2014 Ford Mustang Air Bags & Restraints Problems

My son was driving to school. He was not speeding or any type of reckless driving. He hit an ice patch. His car spun and flew thru the air. The airbag compartment opened but it was defective. All metal shards came flying out of it causing multiple lacerations. He also lost consciousness from the impact and I was told by hospital ER doctor the airbag was defective and he was suffering from a very serious concussion.

I randomly checked to see if any recalls were out regarding this vehicle. Upon checking I entered my vin # but was advised it was not part of the airbag recall. However my airbag light constantly comes on.

I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR THREE MONTHS TO GET MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP (FREEDOM FORD OF MORGANTOWN) TO COOPERATE WITH ME TO GET THIS SAFETY RECALL DONE. IT'S APPARENT THEY WOULD RATHER MAKE MONEY INSTEAD OF FIXING RECALLS. MY VEHICLE DOES NOT SEE RAIN OR SNOW.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS RECALL NOTICES FOR THIS VEHICLE, BUT I HAVEN'T OWNED OR LEASED THIS VEHICLE FOR 5 YEARS. I CALLED FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO REQUEST THAT THEY REDIRECT THE RECALL NOTICE TO THE CURRENT OWNER BUT THEY SAID THEY WERE UNABLE TO DO SO. PART OF THE EXCUSE I WAS GIVEN WAS THAT FORD DOESN'T SEND OUT THE NOTICES, THEY SUBCONTRACT THIS TO ANOTHER ENTITY. I DON'T KNOW WHO THE CURRENT OWNER IS. I WAS THE ORIGINAL LESSEE OF THE VEHICLE WHEN I WAS AN EMPLOYEE OF FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THIS WAS PART OF THE MANAGEMENT LEASE VEHICLE PROGRAM. ALL REGISTRATION OF THE VEHICLE WAS HANDLED BY THEM, FOR THIS AND ALL THE OTHER VEHICLES THAT I LEASED FROM THEM AS PART OF THIS PROGRAM. THIS VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO FORD AT THE END OF THE LEASE AND THEY THEN DISPOSITIONED IT, EITHER THROUGH RESALE OR OTHER RESULT. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT FORD KNOWINGLY IS NOT INFORMING THE CORRECT OWNER/LESSEE OF THIS VEHICLE OF THE CURRENT TAKATA RECALLS. I REGRET THAT I HAVE TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST FORD MOTOR COMPANY, AS A FORMER EMPLOYEE WHO RESPECTS THE COMPANY AND ITS PRODUCTS, BUT MY INTENT IS TO ENSURE THAT THE CURRENT OWNER OF THE VEHICLE IS NOTIFIED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE GIVEN THE SEVERITY OF THE ISSUE. NOTE: THE CARD THAT I RECEIVED WITH NOTICE OF THIS RECALL SAYS "DON'T PRESS YOUR LUCK!"

RECALL ON DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG. IS MY CAR AFFECTED? [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I PURCHASED A CAR A MONTH AGO, RIGHT AFTER I FILLED ALL PAPERWORK OUT AND WAS TO TAKE DELIVERY THE AIRBAG LIGHT WENT OFF. THEY SENT CAR TO A FORD DEALER 2 WEEKS LATER AND SAID THE PART NEEDED IS ON BACKORDER UNTIL 12/14. (I AM MAKING PAYMENTS AND INSURANCE ON CAR) THEY GAVE ME A PART NUMBER OF DR3Z1HA005HC AND CARMAX IS TELLING ME NOW THE FORD DEALER IS GIVING THEM A HARD TIME. I HAVE SEARCHED THIS PART THRU FORD AND THERE ISN'T ONE. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE A DRIVERS SEAT AIRBAG HARNESS THAT HAS SENSORS ON IT. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO AS A CONSUMER? I WANT THIS CAR! I NEED THIS CAR! I'M PAYING FOR THIS CAR! EVERYONE IS BEING UNHELPFUL!
