AFTER OVER 2 YEARS I HAVEN BEEN ABLE TO GET MY AIRBAG REPLACED EVEN THOUGHT IT WAS TO BE REPLACED BY THE END OF SEPTEMBER 2018. THE DEALER SHIP I'M WORKING WITH CONTINUES TO HELP ME. FORD CO. SENT ME A LETTER TELLING ME I WAS ENTITLED TO A FREE RENTAL UNTIL MY CAR HAS BEEN REPLACED. THE REFUSE TO HELP ME WITH THIS ALSO SAYING THIS PROCESS TAKES SEVERAL WEEKS TO GET ME INTO A RENTAL. IT HAS NOW BEEN 2 WEEKS SINCE I REQUESTED A RENTAL AND THEY CONTINUE TO GIVE THE RUNAROUND HOPING I WILL GIVE UP. CAN THE NTSB HELP ME?

DRIVING AND OUT OF NO WHERE, RECEIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT SAYS "ODO DATA ERROR", THE CAR HOLDS THE CURRENT SPEED BUT IT'S VERY APPARENT THAT SOMETHING IS OFF AS THE CAR IS NOW MAKING A HUMMING/AIR PRESSURE SOUND (SPEEDOMETER & TACHOMETER STOPS WORKING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS) WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE WRENCH, AIRBAG, ABS, STABILITY CONTROL INDICATOR AND ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATE. WITHIN 5 MINUTES NEW ERROR APPEARS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR FAULT). ONCE YOU HAVE PRESSED THE BRAKES AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR IS EXTREMELY HESITANT TO ACCELERATE EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL PUSHED COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR IT DOESN'T GAIN POWER UNTIL IT HAS ROLLED ABOUT 15-20 FEET AND AT THAT POINT THERE IS A EXTREMELY LOUD BANG WHICH MAKES YOU THINK THE ENTIRE UNDERBELLY OF THE CAR HAS FALLEN OUT. AT THAT POINT IT REGAINS SPEED AGAIN, BUT IF YOU STOP IT DOES THE SAME THING ALL OVER. SWITCHING GEARS RESULT IN A LOUD BANG AND JERKING ACTION OF THE CAR WITH LITTLE TO NO ACCELERATION POWER. TEMPORARY REMEDY IS TO PULL OVER TURN CAR OFF WAIT A MINUTE OR TWO THEN RESTART THE CAR. AT THAT POINT WHEN SWITCHING GEARS THE BANG AND JERK HAPPEN AGAIN WITH THE CAR SLOW TO ACCELERATE FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN IT TAKES OFF LIKE A RACE HORSE. SOMETIMES THIS REMEDIES IT WHILE OTHER TIMES THE SAME PROCESS IS REPEATED MULTIPLE TIMES WITHIN ONE TRIP. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON CITY STREETS AND MAJOR EXPRESSWAYS AT SPEEDS OF 35 MPH TO 60 MPH. FIRST STARTED EXPERIENCING THE ISSUE AT ABOUT 170K MILES AND HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR WITH NO SOLUTIONS FROM MECHANICS. IF A MECHANIC WITH EQUIPMENT/COMPUTERS CAN'T REMEDY A REPAIR AND SEEING HOW THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE FORD SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO REPAIR ANY COMPONENTS THAT COULD TRIGGER THE ISSUE. THIS IS PURE NEGLIGENCE SEEING THAT THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS. MY OPINION IS IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND COMPUTER SYSTEM.

TAKATA RECALL ---- STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL. THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED 2 YEARS AGO AND I WAS TOLD THE PARTS WE NOT AVAILABLE. IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED YET. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AS WELL AS MY FAMILY AS PASSENGERS.

TAKATA RECALL--I WAS SENT A RECALL NOTICE #16V-384 IN JULY OF 2016. THE VEHICLE IS NOT TO HAVE ANY PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BECAUSE OF METAL FRAGMENTS WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. I HAVE CALLED MANY TIMES ABOUT THE FIX AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THE NEXT QUARTER THEY WILL HAVE THE REPAIRS. THAT QUARTER GOES AND IT WILL BE IN THE NEXT QUARTER. IT HAS NOW WENT ALMOST 2.5 YEARS. IT MAKES THE VEHICLE NOT VERY USEFUL WHEN YOU CAN'T USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. FORD NEEDS TO GET THIS RESOLVED. I HAVE BEEN VERY PATIENT.
