2008 FORD MUSTANG Complaints

"TAKATA RECALL ", SAFETY RECALL 15S21 WAS COMPLETED ON 08/09/16, DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG, AT THE TIME I WAS ADVISED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE AND THAT I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN IT IS AVAILABLE, TO DATE I HAVE NOT BEEN SO ADVISED. PRESENTLY SAFETY RECALL 16S26 IS STILL ACTIVE AND I HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE THAT TAKATA HAS FILED CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY!

TAKATA RECALL. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR AND A HALF SINCE THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG WAS REPLACED AND I WAS TOLD THE PASSENGERS SIDE WOULD BE AVAILABLE A MONTH LATER. I HAVE CALLED MANY TIMES AND BEEN TOLD "NOT YET" WHEN ASKED IF THE REPLACEMENT WAS IN. NOW I GET A POST CARD SAYING TAKATA ARE FILING BANKRUPTCY. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND THAT OF PASSENGERS IN MY CAR. I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE.

TAKATA RECALL - IT IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE THAT SHRAPNEL COULD KILL ME INSTEAD OF THE ACCIDENT VIA AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT AND NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE OVER TWO YEARS LATER?? THIS NEEDS IMMEDIATE ACTION FOR REPLACEMENT!

TAKATA RECALL WAS IDENTIFIED TO BE A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG IN MY VEHICLE, 2008 FORD MUSTANG. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE IN 2016. ALMOST 1 AND HALF YEAR LATER THIS ISSUE HAS STILLBORN BEEN FIXED. THOUGH, AS STATED BY THE COMPANY THEMSELVES, THIS IS A LIFE AND DEATH SITUATION CREATED BY THIS CORPORATION.

TAKATA RECALL - IT'S BEEN OVER A YEAR SINCE I HAD THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG REPLACED. I RECEIVED NOTICE ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IN JULY 2016 THAT SAID THE PARTS WERE NOT YET AVAILABLE. HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING FROM THEM SINCE.

TAKATA RECALL - OVER A YEAR AGO, IN JULY 2016 I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR MAY RESULT IN METAL FRAGMENTS STRIKING VEHICLE OCCUPANTS CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. I NEVER RECEIVED A FOLLOW UP LETTER, BUT RECENTLY GOT A NOTICE ON OCTOBER 26, 2017 THAT TK HOLDINGS AND COMPANY AFFILIATES ARE FILING CHAPTER 11. I CALLED THE PALM BAY, FLORIDA FORD DEALER, WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR, INQUIRING AS WHEN THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID NOT KNOW AND SAID I HAD AS MUCH KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE RECALL AS THEY DID. I CHECKED THE WWW.AIRBAGRECALL.COM WEB SITE LISTED ON THE TAKATA NOTICE AND FOUND OUT THAT THE REPAIR WAS INCOMPLETE ON MY CAR BECAUSE THE "REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE". IT HAS BEEN OVER 15 MONTH AND NO RESOLUTION FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL. DOESN'T FORD HAVE A DUTY TO FIND AN ALTERNATIVE SUPPLIER IN A TIMELY MANNER?

TAKATA RECALL, IT IS NOW GOING ON A YEAR AND A HALF AND SINCE RECALL AND NO REPLACEMENT AIRBAG.

TAKATA RECALL. DRIVER SIDE WAS FIXED, PASSENGER SIDE IS NOT. THE DEALER CANNOT GET THE PARTS
