TAKATA RECALL I JUST RECEIVED MY SECOND RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD ABOUT THE TAKATA RECALL. THE FIRST ONE ARRIVED OVER A YEAR AGO. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE REPAIR MADE. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE DEALER I WAS THEN TOLD THAT THERE WERE PARTS FOR ONLY HALF OF THE INFLATORS ON THE TRUCK. THEY WOULD MAKE THE REPAIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THAT THEY HAD THE PARTS FOR AND I WOULD HAVE TO BRING THE TRUCK BACK WHEN I RECEIVED NOTICE THAT THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. I JUST RECEIVED A SECOND NOTICE SAYING THAT BOTH INFLATORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE.
