TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET MY PASSENGER AIRBAG REPLACED SINCE THE RECALL CAME OUT IN FEBRUARY AND I HAVE BEEN BLOWN OFF 3 TIMES BY THE DEALERSHIP. THE FIRST TIME I CALLED I WAS TOLD BY A SERVICE DEPT. REP THAT THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PARTS IN MARCH AND TO CALL BACK IN 5 WEEKS IF THEY DID NOT CALL ME. AT THE BEGINNING OF MAY I CALLED AND I WAS TOLD THEY HAD NO RECORD OF ME CALLING AND TALKING TO ANYONE AT THE DEALERSHIP. THEY ONCE AGAIN TOOK MY INFORMATION AND I TALK WITH A MARISSA. AGAIN I WAS ASKED TO CHECK BACK IN A MONTH IF I WAS NOT CONTACTED. LAST WEEK I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND ONCE AGAIN I WAS TOLD THAT NOBODY HAD ORDERED THE PARTS. THIS TIME SOMEONE NAMED CARLA TOOK MY INFORMATION AND SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO COME INTO SURPRISE FORD DEALERSHIP AT 7AM TO GET MY TRUCK FIXED ONLY TO FIND OUT FROM THEM THAT I WAS NOT IN THE SYSTEM AND NO PARTS WERE ORDERED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE A SERVICE CENTER IN FLORIDA ANSWER THE PHONES WHEN THEY ARE BUSY AND THEY NEVER SET UP ANYTHING. NOW ALMOST 6 MONTHS AFTER THE RECALL I HAVE YET TO GET ANY ACTION DONE ON MY TRUCK NOT FROM MY PART. THIS IS REALLY A MESSED UP SYSTEM AND A WASTE OF MY TIME FOR NOTHING. SOMETHING SHOULD BE BROUGHT AND DONE TO THIS DEALERSHIP AND OTHERS IF THEY OPERATE THIS WAY. IT COMES ACROSS AS THOUGH THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THE RECALL UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE.

TAKATA RECALL. AFTER RECEIVING A RECALL NOTICE I PROMPTLY WENT TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER (ANDY SHAW FORD IN SYLVA, NC) IN FEBRUARY 2019. AFTER MORE THAN A MONTH THEY TOLD ME TO COME IN AND THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT. I CONTINUE TO RECEIVE RECALL NOTICES, ALMOST THREE MONTHS AFTER THEY SAID IT WAS REPAIRED (3/28/19). HOW DO I GO ABOUT DETERMINING WHETHER THE AIRBAG WAS ACTUALLY REPLACED OR NOT?

CALLED DEALER (SUNSHINE FORD-NEWBURG,NY) AND GOT AN APPOINTMENT FOR 3/19/2019, BUT THEY CANCELLED BECAUSE THE BAG DIDN'T ARRIVE. I WAS TOLD I WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN THEY RECEIVED ONE. I GOT A SECOND NOTICE IN APRIL AND CALLED SUNSHINE BACK. THEY AGAIN SAID THEY WOULD CALL WHEN THE BAG ARRIVED. I GOT A POSTCARD FROM FORD, SO I CALLED AND EXPLAINED MY SITUATION. I WAS PUT ON HOLD WHILE THEY TRIED TO CALL THE DEALER. THEY TRIED TWO TIMES WHEN I WAS HOLDING BUT NO ONE ANSWERED. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY SPOKE WITH SUNSHINE, THAT WAS 5/21, I STILL HAVEN'T HEARD. NOW I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM NY STATE DEPT. OF MOTOR VEHICLES TELLING ME IT IS URGENT. WHAT MORE CAN I DO?
