2010 FORD EDGE Complaints

TAKATA RECALL WITH STILL NO REMEDY AVAILABLE, IT'S BEEN YEARS! I LIVE WHERE 90% HUMIDITY IS A REGULAR DAY. NHTSA HAS TAKEN OVER MANAGEMENT OF THE RECALLS TO MAKE SURE REPLACEMENT INFLATORS GET TO HIGH-HUMIDITY AREAS ALONG THE GULF COAST FIRST. WHEN IS NHTSA GOING TO GET THIS DONE?

TAKATA RECALL - NHTSA # 16V384 - MY 2010 FORD EDGE WAS RECALLED IN JUNE 2016. AFTER OVER 1 YEAR, THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY OR REPLACEMENT FOR MY PASSENGER AIRBAG. LAST YEAR, I WAS TOLD THE PARTS COULD BE IN BY DECEMBER 2016, AND MY DEALER WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN IT WAS IN. I AM STILL TOLD THAT PARTS HAVE NOT COME IN. THIS IS NOT HANDLING THE MATTER IN A TIMELY MANNER. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT, LET ALONE HAVING PASSENGERS IN MY CAR.

I'VE BEEN CALLING FOR MONTHS & MONTHS TO HAVE THIS RECALL FIXED. I'M ALWAYS TOLD THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I NEED TO HAVE THIS FIXED!! IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. FORD SHOULD FIND A SOLUTION FOR THIS PROBLEM OR OFFER TO REPLACE THE CAR AT NO COST TO ME. I FEAR THAT IF THIS PART IS NOT REPLACED, THAT MY FAMILY MAY BE HARMED BY THE RUPTURED INFLATOR.
