ODO ERROR DATA ERROR WHILE DRIVING. ODOMETER STOPS WORKING, WRENCH LIGHT TURNS ON, THEN AIR BAG LIGHT. LOSS OF POWER, TRANSMISSION GETS STUCK IN GEAR. YOU CAN'T ACCELERATE AND HAVE TO CRUISE ON TO THE RIGHT TO PULL OVER. HAPPENED TWICE, ONCE ON THE FREEWAY. CODE GOES TO THE SPEED SENSOR WHICH CONTROLS THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING. AFTER YOU TURN OFF YOUR CAR AND TURN IT ON CODE RESETS HOWEVER CAR IS STUCK IN GEAR. AFTER A FEW HARD SHIFTS FINALLY GOES BACK INTO GEAR. FORD DEALERSHIP SAYS COMMON PROBLEM HOWEVER CAN'T FIGURE OUT IF ITS A HARNESS OR THE SENSORS. REPLACING SENSORS REQUIRES DROPPING THE TRANSMISSION.

TAKATA RECALL WAS ISSUED JUNE 1, 2016 AND THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER IS TAKING WAY TOO LONG TO PROVIDE REPLACEMENT PARTS. I HAVE CONTACTED EVERY DEALERSHIP WITHIN 50 MILES AND NONE OF THEM HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS. THE NHTSA SEARCH ALSO INDICATES THAT NO REPLACEMENT IS AVAILABLE YET. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND A REPLACEMENT NEEDS TO BE ISSUED IMMEDIATELY.

TAKATA RECALL - I JUST CHECKED THE STATUS ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE'S BEEN ANY NEW UPDATES AND THERE HASN'T. IT'S GOING ON A YEAR AND THE PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE IS WHAT I'M BEING TOLD WHEN I CALL FORD. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! WE'RE TAKING ABOUT AN AIRBAG WHICH IS PRETTY [XXX] IMPORTANT TO HAVE. TO HAVE TO HAVE PEOPLE SIT IN THE BACKSEAT IS A HUGE INCONVENIENCE ESPECIALLY IF YOU NEED ALL THE AVAILABLE SEATING IN THE CAR FOR YOUR FAMILY. OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUES HAVE BEEN FIXED MONTHS AGO WHY ARE FORD CUSTOMERS STILL WAITING ?!?!!
