TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED THIS RECALL NOTICE WAY OVER A YEAR AGO, AND HAVE BEEN RELUCTANT T O TRAVEL WITH SOMEONE IN THE FRONT, PASSENGER SEAT OF MY CAR SINCE READING THAT IT CAN POTENTIALLY EXPLODE IF THE AIR BAGS WERE TO BE DEPLOYED. LIKE I SAID, I GOT THIS OVER A YEAR AGO AND HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM FORD (I EVEN CALLED MANY TIMES)... AND A YEAR SEEMS LIKE MORE THAN ENOUGH TIME TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS.
