TAKATA RECALL. I WAS NOTIFIED OF A DANGER IN JULY 2016. THIS VEHICLE IS DRIVEN DAILY FOR BUSINESS BY MY GRANSON AND I AM AFRAID HIS LIFE IS IN DANGER DAILY. HOW CAN I LET HIM DRIVE THIS DANGEROUS VEHICLE? HOW CAN I GET FORD TO BUY IT BACK? MY FAMILY BUSINESS DEPENDS UPON THIS TRUCK YET I WANT THIS TRUCK OUT OF MY LIFE. HONDA HAD A SIMILAR RECALL AND THEIRS WERE REMEDIED IMMEDIATELY. HOW MUCH IS A LIFE WORTH? I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT FORD CANNOT GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF. THIS IS ONE OF 2 FORDS THAT I OWN AND I CERTAINLY CAN'T GET RID OF THEM WITH THIS MESS IN PLACE. SHOULDN'T FORD BE ACTING JUST A BIT QUICKER? ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED BECAUSE AT THIS POINT, I FEEL THAT FORD IS CRIMINALLY NEGLIGENT!

TAKATA RECALL

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS SENT THE ORIGINAL LETTER FOR THE PASSENGER BAG RECALL IN JULY 2016. I JUST RECEIVED THE LETTER FROM TKH TELLING ME TO CONTACT MY NEAREST DEALERSHIP TO GET THIS FIXED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERS IN THE LAS VEGAS AREA AND THEY SAY THEY DON'T HAVE PARTS. I HAVE CALLED ALL THESE NUMBERS GIVEN ON THE LETTER AND THE RECENT CARD, THAT JUST GO TO RECORDINGS TO TRY AND FIND HELP. THIS HAS AFFECTED MY LIFE GREATLY. HAVING JUST A TWO SEATER TRUCK, I AM NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE MY GRANDCHILD IN THE TRUCK WITH ME. EVEN THOUGH I AGREE, I WOULDN'T WANT TO RISK HER LIFE!! THIS HAS REALLY PUT A STRAIN ON OUR RELATIONSHIP AS WE CANNOT DO THINGS TOGETHER AND NOBODY WILL LOAN ME THEIR CAR. WHY AM I GETTING THIS LETTER (THAT WILL GIVE US OUR LIFE BACK) IF THERE ARE NO PARTS? THIS HAS BEEN WELL OVER A YEAR!! PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU!

TAKATQA RECALL. IN JULY, 2016 I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY ADVISING ME OF THE RECALL ON MY FORD RANGER DUE TO THE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR SAFETY ISSUE, BUT GIVING NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. ON DECEMBER 28, 2017, (17 MONTHS LATER) I RECEIVED A FOLLOW-UP LETTER SAYING THAT PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE, BUT UNTIL PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE I SHOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO SET IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE LETTERS GIVE NO ESTIMATION OF WHEN THE PARTS MAY BECOME AVAILABLE. THIS DELAY IN REPAIRING A DEADLY SERIOUS DEFECT IS UNACCEPTABLE! THIS MAKES MY RANGER PRACTICALLY UNUSABLE SINCE I CANNOT ALLOW A PASSENGER IN THAT SEAT NOR CAN I PUT A BRIEFCASE OR OTHER OBJECT IN THE SEAT SINCE EITHER ACTION COULD CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO INFLATE IN AN ACCIDENT . THANK YOU.

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.

MY VEHICLE IS PART OF THE AIR BAG RECALL RE: TAKATA MANUFACTURED AIR BAGS. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM FORD THAT A REPLACEMENT PART IS AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN NEARLY 18 MONTHS SINCE THIS RECALL. WHERE IS MY REPLACEMENT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG?!

TAKATA RECALL, FORD NOTIFIED ME ABOUT THE AIR BAGS A LONG TIME AGO. I WILL NOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE . IM TOO SCARED TO DRIVE IT. IVE LOST MY JOB AND IM GOING TO LOOSE MY VEHICLE CAUSE I CAN NOT MAKE PAYMENTS. I PUTDOWN TEN THOUSAND CASH FOR THIS VEHILCLE. THEY SHOULD FIX MY TRUCK AND PAY FOR MY LOSS OF WAGES. THIS IS SO UNFAIR. I AM NOT WILLING TO BE KILLED DRIVING IT. *TR

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 OF THE RISK BECAUSE FORD FAILED TO NOTIFY ME OF THE DANGER UNTIL DEC 2017. THANKFULLY, THERE HAS BEEN NO SITUATION THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG. IT HAS BEEN 1 1/2 YEARS AND FORD HAS DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION. THEY PLACED A FAULTY AIRBAG IN MY VEHICLE AND THEY HAVE MADE IT MY PROBLEM. FORD IS UNWILLING TO CORRECT THEIR PROBLEM.

MY BROTHER BROUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW AND LEFT IT TO ME WHEN HE PASS AWAY A FEW YEARS AGO.

DON,T HAVE THE PART IN. THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, BUT I HAVE A SON WHO DOES RIDE WITH ME FROM TIME TO TIME. WHAT CAN I DO TO HAVE THIS TAKEN CARE OF BY THE FORD MOTOR CO.? THE MONTH DATE AND YEAR I WILL FILL THAT IN WHEN HE FIRST GOT THE RECALL NOTICE FOR IF I DON,T PUT A DATE IN THE SPACE PROVIDED BELOW IT WON,T ALLOW ME TO GO TO NEXT STEP.

TRAVELING HOME FROM A TRIP OUT OF TOWN, WE EXPERIENCED A SLIGHT PULL TO THE RIGHT, WHICH ONLY HAPPENED ONCE AT THE BEGINNING OF OUR TRIP. WE WERE THINKING IT MAY BE TIME FOR AN ALIGNMENT. AS WE WERE TRAVELING HOME, WE STOPPED FOR GAS AND UPON RETURNING TO THE EXPRESSWAY AND GAINING SPEED, SOMETHING IN THE FRONT RIGHT OF THE TRUCK SNAPPED. THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE AND THEN THE TRUCK VEERED SEVERELY TO THE RIGHT. AS WE ATTEMPTED TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE TRUCK IT SLAMMED INTO THE CONCRETE WALL DIVIDING THE HIGHWAYS. MY HUSBAND AND I BOTH HAVE MULTIPLE BRUISES, ALONG WITH QUITE A BIT OF PAIN AT THE MOMENT. WE WERE VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE WALKED AWAY FROM THIS ACCIDENT. THE TRUCK IS A TOTAL LOSS AND QUITE SCARY TO LOOK AT. I DO HAVE PICTURES AVAILABLE IF REQUESTED. *TT
