TAKATA RECALL FORD IS TAKEN TO LONG OF TIME TO FIX THIS RECALL. I'M FEARFUL OF THE AIRBAGS CAUSING HARM TO ME AND MY FAMILY. I WOULD LIKE THIS RESOLVED.

"TAKATA RECALL" BOUGHT THE FORD EDGE FROM A USED CAR DEALERSHIP IN SEPTEMBER 2016, WE WEREN'T NOTIFIED OR AWARE OF THE TAKATA RECALL AT ALL UNTIL MARCH OF THIS YEAR 2018 WHEN WE SAW IT ON THE NEWS. THEY STATED TIL THIS DAY AUGUST 18 2018 THEY HAVE NOT EVEN MANUFACTURE THE PART TO FIX THE TAKATA RECALL ON MY CAR. I SIT HERE WITH UNSAFE CAR AND MAKING CAR PAYMENTS ON SOMETHING I CAN'T USED. I NEED HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. I NO LONGER WANT TO CONTINUE WAITING AFTER 2 YEARS OF THIS MESS. I WANT FORD BUY THE CAR BACK AND GET THIS RESLOVED. I CAN'T CONTINUE TO WAIT TILL IT TIME FOR THEM TO FIX IT. PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS!

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT 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. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

AIRBAG RECALL - I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD MAY 2018 STATING THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS BEEN RECALLED. IN JUNE I SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE TO HAVE THE AIRBAG REPLACED. AFTER LEAVING MY CAR FOR A DAY AT THE DEALER I WAS INFORMED THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS YET. TODAY, AUGUST 15TH, 2018 I AM STILL UNABLE TO GET THE AIRBAG REPLACED AS THE FORD DEALER DOES NOT HAVE THE PARTS. I WAS INFORMED THEY MAY HAVE THEM BY SEPTEMBER 2018. HOW SERIOUS IS THIS FAILURE? SHOULD I NOT ALLOW ANYBODY IN MY PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THIS IS CORRECTED? WHOSE FAULT WILL IT BE IF MY CAR IS STRUCK AND SOMEBODY DIES DUE TO AIRBAG FAILURE?

"TAKATA RECALL" IT'S BEEN 2 YRS SINCE FIRST RECEIVING A NOTICE OF RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT STILL NO RESOLUTION. WHEN I CALL THE DEALER THEY SAY NO PARTS. GONNA BE TOO BAD IF A MEMBER OF MY FAMILY GETS HURTS FROM THIS MATTER.

WHEN THE AC IS RUNNING, THE CAR WILL STALL OUT. IT HAS HAPPENED IN TRAFFIC ON THE HIGH WAY AND SURBURBAN STREETS. WHEN IDLE AND IGNITION IS TURNED OFF THEN ON AGAIN, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. AFTER APPROX. 35-55 MINUTES THE CAR WILL THEN START. FINALLY, IT IS HAPPENING AFTER LONGER PERIODS OF TIME. I WAS PARKED IN A LOT FOR SEVERAL HOURS, WHEN I WENT TO START IT THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN OVER. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO MY HOUSE WHERE IT DID START AGAIN 1.5 HOURS LATER. I FEAR FOR MY CHILDREN'S LIVES.

"TAKATA RECALL" IN JUNE 2016 FORD (EDGE) ISSUED A RECALL FOR AIRBAGS, NO REMEDY HAS BEEN GIVEN AND IT NOW AUGUST 2018 AND NO REMEDY NOR TIME HAS BEEN GIVEN. THERE IS ALSO NO BUY BACK PROGRAM IN PLACE FOR THOSE WHO NO LONGER WANT THE DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. HOWEVER THEY ARE OFFERING A RENTAL IN ITS PLACE FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. I NO LONGER WANT THE VEHICLE BUT I AM PRETTY MUCH SUCK MAKING PAYMENTS ON A CAR THAT I CANT DRIVE.

COOLING - WE HAD REPAIRS DONE IN THE AIR & COOLANT . NOTHING WORKS IN THIS CAR. WE WENT TO FORD GRODY TO GET A RENTAL AS THEIR LETTER SPECIFIED BUT THERE IS A 130 ON THEIR WAITING LIST FOR A RENTAL CAR ( ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION) WE BEEN WAITING 3 YEARS. TILL NOW NO PARTS IS AVAILABLE YET
