2009 Ford Ranger complaints

TAKATA RECALL I OWN A 2009 FORD RANGER. AROUND JUNE 2016 I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE TAKATA AIRBAG HAS BEEN RECALLED AND FORD WILL REPLACE IT. I CHECKED THEIR WEBSITE CONTINUALLY TO GET THE LATEST UPDATE AND NOTHING HAD CHANGED. IN DECEMBER 2017, I RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT THE AIRBAG MAY RUPTURE DURING DEPLOYMENT SO IT IS ADVISED THAT NO ONE BE ALLOWED TO SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE AIRBAG HAS BEEN REPLACED. IT ALSO STATED THAT REMEDY PARTS HAVE BEEN DELAYED AND WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR CERTAIN VEHICLES IN SPRING 2018. I CONTACTED FORD FOR FURTHER INFORMATION. I ASKED IF MY VEHICLE AIRBAG WILL BE REPLACED IN SPRING AND IF NOT, THEN WHEN. THEY STATED THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS THAN WHAT WAS STATED IN THE LETTER. I THEN INFORMED THEM THAT I NEED MY PASSENGER SEAT TO BE AVAILABLE FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES AND THAT EITHER THEY SHOULD REMOVE THE AIRBAG, PROVIDE ME WITH A LOANER VEHICLE, OR PAY FOR ANY OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES THAT I MAY INCUR FOR HAVING TO RENT ANOTHER VEHICLE FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES OR FOR HAVING TO HIRE UBER FOR PASSENGERS. THEY STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT OFFER ME ANY ASSISTANCE OTHER THAN REPLACING THE AIRBAG, WHICH THEY WILL NOT EVEN PROVIDE ME WITH A DATE OR TIME FRAME OF WHEN THAT WILL OCCUR. WHEN I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED MY VEHICLE, I PURCHASED A 2 SEAT VEHICLE. IT HAS NOW BECOME A 1 SEAT VEHICLE ACCORDING TO FORD'S LETTER, WHICH IS NOT WHAT I PURCHASED. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND WITH PASSENGERS DURING THE PERIOD JUNE 2016 TO DEC 2017 UNAWARE

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ABOUT MY 2009 FORD RANGER PASSENGER SIDE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG INFLATOR. I WENT TO WWW.AIRBAGRECALL.COM TO FIND AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG INFLATOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT THE BILL TALLEY FORD, INC. 6280 MECHANICSVILLE TURNPIKE, MECHANICSVILLE (804) 746-2000. I BROUGHT MY TRUCK IN ON THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2017. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACEMENT PART WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THREE YEARS FROM NOW. MY TRUCK DID NOT GET AN AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACEMENT PART.

TAKATA RECALL STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN REPLACEMENT. FREEDOM FORD OF POUNDING MILL GIVES ONLY EXCUSES NOT APPT. FOR REPLACEMENT.

I RECEIVED A PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG RECALL FROM FORD SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. FORD STATED THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THE REPAIR PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE. THEY NEVER DID. RECENTLY I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TK HOLDINGS INC., (REPRESENTING TAKATA CORPORATION) THAT THEY HAVE FILED FOR CHAPTER 11 AND THAT I SHOULD CONTACT MY DEALER TO GET THE REPAIR DONE. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH GALPIN FORD ON 11/28/1017 TO GET THE NECESSARY REPAIR. THEY CALLED ME BACK AND STATED THAT NO PARTS WERE AVAILABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE. SO. I AM KNOWINGLY DRIVING AROUND WITH A DANGEROUS POTENTIALLY LETHAL ISSUE WITH NO RECOURSE. I FEEL THAT IF FORD CANNOT FIX MY TRUCK (BOUGHT NEW FROM FORD) THAT THEY SHOULD BUY THE CAR BACK FROM ME OR REPLACE THE TRUCK AS IF A LEMON LAW APPLIED. THE VALUE OF THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN SUBSTANTIALLY LOWERED BY FORD'S NEGLIGENCE.

I RECEIVED A NOTICE IN THE MAIL IN MARCH OF 2017 NOTIFYING ME OF AN AIRBAG RECALL AND THAT I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN THE PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE. IT HAS NOW BEEN 8 MONTHS THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING A VEHICLE WHICH HAS THESE DANGEROUS EFFECTS, GOD FORBID SOMETHING HAPPENS TO SET OFF THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG. PLEASE, IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO EXPEDITE THE REPLACEMENT OF THIS RECALLED AIRBAG? SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 17S01 / NHTSA RECALL 17V-024.

TAKATA RECALL EVERY DEALERSHIP I CALL TO SCHEDULE THE REPLACEMENT NEAR TO MY HOME TELLS ME THE SAME BS, THAT THEY JUST DON'T HAVE THE PARTS.

'TAKATA RECALL'. I HAVE CALLED LAKE KEOWEE FORD IN SENECA AND EDWARDS FORD IN WALHALLA BOTH IN SC AND THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY AND GOT MY NAME AND NUMBER ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO AND I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM EITHER DEALERSHIP. I HAVE CALLED BACK A COUPLE TIMES AND THEY SAY THEY HAVEN'T GOT ANY. I WOULD LIKE FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. I AM GETTING THE RUN AROUND AND I AM GETTING AGGRAVATED. YOUR HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

TAFATA RECALL. WE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE IN MARCH, 2017 AND CONTACTED A LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE REPAIR MADE. AFTER THE PERSON LOOKED UP OUR VEHICLE IN HIS COMPUTER, HE REPLIED THAT "IT'S ONLY THE PASSENGER AIR BAG THAT'S AFFECTED, SO DON'T WORRY, THEY ONLY "GO OFF" IN HOT AND HUMID CLIMATES, AND SINCE PENNSYLVANIA ISN'T CONSIDERED A HOT AND HUMID CLIMATE, IT PROBABLY WON'T GO OFF". HE ESSENTIALLY REFUSED THIS REPAIR ON OUR VEHICLE. AND, NOW WE RECEIVE NOTICE THAT TAKATA HAS FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY, SO WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE US? I DO WANT TO NOTE THAT WE PURCHASED THE CAR IN ANOTHER STATE, BUT APPARENTLY THAT DOESN'T MATTER PER THE RECALL NOTICE. IT STATES TO CONTACT A LOCAL FORD OR LINCOLN DEALERSHIP TO REQUEST A FREE REPAIR. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHEN THIS REPAIR CAN BE MADE AND HOPEFULLY, BEFORE IT KILLS OR MAIMS SOMEONE IN THE VEHICLE, OR I DO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO SUE FORD, TAKATA AND THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP FOR ALL THEY ARE WORTH.

TAKATA RECALL. THERE HAS BEEN A CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT FOR SEVERAL CAR MAKERS. ARE THERE ANY ATTEMPTS AT A SETTLEMENT WITH FORD? WHEN WILL AUTOMAKERS BE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE THE RECALLS? FORD KEEPS TELLING ME THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL BE ABLE TO FIX THE AIRBAGS.

TAKATA RECALL: I CALLED THE FORD DEALER. THE MANAGER SAID THEY HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE PARTS. HE SAID FORD IS LOOKING FOR A SUPPLIER. AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THE PART MAY COME IN.

TAKATA RECALL - I AM UNABLE TO SAFELY CARRY ANY PASSENGERS DUE TO THE RECALL ON MY TRUCK. THE RECALL WAS DATED JUNE 1, 2016. THIS IS OVER A YEAR AGO. THIS PUTS AN UNDUE STRESS ON ME, FAMILY AND FRIENDS NOT TO BE ABLE TO UTILIZE THE PASSENGER SEAT OF MY VEHICLE.

I HAVE ASKED TWO DIFFERENT FORD DEALERS TO REPLACE MY DEFECTIVE AIRBAG AND BOTH SAY THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS TO REPAIR

TAKATA RECALL NOBODY WILL FIX AND REPLACE THE AIRBAGS FOR THE RECALL. WE HAVE BEEN TRYING SINCE 2016 WHEN WE RECEIVED OUR NOTICE. NOBODY HAS PARTS AND WE ARE TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. PARTS ARE ON ORDER. SAME THING AS OF TODAY WE CONTACTED LAKE ELSINORE FORD 951-471-4100 AND GOSCH FORD TEMECULA 951-699-1302. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE WHAT IF MY SON IS INJURED OR KILLED FROM THE AIRBAG....ALL WE GET TOLD IS SORRY! NOT ACCEPTABLE!!! NEED HELP ASAP!!!!!!

"TAKATA RECALL' EVER SINCE I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON 07/23/2016 FOR A PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG ON MY 2009 FORD RANGER. RECALL NOTICE (16S26/NHTSA 16V-384, I HAVE WENT TO MY FORD DEALER, LEIF JOHNSON FORD MANY MANY TIMES HERE IN AUSTIN,TX TO FIND OUT WHEN I CAN GET IT FIXED. ALL I GET IS EXCUSES. THE LAST TIME I INQUIRED I WAS TOLD THAT THEY ARE JUST A DEALER, AND THAT IT WAS FORDS PROBLEM! IT HAS BEEN OVER 15 MONTHS SINSE I RECEIVED THE RECALL , AND IT APPEARS THEY DO NOT CARE IF SOMEONE GETS HURT! IS THERE SOMETHING THAT COULD BE DONE TO GET THEM TO MOVE AND FIX THE PROBLEM

TAKATA RECALL - THE ONLY THING THAT HAS HAPPENED YET IS THAT I RECEIVED A RECALL (#16S26) IN MID JULY, 2016. I'VE SPOKEN TO FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE, MY LOCAL DEALER AND EVEN WROTE A LETTER TO THE NHTSA BUT ALL I'M TOLD IS THAT I WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN REPAIR PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. IT'S BEEN WELL OVER A YEAR NOW AND I WANT THIS FIXED! I WAS TOLD THAT IF THE MANUFACTURER HAS FAILED OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE IN A TIMELY MANNER THAT I SHOULD FILE AN ONLINE COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA SO THAT IS WHAT I'M DOING.

I GOT A LETTER FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY DTD JULY 2016. STATED AIR BAG WAS DEFECTIVE AND FORD WAS GOING TO REPLACE AIR BAG. I HAVE GONE TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THEN AND CALLED THEM AS WELL IN REFERENCE TO THE LIFE AND DEATH RECALL FOR AIR BAG THEY HAVE NOT REPLACED IT YET. THEY KEEP SAYING I WILL BE NOTIFIED. IT HAS BEEN 16 MONTHS .SINCE THIS WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION. STILL NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE DEALER GIVES ME FORDS NUMBER AND FORD SAYS I HAVE TO WAIT FOR A FOLLOW UP LETTER.

"TAKATA RECALL" MY PASSENGER AIR BAG NOTIFICATION WARNING LETTER IS ATTACHED TO MY PASSENGER SUN VISOR. WHEN SEEN BY MOST POTENTIAL PASSENGERS THEY REFUSE TO RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE SUFFERED A LOSS OF PASSENGER SPACE BECAUSE OF THIS HAZARDOUS DEFECT. ALONG WITH REPAIR NEEDED ASAP, I FEEL COMPENSATION FOR THIS DELAY IS DUE.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD IN JULY 2016 INFORMING ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THE TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE HEARD NOTHING SINCE THEN. EVERY TIME MY WIFE HAS TO RIDE IN MY TRUCK, SHE AND I BOTH WORRY THAT I MIGHT BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND SHE COULD BE INJURED BY THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. WOULD IT BE SAFER IF I COULD JUST HAVE THE AIRBAG DISCONNECTED?

TAKATA RECALL, RECEIVED SAFETY RECALL ON MARCH 3, 2017 IT IS NOW OCTOBER 27, 2017 AND FORD MOTOR COMPANY HAS YET TO NOTIFY VIA MAIL BY MAIL TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. I DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT BECAUSE OF THIS DANGER. I HAVE NOT HAD FULL USE OF MY VEHICLE FOR MORE THAN SEVEN MONTHS.

TAKATA RECALL, FORD MOTOR COMPANY SENT ME A LETTER IN THE MAIL STATING THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. I RECEIVED THIS LETTER IN MARCH OF 2017 AND AS OF TODAY OCT,27,2017 THERE IS NO SOLUTION FOR THE RECALL.

A RUPTURED INFLATOR MAY RESULT IN METAL FRAGMENTS STRIKING VEHICLE OCCUPANTS CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.]

IT IS NOW OCTOBER 2017, AND I STILL HAVEN'T RECEIVED SUCH A COMMUNICATION; I HAVE CONFIRMED THIS UNAVAILABILITY OF REMEDIAL REPAIRS ONLINE.
