2008 FORD EDGE Complaints

TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED LETTER JULY 2016 STATING "ON YOUR VEHICLE THE FRONTAL AIRBAG MAY RUPTURE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH NECESSITATING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. A REPTURED INFLATOR MAY RESULT IN METAL FRAGMENTS STRIKING VEHICLE OCCUPANTS CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH." I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT MY CAR AND WHERE I GET MY CAR SERVICED ONCE A MONTH SINCE JULY OF 2016 AND SPOKEN WITH MIKE ROMANO WHEN HE WILL TAKE MY CALL. RICHMOND FORD LINCOLN. 4600 WEST BROAD STREET. I HAVE BEEN MISLEAD, LIED TO, CALLS NOT RETURNED AS PROMISED. FOR FIFTEEN MONTHS I HAVE AN EXPENSIVE VEHICLE IN WHICH THE PASSESNGER SIDE CANNOT BE USED. TO DO SO WOULD BE LIKE PLAYING RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH SOMEONE'S LIFE. I NEED AS I HAVE FOR THE LAST 15 MONTHS FOR MY CAR TO BE REPAIRED AND SOMEONE TO TAKE THIS VERY SCARY RECALL SERIOUSLY.

TAKATA RECALL WE HAVE TRIED NUMEROUS TIMES TO HAVE AIRBAGS FIXED BUT DEALERSHIPS TELL US THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE PARTS TO FIX AIRBAGS IN THE TAKATA RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER IN JULY 2016. I JUST CALLED THE FORD DEALER, AND THEY SAID THERE ARE STILL NO AIRBAGS AVAILABLE FOR THIS RECALL. MY QUESTION IS WHAT IS A TIMELY MANNER? I WAITED OVER A YEAR AND 3 MONTHS AND STILL NO REPLACEMENT. IF THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL, FORD AND ITS VENDORS ARE NOT MAKING EFFORTS TO FIX THIS. IN FACT I THINK TAKATA AND FORD ARE REALLY NOT CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY...

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE HAD A RECALL LETTER FROM FORD SINCE JULY 2016 AND CANNOT GET THE RECALL COMPLETED. LOCAL DEALERSHIP NOW CLAIMS THAT I WILL BE AT THE END OF THE PROCESS BECAUSE OF LOWER HUMIDITY HERE THAN OTHER AREAS WHERE RECALL NEEDS TO BE PERFORMED. DEALERSHIP ALSO CLAIMS REPLACEMENT FACTORY (TO MAKE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG SYSTEM) BURNED DOWN. I HAVE NOT HAD A WRECK TO CAUSE THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY, BUT AM WORRIED ABOUT WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF THIS IS NOT REMEDIED SOON. I HAVE NOW RECEIVED NOTICE THAT TAKATA HAS FILED BANKRUPTCY.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES TO HAVE THE RECALL DONE AND THEY TELL ME THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILIBALE YET. I WANT THE AIRBAGS REPLACED BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS. WHAT CAN I DO TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM? CAN YOU HELP?

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART FOR THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE RAN A RED LIGHT AND CRASHED INTO THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CONTACT CALLED AL SPITZER FORD (3737 STATE RD, CUYAHOGA FALLS, OH 44223; 888-453-7520) AND (PARK FORD, 14522 WOODWARD AVE, HIGHLAND PARK, MI 48203). BOTH DEALERS STATED THAT THEY WERE UNAWARE OF WHEN PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. *BF UPDATED 8/6/18*JB

TAKATA RECALL #16S26/NHTSA RECALL 16V-384 I HAVE CALLED TO SEE IF THE REPLACEMENT IS AVAILABLE AND AM BEING TOLD THAT THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME AND WITH TAKATA FILING CHAPTER 11 THERE WILL HAVE TO BE ANOTHER COMPANY TO MAKE THE REPLACEMENT SO I GET TO WAIT IN LIMBO UNTIL THIS HAPPENS. RIDICULOUS! I WANT MY FAMILY PROTECTED THE SOONER THE BETTER.

TAKATA RECALL- DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE-RECALL WAS OVER A YEAR AGO AND THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE; THIS SEEMS DANGEROUS WITH THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY A RECENT NOTE ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF TK HOLDINGS GOING BANKRUPT.

TAKATA RECALL JUNE 01,2016 FORD DEALERSHIP CLAIMS PARTS ARE BEING DELIVER TO LOCAL DEALERS!!!!

TAKATA RECALL CONTACTED GRANBURY,TX FORD DEALERSHIP IN THE SPRING OF 2016. AND WAS TOLD TO WAIT FOR RECALL LETTER. NEVER RECEIVED ANY LETTER. CONTACTED GRANBURY FORD DEALERSHIP AGAIN OCTOBER 2017, WAS TOLD PARTS STILL NOT AVAILABLE.
