BRAND X AIRBAG THAT WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN IN THIS MODEL CAR. I WILL ATTACH A PHOTO OF THE FABRIC. IF THERE IS SOMEONE I COULD SEND A SAMPLE OF THE FABRIC TO, I

TAKATA RECALL. I PURCHASED THIS CAR USED APPROX A YEAR AGO. I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM FORD JULY 2015. THERE IS STILL NO PLACE THAT CAN MAKE THESE REPAIRS DUE TO NOT HAVING THE PARTS. I FOUND OUT YESTERDAY THAT THESE CARS WITH THIS RECALL WERE NOT TO BE RESOLD. I WENT TO CHECK ABOUT TRADING MY CAR IN JUST TO UPGRADE TO A NEWER YEAR WHEN I WAS INFORMED THAT THE CARS CANNOT BE RESOLD. THE TRADE VALUE WAS A JOKE AND I DO BELIEVE THAT THE RECALL HAS ALOT TO DO WITH THAT. I AM VERY UPSET THAT I AM DRIVING A CAR WITH MY CHILD IN IT THAT HAS THIS AIRBAG ISSUE. I CALLED THE NUMBER ON THE LETTER WHEN I RECEIVED IT AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AND THAT WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE I WOULD BE INFORMED. WELL STILL NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE AND I KEEP GETTING TOLD THERE AREN'T ANY PARTS YET. SO WHAT DO I DO I PURCHASED A 28000.00 CAR THAT IS WORTH NOTHING FOR A TRADE AND IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I FEEL LIKE THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED FROM SHOULD DO SOMETHING FOR ME AND FORD SHOULD REPLACE ALL THESE DEFECTIVE VEHICLES. I AM JUST SO UPSET OVER THIS. WHAT CAN I DO NEXT? VEHICLE VIN [XXX].

IT HAS BEEN 6 MONTHS SINCE THE TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL ON MY CAR. THIS CAR HAS BEEN RENDERED USELESS SINCE THE RISK OF DRIVING THIS IS DEATH. WHY DOES THE NTSHA NOT HOLD FORD OR TAKATA RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS? WHY HAS THE GOVERNMENT AGENY HAVE NO TEETH? FORD NOR NTSHA HAS TAKEN ANY INITIATIVE IN GETTING A RESOLUTION FOR THIS. LOOKS LIKE NO SOLUTION IN SIGHT!!!!! I GUESS IT IS CHEAPER TO PAY OFF LAW SUITS THAN FIXING THE OUTSTANDING RECALLS.
TAKATA RECALL IT'S BEEN SIX MONTHS SINCE I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD REGARDING NHTSA RECALL 15V-319, AND I AM STILL WAITING ON THE REPAIRS. MY LOCAL DEALER TELLS ME THEY HAVE RECEIVED NO PARTS FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND HAVE COMPLETED ZERO SERVICE APPOINTMENTS RELATED TO THIS RECALL. THIS IS DESPITE THE FACT THAT I LIVE IN A SOUTHERN GULF COAST STATE, WHICH SHOULD MAKE MY VEHICLE A PRIORITY. IN THE RECALL NOTICE, FORD PLEDGED TO PROVIDE "THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF SERVICE AND SUPPORT." INSTEAD, THEY'VE PROVIDED NO SERVICE AND NO SUPPORT. I'M FORTUNATE THAT I'VE NEVER HAD MY AIRBAG DEPLOY, BUT I'M FRUSTRATED BY THE APPARENT LACK OF ANY FURTHER COMMITMENT FROM FORD TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL. MY COMPLAINT CENTERS AROUND THE FACT THAT FORD IS DRAGGING ITS FEET ABOUT HONORING THE RECALL. FORD HAS PUT US IN A CATCH-22 SITUATION. WE ARE RISKING OUR LIVES EVERY DAY BY DRIVING THIS DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS CAR AND WE CAN'T BUY A NEW CAR BECAUSE DEALERS WON'T TAKE IT IN TRADE. TODAY I VISITED BRANDON FORD, ONE OF THE LARGEST FORD DEALERS IN THE US. I TRIED TO TRADE OUR MUSTANG IN ON A NEW ONE AND THEY WOULDN'T EVEN TALK TO ME. THEY WOULD BE GLAD TO SELL ME A NEW CAR, BUT REFUSED TO TAKE THE TRADE BECAUSE THE RECALL RENDERS IT WORTHLESS. THE SALES GUY SAID THEY CANNOT RESELL THE CAR AND WOULD SEND IT TO THE AUCTION FOR PENNIES ON THE DOLLAR. HE ALSO SAID THAT FORD HAS NO PLANS TO MAKE THE REPAIRS AND THAT ANY DEALER THAT SAYS THEY HAVE A REPAIR SCHEDULE IS LYING. I BESEECH THE NHTSA TO FORCE FORD TO MAKE THE REPAIRS ON OUR CAR NOW OR ELSE DEMAND THAT THEIR DEALERS GIVE US WHAT THE TRUE, FAIR MARKET VALUE WOULD BE IF THE CAR HAD NOT BEEN RECALLED. FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD NOT BE PERMITTED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO "PLAY" ITS CUSTOMERS AND ENDANGER THEIR LIVES. THANK YOU.

"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?

TAKATA INFLATORS WAS NOTIFIED BY FORD IN JULY OF 2015 THAT CAR WAS TO BE RECALLED WHEN I CONTACTED FORD YESTERDAY, THEY SAID THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL FIX THE CAR...MAYBE IN JULY OF 2016 THIS IS DANGEROUS AND UNACCEPTABLE WHAT IS BEING DONE TO PROTECT ME AND GETTING THIS RECALL DONE?
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?
I WAS IN A CAR WRECK RECENTLY AND MY 2014 FORD MUSTANG WAS TOTALED AND MY AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF. I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED CONCIDERING WHAT HAPPENED WITH MY CAR.
AN UNREASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME HAS PASSED SINCE THE NOTICE OF THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL (15S21). I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING MY MUSTANG KNOWING THAT POSSIBLE SHRAPNEL CAN STRIKE ME IN THE EVENT THE AIR BAG IS DEPLOYED, POSSIBLY CAUSING INJURY OR DEATH! I DO WISH THAT FORD WOULD STOP WAITING FOR A FULL INVENTORY OF REPLACEMENTS PARTS AND START REPLACING WHAT THEY CAN AS PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WHICH I FEEL FORD IS NOT TREATING VERY SERIOUSLY. THEY ARE DOING NOTHING TO MAKE THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFE IN THE MEANTIME.

I RECEIVED A LETTER DETAILING "SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 15S21 / NHTSA RECALL 15V-319" IN JULY 2015. THE LETTER STATED THAT I WOULD BE RECEIVING ANOTHER LETTER/NOTICE, WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. TO DATE 11/13/15 I HAVE RECEIVED NOTHING FROM FORD AND HAVE CALLED FMC NA SEVERAL TIMES , WITH NO RESULTS. THIS IS B.S AND MAY PREVENT ME FROM PURCHASING ANOTHER FORD PRODUCT. I GUESS THAT SOMEONE HAS TO BE INJURED AND THEN SUE FORD BEFORE THEY DECIDE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
FORD DEALER WILL NOT TRADE CAR IN FOR 2016 FORD MUSTANG BECAUSE OF THE AIR BAG RECALL PARTS ..

IT STATES WE WILL GET A LETTER WHEN THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE.

WE CALLED ON 7-28-15, 10-3-15 AND 11-4-15 AS WELL AS E-MAILED THE CORPORATE OFFICE TO TRY AND GET ANSWERS. WE DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING OUR CAR AND WANT THEM TO BUY IT BACK AT WHAT WE OWE ON IT SINCE THEY ARE NOT WORKING AT GETTING IT FIXED IN A TIMELY MANNER.

THE CAR CONTAINS A DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIR BAG, FOR WHICH A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. SEVERAL MONTHS AGO I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD STATING THE AIRBAG MUST BE REPLACED. I CONTACTED THE FORD DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAD NO IDEA WHEN THE AIRBAG COULD BE REPLACED. I ASKED IF THEY WOULD GIVE ME A SPECIAL DEAL IN TRADING UP TO A 2015 MUSTANG THAT DOESN'T HAVE THE AIRBAG PROBLEM. THEY SAID NO. I ALSO CONTACTED FORD HQ WHO INDICATED I BASICALLY HAVE TWO OPTIONS AT THIS TIME: NOT DRIVING THE CAR (WHICH HAS ONLY 3100 MILES ON IT) OR DRIVE IT AT THE RISK OF BEING KILLED IF THE AIR BAG EXPLODES. DO I HAVE ANY OTHER RECOURSE?
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.
