TAKATA RECALL

TAKATA RECALL - IT HAS BEEN 2 YEARS WITH NO PARTS AVAILABLE. MY WIFE IS NOW RIDING IN THE BACK SEAT WITH OUR INFANT. WHAT ARE OUR OTHER OPTIONS TO GET THIS FIXED? 2 YEARS SEEMS A BIT RIDICULOUS FOR SUCH A SERIOUS ISSUE.

I DON'T RECALL EXACTLY WHEN THIS ISSUES STARTED BUT IT WAS AT LEAST 2015 POSSIBLY 2014. WHEN AN ABS EVENT OCCURS, THE BRAKE PEDAL GOES SOFT, TO THE FLOOR, AND TAKES LONGER TO BRAKE. THE PEDAL CONTINUES TO BE SOFT FOR ABOUT A DAY INITIALLY BEFORE RETURNING TO NORMAL. NOW IT OCCURS FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. THIS REQUIRES TO START BRAKING EARLIER AND LEAVE LOTS OF SPACE BETWEEN MY CAR AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME WHICH ISN'T ALWAYS POSSIBLE IN TRAFFIC. THE TIRES TEND TO SLIDE ON WET ROAD CONDITIONS NORMALLY BUT THE BRAKING ISSUE MAKES IT WORSE. VERY SCARY. I HAVE BEEN OVERLY CAUTIOUS AND HAVE HAD MANY CLOSE CALLS BUT NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT BY SOME MIRACLE. REMOVING THE TWO ABS FUSES (8 & 10) WHICH HAS HELPED BUT THIS RESULTED IN THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT TO BE ON PERMANENTLY. WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT ON, CAR WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION. BUT WITH THE FUSE IN, IF MY PEDAL IS SOFT AND GOES TO THE FLOOR BEFORE BRAKING, IT WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION EITHER. A GOOGLE SEARCH RESULTED IN THE FOLLOWING VIDEOS: 1) HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=0R46_UNYYK8 2) HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=VWFLKCXXZTY GOOGLE IT AND NUMEROUS OTHER VIDEOS WILL BE EASILY FOUND. NOTE: DATE, MILEAGE, AND SPEED IN FOLLOWING QUESTIONS WERE ESTIMATED. I KNOW APPROXIMATELY WHEN IT STARTED. REPORTING A SAFETY ISSUE IN THIS MANNER WAS NOT AN OPTION THAT I WAS AWARE OF.

SERPENTINE BELT COME OFF MAKING THE CAR UNABLE TO DRIVE. OIL ACCUMULATES ON THE BELT PULLEY CAUSES THE BELT TO COME OFF.

"TAKATA RECALL". I HAVE TWO LETTERS AND OTHER DOCUMENTS FROM FORD THAT MY VEHICLE IS UNDER A SAFETY RECALL FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG. WHEN I CHECK THE VIN THRU YOUR WEB SITE - IT SAYS THERE IS "NO" RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE. WHICH IS IT? THE FIRST LETTER WAS RECEIVED ALMOST TWO YEARS AGO.

"TAKATA RECALL." I WENT FOR MY CAR INSPECTION AT MOTOR VEHICLE 4/9/18 AND WAS TOLD BY THE INSPECTOR THAT, NOT ONLY ARE MY TWO (2) AIRBAGS RECALLED, BUT ARE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! ALSO, I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE REGARDING MY ANTI LOCK 'BRAKES, FROM SAME MANUFACTURER!' I AM A SENIOR CITIZEN, PLEASE HELP!! I WLD SINCERELY 'APPRECIATE' VERY MUCH ASAP! *TR

TAKATA RECALL I'VE RECEIVED 2 NOTIFICATIONS FROM MY DEALER THAT MY AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN RECALLED OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS BUT HAVEN'T BEEN NOTIFIED TO WHEN TO BRING MY CAR IN. WHEN I CHECK NHTSA FOR UPDATES IT SAYS THERE ARE "NO RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE". WHAT GIVES? SHOULD I BE WORRIED THAT THESE FAULTY AIRBAGS ARE GOING TO INJURE ME OR WORSE, MY FAMILY? THANKS. *TR

THE ABS SYSTEM ISN'T WORKING PROPERLY, AND THE BRAKES ARE VERY SPONGY, MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR. THIS STARTED WHEN I WAS BRAKING AT 40 MPH AND HIT A MILD BUMP IN THE ROAD TRIGGERING THE ABS TO ACTIVATE BRIEFLY. THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN INCONSISTENTLY SPONGY EVER SINCE, AND NOT CONSISTENTLY SPONGY RENDERING THE BRAKES UNPREDICTABLE AS WELL AS INTERMITTENTLY UNRESPONSIVE. THE BRAKE FLUID IS FINE, THE MASTER CYLINDER IS NOT LEAKING, AND THE BRAKE PADS AND CALIPERS ARE FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ABS PUMP/ACTUATOR ISSUE.

THE LOCAL DEALER (BELLO FORD IN CONROY, TX) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. IN ADDITION, THE RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS) WAS RECEIVED IN JUNE OF 2016.

VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL WHEN WILL THESE BE REPAIRED AFRAID OF PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN I BEGAN HEARING A NOISE FROM MY PASSENGER SIDE TIRE WHEN I WOULD BRAKE. I PULLED OVER TO SEE IF THERE WAS A FLAT, BUT DIDN'T NOTICE ANYTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY. I CONTINUED ON THE HIGHWAY HOME AND KEPT HEARING NOISES WHEN I WOULD BRAKE. I TOOK THE EXIT FOR MY NEIGHBORHOOD; WHILE I WAS ON THE ACCESS ROAD SLOWING DOWN TO THE SPEED LIMIT, THE PASSENGER REAR BRAKE LOCKED ON ME. I MADE IT TO A COMPLETE STOP ABOUT 100 FEET FROM THE LIGHT AT THE INTERSECTION. AFTER TURNING ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS, I TRIED TO ACCELERATE, BUT THE CAR DID NOT WANT TO MOVE. I ENDED UP BEING ABLE TO MOVE THE CAR AT A SLOW RATE TO THE STRIP MALL ABOUT A QUARTER OF A MILE AWAY. I CALLED FOR A TOW, BUT ALL THE ONES I REACHED OUT TO HAD AN APPROX. WAIT TIME OF 2 HOURS AND THE DEALERSHIP CLOSED IN 1 HOUR. WHILE DECIDING WHAT TO DO WITH THE CAR, I NOTICED THE ABS LIGHT WAS ON. I WAS ABOUT 5 MINUTES FROM HOME AND DECIDED TO DRIVE THE CAR ONWARD. I TOOK THE CAR AT A SLOW RATE TO TRY AND ENSURE NOTHING HAPPEN. WHEN I TURNED ONTO MY STREET, THE PASSENGER TIRE BLEW OUT AND THE ABS LIGHT TURNED OFF. I DROVE THE LAST FEW FEET HOME AND CALLED A TOW THE FOLLOWING MORNING. THE CAR IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP IN QUEUE TO BE WORKED ON.

2007 MERCURY MILAN, CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO AIR BAG INFLATOR SAFETY RECALL. *LD *JS

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 MERCURY MILAN. WHEN THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE PEDAL HAD TO BE PUMPED BECAUSE THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED TO ENGAGE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE SLID FORWARD AND THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY EXTREME FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS). THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY BRAKE RECALLS OR NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE16017 (SERVICE BRAKES, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE BRAKE WENT TO THE FLOOR WHEN DRIVING THRU WET SURFACE. ABS PROBLEM, CANNOT STOP THE CAR IN TIME.

I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION DECEMBER 2017 ABOUT THE ISSUE AND CAR CAN BE FIXED WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. I CALLED TO CHECK ON THE STATUS TODAY AND THE RECORDING STATED PART WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL EARLY SPRING 2018. TMSEVEN MONTHS IS A LONG TIME NOT TO HAVE SOMEONE SIT IN YOUR FRONT SEAT.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM MERCURY IN 2015 ABOUT THE RECALL. I CONTACTED APPLE VALLEY FORD LINCOLN IN APPLE VALLEY MINNESOTA (PHONE: 952-431-5900) AND THEY TOLD ME NO REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS ARE AVAILABLE AND WOULD NOT GIVE ME A DATE WHEN THEY WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE! ADDITIONALLY THEY WOULD NOT PROVIDE ME WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE UNTIL THE AIRBAGS ARE REPLACED. I NEED THE AIRBAGS REPLACED IMMEDIATELY OR A LOANER CAR. I'VE DRIVEN AN UNSAFE CAR LONG ENOUGH.

TWO INCIDENTS, BOTH LIGHT RAIN DAYS, TRAVELING SPEED LIMIT, ON A CITY STREET - WHILE DRIVING I CAME UPON A SITUATION WHERE I WAS REQUIRED TO QUICKLY APPLY MY BRAKES. ONCE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, THE CAR DID NOT STOP AS SOON AS IT SHOULD HAVE AND HIT THE OTHER CAR. AFTERWARDS, ANYTIME I HAD TO TRY TO STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD TO BE ALMOST TO THE FLOOR BEFORE IT WOULD STOP. THE FIRST TIME, I TOOK IT TO BE LOOKED AT AND WAS TOLD THAT THE BRAKES WERE FINE. THE SECOND TIME, I WAS COMING UPON A LIGHT THAT WAS ABOUT TO TURN RED. I PUT ON MY BRAKE AND THE CAR ONCE AGAIN DID NOT STOP IN THE TIME THAT IT SHOULD HAVE.I WAS ALMOST IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION BEFORE THE CAR STOPPED. I HAD ALREADY HAD MY BRAKES AND ROTORS LOOKED AT SO I KNEW THAT IT WAS NEITHER OF THOSE. FOR THE REMAINDER OF MY DRIVE, I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE ALMOST TO THE FLOOR BEFORE IT WOULD STOP. WHEN I DROVE IT AGAIN AFTER WORK, 8 HRS LATER, THE BRAKES WERE BACK TO NORMAL.

THE 2006- 2012 MERCURY MILAN AND FORD FUSION ARE VERY LIKELY TO LOOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. DUE TO THE THE WAY THE BELT TENSIONER IS MOUNTED ON THE ENGINE IS IT VERY COMMON THAT THE BOLT HOLDING THE PULLEY IN PLACE WILL SNAP CAUSING ACCESORIES TO SHUT OFF DUE TO THE BELT FALLING OFF, FORD WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF IT, MYSELF AND HUNDRED OF OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE AS I WENT TO FORUMS ONLINE AND FOUND ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, THESE ARE VERY SAFE DEPENDABLE CARS UNTIL THIS STARTED HAPPEING TO ALL OF US, IF YOU ARE UNSURE AS TO IF YOU SHOULD BELIEVE, START A POLL WITH THE OWNERS OF VEHICLES MENTIONED AND OTHERS MADE BY FORD MOTORS, ITS FOUND TO BE VERY COMMON.

I HAVE RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF THE TAKATA RECALL FROM FORD MOTOR CO. UNFORTUNATELY THE 2007 MERCURY MILAN IS USED TO CARRY CHILDREN IN THE FRONT AND REAR SEATS. HOWEVER, THE RECALL NOTIFICATION STATES EXPLICITLY NOT TO ALLOW PASSENGERS TO USE THE FRONT SEAT. THIS MAKES THE CAR UNUSABLE. FORD NEEDS TO PROVIDE A CAR OR MEANS TO RENT ANOTHER VEHICLE UNTIL THE DEFECTIVE AND UNSAFE AIR BAG HAS BEEN REPAIRED. THERE ARE NO OTHER MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION AVAILABLE AND THIS VEHICLE IS NECESSARY TO TRANSPORT CHILDREN IN AFFECTED SEAT. WHICH FORD MOTOR CO. HAS INSTUCTED NOT TO USE.

"TAKATA RECALL" JULY 2016 FORD SENT ME A LETTER THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR IS DEFECTIVE AND THEY WILL BE LETTING ME KNOW WHEN TO TAKE IT IN TO GET IT REPLACED. RECEIVED A LETTER TODAY ( 1 AND 1/2 YEARS LATER) FROM FORD THAT THEY ARE STILL WORKING ON THE PROBLEM AND WHEN AND IF THEY COME UP WITH A FIX THEY WILL LET ME KNOW WHEN TO GET IT FIXED. THEY ALSO STRESS THAT NO ONE SHOULD RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AS THEY CAN BE INJURED OR KILLED BY THE AIRBAG IF IN AN ACCIDENT. THE ONLY THING THEY FORGOT TO MENTION IS THE TRADE IN VALUE OF THE VEHICLE IS NONE. IT IS AN UNSAFE VEHICLE SO THE DEALERS CAN NOT RESELL IT SO THEY DON'T WANT IT AS A TRADE. FORD SHOULD BE MADE TO EITHER BUY BACK THE VEHICLE OR TELL THEIR DEALERS TO GIVE A SPECIAL TRADE VALUE. I AM STUCK WITH A CAR THAT I CAN NOT TRADE IN AND I CAN NOT LET ANYONE RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. EVER TRY GOING ON A DATE AND SHE HAS TO SIT IN THE BACK SEAT? I GUESS FORD IS TELLING US NOT TO ALLOW ANYONE IN THE FRONT SEAT SO WHEN SOMEONE GETS KILLED THEY CAN SAY THEY TOLD US NOT TO SIT THERE. VW GOT THE ROYAL SCREWING BECAUSE OF THE DIESEL RIGGING AND THEY WERE MADE TO BUY BACK THE VEHICLES OR GIVE THE OWNERS MONEY. NOBODY DIED FROM THAT SCREW UP. FORD IS GETTING AWAY WITH MURDER.

I WAS DRIVING ON COUNTRY ROADS WITH SNOWY CONDITIONS, AND WHEN I STARTED BRAKING TO MAKE A TURN,ABS ENGAGED BECAUSE OF SLIPPERY ROADS, IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER I EXPERIENCED A LACK OF BRAKING POWER /A SOFT SINKING BRAKE PEDAL WITH LITTLE TO NO BRAKING POWER. THIS IS A TRAFFIC SAFETY HAZARD, UPON DOING SOME ONLINE RESEARCH I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM , THE ABS CONTROL MODULE, OR THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL ASSEMBLY HAS A STICKING VALVE IN THE ABS SYSTEM, ROUTING THE BRAKE FLUID THROUGH THE ABS SYSTEM INSTEAD OF TO THE BRAKES, WHERE IT SHOULD GO. FORD MOTOR COMPANY SHOULD BE ISSUING A RECALL FOR THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE OWNERS, AND FOR THE INTEGRITY OF THEIR OWN COMPANY THE ABS CONTROL MODULE NEEDS TO BE UPDATED AND REPLACED

WHILE BACKING THE VEHICLE DOWN A SNOWY DRIVEWAY THE ABS ENGAGED BRIEFLY. MOMENTS LATER, I HAD TO BRAKE TO ALLOW AN ONCOMING CAR TO PASS, AND THE BRAKES WERE SUDDENLY VERY SOFT, PEDAL WENT ALMOST TO THE FLOOR AND I HAD TO TAKE EVASIVE MANEUVERS ONTO A CURB TO AVOID COLLISION. THE BRAKES REMAINED VERY SOFT AND SPONGY, THOUGH THEY IMPROVED A BIT WITH PUMPING.
