My vehicle has a safety recall for a possible exploding driver airbag, recall number 21V158. This recall was issued 3/25/21, about 10 months ago, and the manufacturer still does not have a fix for it. This is unacceptable given the severity of the recall. The NHTSA website states that if the manufacturer has not remedied a recall in a reasonable amount of time, then a vehicle complaint should be submitted. In my mind, 10 months is an unreasonable amount of time. I hope that the NHTSA can put additional pressure on Ford/Lincoln to remedy this recall ASAP.

TAKATA RECALL. MY AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT REMAINS ON. BASED ON RESEARCH IT INDICATES THAT MY FRONT AIRBAGS MAY NOT ACTIVATE DURING AN ACCIDENT. THIS LIGHT APPEARED A FEW WEEKS AGO. THIS IS CONCERNING AS I OFTEN TRAVEL WITH SMALL CHILDREN AND MAKES ME WONDER ABOUT THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE IN THE CAR. UNABLE TO SALE CAR DUE TO THIS ISSUE. I DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR A REPAIR IN WHICH THE MAKERS OF TAKATA INFLATORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRING.

"TAKATA RECALL" - I DO NOT WANT THEM TO EXPODE SO I WOULD LIKE TO GET THEM FIXED IF POSSIBLE.
