2010 FORD FUSION Complaints

RECEIVED RECALL LETTER FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY IN JULY 2016 FOR DEFECTIVE PASSENGER AIR BAG ADVISING IT WAS TO BE REPLACED AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY WHEN TO BRING IT IN FOR REPLACEMENT. TO DATE (11/02/17), A YEAR AND 1/2 LATER NO COMMUNICATION HAS BEEN RECEIVED FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY. FRONT SEAT PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE, WHICH AT TIMES INCLUDES MYSELF, CONTINUE TO RISK INJURY AND/OR THE POSSIBILITY OF DEATH. THE STRESS AND ANXIETY OF THIS CONTINUED LACK OF RESOLUTION OF THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO END. I DO NOT FEEL MY VEHICLE IS SAFE.

TAKATA RECALL THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON IN THE VEHICLE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. I TOOK IT TO GARAGE AND THEY REPLACE SOME PARTS WITH THE BUT WERE UNABLE TO FIX AIRBAG PROBLEM. I PAID $411.00 FOR THIS SERVICE. I CALLED FORD WHEN I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016. THEY STATED THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THE RECALL. I TOOK IT TO THE SAME FORD DEALER AND THEY DID NOT HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS TO FIX IT. THIS WAS IN NOVEMBER 2016. I WAS TOLD I WOULD HEAR FROM THE DEALER WHEN PARTS BECAME AVAILABLE. UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE LIGHT REMAINS ON. I HAVE NEVER HEARD FROM FORD DEALER AND MY CALL NOT RETURNED.

I CONTACTED MY FORD DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE FROM & WAS ADVISED THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR THE AIRBAG SYSTEM YET. I WAS RE-ENDED BREAKING AT A ROUND A BOUT IN FEB. & THE AIRBAG NEVER WENT OFF. I GOT WHIPLASH & A CONCUSSION FROM THE BLOW OF BEING HIT.

TAKATA RECALL. THIS RECALL TOOK EFFECT WELL OVER A YEAR AGO AND THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY FOR IT. WE CAN HARDLY USE THIS CAR BECAUSE WE FEEL UNSAFE HAVING ANYONE SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT.

AIR BAG RECALL BY FORD IN 2016 DEALER IS TELLING ME NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AND THERE IS NO PROJECTED DATE WHEN THE PARTS TO CORRECT WILL BE AVAILABLE. I RECEIVED A LEGAL NOTICE THE TAKATA IS GOING INTO CHAPTER 11 AND FORD STILL HAS NO PARTS FOR 1.5 YEARS TO REPAIR MY CAR

TAKATA RECALL - IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL AFFECTS MY CAR. FORD HAS NOT YET MADE A RECALL AVAILABLE FOR THE 2010 FORD FUSION.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE STEERING LOCK UP AND I HIT A CURB. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS NOT IN ANY TRAFFIC. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE ELECTRIC STEERING ON THESE CARS AND NOT SURE WHY FORD WANT FIX THE ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GET HURT.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A LETTER IN JULY 2016 INFORMING ME OF A RECALL ON MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS. THE LETTER MAKERS IT APPEAR AS THOUGH THIS IS A SERIOUS, LIFE-THREATENING ISSUE, BUT I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL FORD DEALERSHIPS OVER THE LAST YEAR AND THEY ALL CLAIM THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS OF TAKATA TO FIX IT. TODAY I RECEIVED A LETTER INFORMING ME THAT TAKATA HAS FILED CHAPTER 11 AND THAT I REALLY NEED TO GET IT RESOLVED. I CALLED A DEALERSHIP TODAY AND THEY ONCE AGAIN CLAIMED NOT TO HAVE THE PARTS. WHAT IS THE POINT OF SENDING ME ALL OF THESE WARNINGS IF I CANT GET IT FIXED? IF THE POINT IS THAT I SHOULDNT BE DRIVING MY CAR UNTIL ITS FIXED THEN THEY SHOULD BE GIVING ME A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE.

DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE. I TRIED TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE AND SOMETHING SNAPPED AND I WAS TRAPPED IN MY CAR UNTIL I FIGURED OUT THAT I COULD ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW AND OPEN IT FROM THE OUTSIDE HANDLE. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY IN MY GARAGE WHEN IT HAPPENED.

TAKATA RECALL -- SINCE MID 2016 I HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS RECALL NOTIFICATIONS AND ALWAYS CHECK WITH FORD DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND AM ALWAYS TOLD THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE AND THAT NO ONE KNOWS WHEN THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE. I MOST RECENTLY RECEIVED LEGAL NOTICE FROM TK HOLDINGS THAT I SHOULD TAKE MY VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY FOR FREE RECALL REPAIR AND THAT I MUST DO SO BEFORE 12/31/17. I CALLED LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP TO MAKE APPOINTMENT FOR REPAIRS AND WAS TOLD THAT REPAIR PARTS ARE STILL BEING TESTED AND THAT NO ONE KNOWS WHEN THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT ACTION IS BEING TAKEN BY NHTSA TO PROTECT THE SAFETY OF OWNERS OF ALL VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THESE TAKATA AIRBAGS. IT IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHY FORD AND/OR TAKATA HAVE NOT BEEN FORCED TO MAKE REPAIRS. DOES ANYONE CARE ABOUT THE VEHICLE OWNERS THAT ARE STUCK WITH THESE SORRY AIRBAGS?
