TAKATA RECALL - AS PER NOTICE RECEIVED IN MAIL, I CHECKED MY VEHICLE DETAILS AGAINST THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL NOTIFICATION.

PREVIOUS PRODUCT RECALLS ON GAS TANK NOT RECTIFIED BECAUSE NO REMEDY AVAILABLE. SEEMS COMPANY BECOMES AWARE OF PROBLEMS THEN DOES NOTHING TO NOTIFY THE CUSTOMER AND DOES NOTHING TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THIS TIME WASTAGE PUTS MY FAMILY AT RISK WHICH I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT. NO INCIDENT AS OF YET, BUT YOUR WEBSITE ADVISED TO MAKE CONTACT WITH YOU AND FILE COMPLAINT IF NOT HAPPY WITH RESOLUTION TO PRODUCT RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL: LETTER RECEIVED IN JULY 2016 ABOUT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE 16S26/NHTSA RECALL 16V-384. ISSUE HAS STILL NOT BEEN RESOLVED.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND WENT TO PUT ON THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WAS REAL HARD HAD TO PUMP AND PUSH HARD. WAS TOLD IT COULD BE MASTER CYLINDER . WAS TOLD BY A LOCAL MECHANIC HE THOUGH IT WAS UNDER WARRENTY AS A RECALL. DEALER SHIP HAD NO RECORD OF SUCH.

95000 MILES. WENT OVER A SMALL POTHOLE WHILE TAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN. BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. 4TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE LAST 2 YEARS. USUALLY FIXED ITSELF AFTER A COUPLE HOURS OF DRIVING. THIS TIME IT DID NOT. DROVE OVER 200 MILES WITH THE PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR TO STOP. READ ON A FORUM THAT IT IS A BAD AND HYDRAULIC C UNIT AND THAT A TEMP FIX WOULD BE TO DO SEVERAL ABS STOPS ON A LOOSE GRAVEL ROAD. TRIED THAT AND IT WORKED. AFRAID THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND WON'T STOP IN TIME. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. NEED A RECALL. THIS IS HAPPENING IN 2008 FORDS AND LINCOLNS. SAW AT LEAST 200 INSTANCES ON FORUMS. I HAVE A EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT UNLESS IT'S DOING IT WHEN I BRING IT IN THEY WON'T FIX IT

DEALER STATED THEY DID NOT HAVE THEM IN STOCK ON 7-17-17. DEALER NEVER CALL BACK WITH DATE TO REPLACE AIR BAG.

UPON ENTERING AN ON-RAMP TO THE THRUWAY, THE DRIVER SIDE LOWER BALL JOINT WAS COMPLETELY GONE, DISABLING THE VEHICLE WHILE MY WIFE WAS ACCELERATING. THE WHEEL CAME ALMOST COMPLETELY OFF THE VEHICLE. I'M NOT SURE WHERE OR HOW THE BALL JOINT CAME OFF. MY INFANT SON WAS IN THE BACK SEAT, HAD THE VEHICLE BEEN GOING THRUWAY SPEED, THIS INCIDENT COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY.

MY 2008 LINCOLN MKX STARTS CUTTING OUT AND CHUGGING AT THE SPEED OF 45 MPH YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT GAS TO GET IT UP OVER 50ISH TO COME OUT OF IT. IT WILL DO AGAIN AT TIME OUT ON THE INTERSTATE AROUND THE SPEED OF 60 MPH BUT AT THIS TIME THE ABS AND SKID LIGHT COME ON. I'M AFRAID WITH HAVING MY GRANDDAUGHTERS IN THE CAR THAT SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN WHEN I'M OUT ON THE ROAD WITH THEM. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY WANT AN ARM AND A LEG AND WILL NOT JUST GIVE A SUGGESTION OR ADVICE, THE TRANSMISSION SHOP PUT A MACHINE ON IT BUT CAN'T DETECT ANY CERTAIN CAUSE.

TAKATA RECALL, SHIFTING MISFIRE, FAULTY BATTERY AND LOW GAS MILEAGE

TRANSISSILON HAS BEEN SLIPPINBG FOR MONTHS. TOLD IT WAS MISFIRE. NOW CAR INCHES ALOLNG WITH HIGH ACCELERATION ATTEMPT. SEVERAL NOISES AND STOPPED. WAS ABLE TO CREEP OUT OF TRAFFIC AND PARK. NOW WONT MOVE AT ALL.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL - I WAS NOTIFIED IN JUNE 2016 THAT THE AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN RECALLED , AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY AND EVEN DEATH. IT'S NOW 16 MONTHS LATER AND THE DEALER SAYS THEY STILL DON'T HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PARTS. HOW CAN I FACILITATE THIS REPAIR?

VEHICLE VEHICLE FREQUENTLY HAS TO STARTED TWICE BECAUSE THE FIRST TIME THE VEHICLE IS STARTED IF I GO OVER 40MPH THE ENGINE AND SUSPENSION START PULLING AND JERKING AND THE SPEEDOMETER WILL KEEP INCREASING EVEN THOUGH THE CAR SUSPENSION IS ONLY ALLLOWING 30MPH

THE DRIVER DOOR AJAR LIGHT CONTINUES TO ILLUMINATE CAUSING THE ALARM TO GO OFF WHEN PARKED AND LOCKED. IT WILL TURN ON CONSISTENTLY EVEN WHILE DRIVING.

I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF AN AIRBAG RECALL AND THE TIME FROM NOTIFICATION TO REMEDY, WHICH AT THIS TIME STILL HAS YET TO BE DETERMINED, HAS BEEN EXTREMELY LONG AND LEAVING OWNERS IN A VERY DANGEROUS POSITION. I DEMAND THAT FORD IMMEDIATELY ADVISE WHEN A REMEDY BE AVAILABLE. THE TIME FOR WAITING IS OVER.

TAKATRA RECALL: STILL WAITING ALMOST A YEAR FOR THE FIX TO THE AIR BAG. FORD/LINCOLN AT CORPORATE AND LOCAL DEALER LEVELS HAVE SAME STORY, NO FIX AVAILABLE AND NO TIME LINE FOR WHEN IT WILL BE AVAILABLE, THIS IS REALLY GETTING OLD, TIRED OF THE CONTINUING RUN AROUND. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT AT LEAST 5 TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. IN THE MEANTIME, I AM DRIVING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS VEHICLE AND NOT ABLE TO SELL THE VEHICLE WITH AN OUTSTANDING SAFETY RECALL.
