IN JAN. 2018 I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD I CALLED CAPITAL FORD IN CARSON CITY NV I WAS TOLD THE PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER GAVE THEM MY NAME AND PHONE NUMBER, TOLD THEY WOULD CALL WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. THEY NEVER CALLED FEB. 2018 RECEIVED PHONE NOTICE ABOUT RECALL FROM FORD. CALLED CAPITAL FORD AGAIN ABOUT IT AND ASKED ABOUT LOANER CAR TILL IT COULD BE FIXED, I WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T HELP ME, AND HUNG UP. SAME DAY 2-16-18 I CALLED FORDS NUMBER ON RE,CALL NOTICE THEY CONTACTED CAPITAL FORD I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD CONTACT ME THAT DAY ABOUT SITUATION. CAPITAL FORD HAS NEVER RETURNED A CALL YET. YESTERDAY 2-22-18 I RECEIVED ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE THAT I SHOULD NOT OPERATE VEHICLE TILL REPAIRED. I CAPITAL NOT RECEIVED REPLIES TO ANY OF MY REQUEST FOR SERVICE A AND OR A LOANER VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL, WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS RECALL DONE FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW. THEY KEEP TELLING US THAT THE PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER. I HAVE RECEIVED NOTICES THAT SAY DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE. WE ARE A BUSINESS THAT DEPENDS ON THIS VEHICLE TO GET OUR JOB ACCOMPLISHED. WE CANNOT PARK THIS VEHICLE WITHOUT SOME SORT OF RENTAL PROVIDED BY THE DEALER. THEY HAVE TOLD US ON THIS LATEST ONE THAT IT WILL BE SOMETIME IN MARCH. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT WE ARE TOLD TO PARK OUR VEHICLE BUT IF WE HAD DONE SO EVEN FROM THIS LATEST RECALL NOTICE WE WOULD BE WITHOUT THIS VEHICLE FOR OVER A MONTH TO THIS POINT WITH NO GUARANTEE OF WHEN IT WOULD BE FIXED. THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY OF INFORMING CONSUMERS THAN TO SAY DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE BUT BY THE WAY WE WILL NOT KNOW HOW LONG YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DRIVE IT. THANKS

TAKATA RECALL GETTING NOTICES SINCE 2015 ON THIS ISSUE AND STILL NOTHING DONE. DEALER TELLS ME PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE.
