TAKOTA RECALL

MY 2009 MERCURY MILAN ALMOST HAS NO BRAKES. I WAS DRIVING IN THE SNOW, AND HAD THE ABS ACTUATE, AND IMMEDIATELY THE BRAKE PEDAL ALMOST GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. BEFORE MY ABS WAS ACTUATED MY PEDAL WAS COMPLETELY NORMAL. I'VE DONE A LITTLE RESEARCH AND KNOW THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS FOR THE HCU ON THIS MODEL. I BELIEVE MINE IS FAILING AND UNSAFE. IT HAS BEEN OVER A WEEK NOW, AND IT HASN'T GOTTEN ANY BETTER. I ASK THAT THIS PLEASE BE RECALLED, FOR THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND OTHERS. THANK YOU

I NOTICED ABOUT A YEAR AGO THAT UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, LIKE WHEN BRAKING HARD OR FAST WITH SHORT BRAKING DISTANCE, ON WET OR UNEVEN PAVEMENT, OR WHEN MAKING A TURN WHILE BREAKING, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES VERY SOFT AND TRAVELS TO THE FLOOR CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO DO A NUMBER OF ALTERNATIVE MANEUVERS, SUCH AS MANUALLY PUMPING THE BRAKES OR DOWNSHIFTING TO A LOW GEAR TO SLOW THE ENGINE TO STOP THE CAR. IN SOME CASES, THE CAR DOES NOT STOP AT ALL CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH A RED LIGHT OR AROUND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I NOTICE THAT ONCE I'M STOPPED, IF I PUMP THE BRAKES 10-15 TIMES, THE PLIABILITY SEEMS TO RETURN TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT TO FEEL SAFE. I HAVE SEEN THAT THIS PROBLEM IS CURRENTLY UNDER INVESTIGATION AND AM TOLD THAT THERE IS SOME DEFECT IN THE HYDRAULIC BRAKING SYSTEM ASSOCIATED WITH THE ABS. LIKE MANY OTHERS, I'VE HAD THE PROBLEM EVALUATED AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE ISN'T ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE HYDRAULICS, BUT IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. READING WHAT OTHERS HAVE WRITTEN MAKES ME FEEL THAT THIS IS A DEFECT THAT SHOULD FALL UNDER A RECALL AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND IS UNPREDICTABLE AND INTERMITTENT. THE COST TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM IS EXCESSIVE FROM THE ESTIMATES I'VE RECEIVED, AND EVEN WHEN THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN "FIXED," IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. I AM NOT IN A POSITION TO SELL THE CAR RIGHT NOW AND DEPEND ON IT EVERY DAY. THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED AS IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, JUST LIKE THE GM IGNITIONS WERE. DOES IT TAKE SOM

TAKATA RECALL: TO DATE, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOTICE THAT RECALL CAN BE REPAIRED. RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED IN A TIMELY MANNER.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN TRYING OVER A YEAR TO GET MY CAR IN TO HAVE THE AIRBAG REPLACED BUT MY DEALER KEEPS SAYING THEY DON'T HAVE ANY AIRBAGS AND WON'T GIVE ME AN APPOINTMENT. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND NOW THE SUSPENSION IS GOING OUT, THE RADIATOR IS LEAKING AND OIL IS LEAKING.

HAVE HAD SEVERAL INSTANCES WHILE DRIVING ON ROUGH SURFACES OR WET CONDITIONS WHERE THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME SOFT AND REQUIRED A LOT OF PUMPING AND PUSHING IT TO THE FLOOR TO STOP THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE REQUIRED MUCH LONGER DISTANCES TO STOP AND CAUSED SON TO RUN THROUGH A RED LIGHT WITHOUT AN ACCIDENT. BRAKES WILL WORK FINE THE NEXT DAY. TOOK TO LOCAL REPAIR SHOP AND THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. TOOK TO DEALER AND INFORMED THEM OF ISSUES I RESEARCHED CONCERNING THE ABS CONTROL UNIT. THEY ESSENTIALLY REFUSED TO REPLACE IT EVEN WHEN WE WERE WILLING TO PAY FOR IT. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE IT WAS MALFUNCTIONING. TRIED TO EXPLAIN ONLY HAPPENS UNDER THE ABOVE MENTIONED CONDITIONS SO FAR. WILL GET BACK FROM DEALER AND SEE IF ANOTHER LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WILL REPLACE THE ABS CONTROL UNIT.

TAKATA RECALL. NO FIX CURRENTLY AVAILABLE FOR MY "POTENTIALLY" AFFECTED VEHICLE. WHAT ARE THE NEXT STEPS?

TAKATA RECALL. STILL UNABLE TO GET THE RECALL FIXED ON MY CAR AND I'M AFRAID THAT I MAY HAVE AN ACCIDENT AND BE IMPAIRED BY A FAULTY AIRBAG.

TAKATA RECALL REMEDY NO YET AVAILABLE,FORD CLAIMS NO PARTS AVAILABLE

BRAKES FAIL WHEN NEEDED IN EMERGENCIES; ESPECIALLY DURING WET CONDITIIINS.

BRAKES DO NOT WORK PROPERLY AFTER HARD STOP. SOFT AND SLOW TO STOP. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT LEAST 3 TIMES IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. I REPLACE THE ABS UNIT A YEAR AGO WITH ANOTHER USED OEM ABS UNIT .TODAY AFTER HARD BRAKE STOP AGAIN I'M HAVING THE SAME ISSUE (SOFT AND SLOW TO STOP). I DROVE BACK TO HOME I'M PARKED THE CAR ON MY DRIVEWAY AND I CAN DRIVE THIS CAR TILL TO GET A NEW ABS MODULE. THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST TIME THAT I'M GOING TO BUY A FORD OR MERCURY CARS.

NOTHING BAD HAS HAPPENED, YET. A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, WE NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES BECAME MUCH SOFTER. IT BECAME NECESSARY TO PUSH FURTHER DOWN ON THE PEDAL TO ENGAGE THEM. WE TOOK THE CARE TO A SHOP IN MARCH OF 2016. THE MECHANICS CHECKED THE WHOLE SYSTEM, AND THOUGHT IT WAS THE MASTER CYLINDER, SO HE PUT A NEW ONE IT. HE CALLED US TO TELL US, THAT WASN'T THE ISSUE, SO HE REMOVED IT, AND DID NOT CHARGE US. I DID SOME ON LINE SEARCHES, WHICH I'VE CONTINUED, AND SAW THAT THERE WERE SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THAT NHTSA WAS LOOKING AT, AND HEIR MIGHT BE A RECALL. I'VE CONTINUED TO CHECK EVERY FEW MONTHS, OR SO , FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS, BUT STILL NO WORD OF A RECAP. I CHECKED ON MUFFED.COM TODAY, AND FORD STILL HAS NOT RECALLED THE PROBLEM. THE ONLY RECALL APPEARING FOR THAT CAR IS THE CURRENT AIR BAG ISSUE (16S26). MY WIFE TELLS ME THAT NOW SHE'S USED TO IT AND THAT IF IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, FORD WOULD RECALL IT. I WON'T DRIVE THE CAR. I THINK IT'S A ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. I DOUBT THIS WILL ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING, OR THAT I'LL GET A RESPONSE, BUT I'D LIKE TO KNOW THE STATUS ON THIS SITUATION, AND WANT TO GO ON RECORD AS REPORTING IT. MAYBE FORD WILL TAKE CARE OF IT EVENTUALLY IF ENOUGH PEOPLE COMPLAIN.

FOR A WHILE WHEN I WOULD APPLY MY BRAKES I WOULD LOSE THEM IN THE FACT THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PUSH THEM ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. AFTER THIS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES I WOULD HAVE NO BRAKES AT ALL. MY MECHANICS COULD NOT FIGURE THIS OUT BECAUSE AFTER THE CAR WOULD SIT OR I PUMPED THE BRAKES THEY WOULD RETURN UNTIL FINALLY THEY JUST WENT COMPLETELY. AT THIS TIME I CAME TO FIND OUT THAT THE ABS SYSTEM HAD TO BE REPLACED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS A DEFECT. THE ONLY COMPANY I COULD GET THE PART FROM WAS FORD! NO OTHER COMPANY OR AFTER-MARKET WAS COMPATABLE. TELL ME FORD DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS???? COST ME OVER $1K

MY PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT INFLATE IF I AM EVER INVOLVED IN A CRASH. THIS IS A CONCERN BECAUSE I'M A SCARED SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN TO MY PASSENGER WHEN I AM DRIVING. THE REMEDY FOR MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED THEREFORE IT IS A RISK TO DRIVE IN MY CAR.

MY DAUGHTER HIT HER BRAKES HARD WHILE DRIVING ON ICY ROADS, AND THEREAFTER EXPERIENCED THE BRAKE PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR AND INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES. I TEST DROVE HER CAR AND EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING. DUE TO BEING A SAFETY FACTOR, AND THE FACT WE LIVE IN THE MIDWEST WHERE TRAFFIC CONDITIONS ARE OFTEN SLICK, WE FELT WE HAD TO GET THE BRAKES FIXED FOR HER SAFETY EVEN THOUGH SHE DIDN'T YET GET IN AN ACCIDENT. YOU CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE A CAR WHERE THE BRAKES ARE LIABLE TO FAIL AT ANY MOMENT YOU HAVE TO HIT THEM HARD THROUGH NO FAULT OF YOUR OWN. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED!

I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET MY AIRBAGS REPLACED AS PART OF THE RECALL AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA OF WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS. AS IT STANDS, IT IS UNSAFE FOR ANYONE TO RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF MY CAR AND I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF ANY DRIVER OF THIS VEHICLE IN MY FAMILY. I AM HIGHLY UPSET THAT THIS IS TAKING SO LONG AND THAT THERE SEEMS TO BE NO REGARD FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. THIS IS THE MAIN VEHICLE DRIVEN AND I DO NOT HAVE THE LUXURY OF JUST PARKING IT AND WAITING UNTIL SOMEONE DECIDES WE ARE IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO FIX THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I AM DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED IN HOW THIS IS BEING HANDLED.

TAKATA RECALL. WE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE BACK IN EARLY 2016 ABOUT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. WE RECEIVED ANOTHER LETTER SAYING THEY ARE STILL WORKING ON GETTING VEHICLES TO FORD DEALERSHIPS SO IT CAN BE FIXED. I'M A STAFF SERGEANT IN THE US ARMY CURRENTLY STATIONED IN FORT WAINWRIGHT ALASKA. I CAN'T HAVE ANY OPEN RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE IN ORDER FOR THE ARMY TRANSPORTATION. I CAN'T LEAVE MY CAR IN ANOTHER STATE WHILE I MOVE TO ANOTHER DUTY STATION WITH MY FAMILY. THERE HAS BE AWAY THIS ISSUE CAN BE FIXED SOON.
