CALLED MY DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THIS RECALL TAKEN CARE OF BUT THEY ARE ACTING LIKE IT IS NO BIG DEAL. THEY ARE SAYING THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS, CAN'T TELL ME WHEN THEY WILL BE IN, SAYING I WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN THE PARTS ARE IN. THEY ARE OFFERING NO ASSISTANCE WHATSOEVER. I WANT TO FIND OUT IF I AM IN DANGER AND THEY WON'T TELL ME THAT. THIS IS HOLLINGSWORTH FORD IN BATON ROUGE LA

TAKATA RECALL: I TOOK MY 2011 FORD RANGER TO KIRK BROTHERS FORD IN GREENWOOD, MS TO ARRANGE TO HAVE THE AIR BAG (S) REPAIRED. I WAS TOLD THE RECALL WAS FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG AND THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. THE COULD NOT GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. THIS INFORMATION DID NOT GIVE ME A WARM FUZZY FEELING. DO YOU HAVE A SUGGESTION FOR HOW I CAN GET THIS MATTER RESOLVED? THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE MADE FREQUENT CALLS TO A CERTIFIED DEALERSHIP; WAYNE AKERS FORD, IN REFERENCE TO THIS MATTER SINCE JULY 2016. MY MOST RECENT CONTACT WAS 10/30/2017. THEY DO NOT HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THIS RECALL PER THE SERVICE MANAGER BEN.

TAKATA RECALL - THIS RECALL HAS BEEN IN EFFECT FOR OVER A YEAR AND THERE ARE STILL NO REPAIR PARTS AVAILABLE. SHOULDN'T THE AIR BAG AT LEAST BE DISABLED TO PROTECT THE OCCUPANT? THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

RECEIVED NOTICE OF FAULTY AIR BAGS, BUT THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT RECEIVED THE PARTS, ETC TO REPLACE. VERIFIED FAULTY AIR BAGS VIA THE WEBSITE PROVIDED ON CHAPTER 11 NOTIFICATION.

TAKATA RECALL WE FIRST RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG IN JULY OF 2016. OUR FORD DEALER STILL HAS NO PARTS TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND IT IS INEXCUSABLE THAT NO PARTS ARE AVAILABLE A YEAR AND HALF LATER.

TAKATA RECALL - I AM STILL WAITING TO HAVE MY AIR BAG FIXED/REPLACED CAN WE PLEASE ESCALATE THIS REPAIR . I AM SCARED TO DEATH TO DRIVE MY TRUCK .
