"TAKATA RECALL" - AFTER ALMOST 2 YEARS, MY AUTO DEALER SAYS THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO REPAIR/REPLACE AND PERFORM THE RECALL. IS THIS NOT A EXCESSIVE TIME TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM?

TAKATA RECALL - TO DATE THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM. WE ARE IN DANGER BY NOT BEING ABLE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. SOME SORT OF REPAIR SHOULD BE AVAILABLE INSTEAD OF HAVING TO WAIT ON PARTS.

MY 2009 MKX HAS SCARED THE HECK OUT OF US AS WE THOUGHT A BOMB HAD GONE OFF, FOLLOWED BY THE HIGH-PITCHED WHINE WHICH ONLY STOPPED AFTER WE TURNED THE CAR OFF AND OPEN A DOOR FOR IT TO RESET ITSELF. WE WERE DRIVING WITH KIDS IN THE BACK ASLEEP,, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WENT OFF AND WE COULDN'T STAND IT. TURNING THE RADIO OFF DIDN'T HELP, TURNING THE AC OFF DIDN'T HELP EITHER. WE WERE FORCED TO PULLED OVER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. SINCE THEN I CAN NOT TRUST MY CAR WON'T GO OFF AND CAUSE ME TO HIT ANOTHER CAR OR GOD FORBID SOMETHING ELSE. IT USUALLY HAPPENS IN THE HOTTER MONTHS FOR THE LAST 3 - 4 YEARS. I'VE TRIED TO FIND CORRELATION TO SOMETHING, AND ALL I CAN THINK OFF IS THE HEAT CAUSING IT TO GO OFF.

"TAKATA RECALL" - LETTER RECEIVED FROM LINCOLN MOTOR CO. THAT AIRBAGS COULD EXPLODE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH THAT CAUSES THE DEPLOY OF AIRBAGS. WE WOULD BE NOTIFIED WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. NO CALLS FROM THE COMPANY. I HAVE CALLED NUMEROUS TIMES DURING THE LAST SIX MONTHS, STILL PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. LINCOLN SENT AN UPDATE IN MAY 2018 THAT WE COULD RENT A VEHICLE UP TO $45 PER DAY. I DO NOT WANT TO RENT A VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY FOR AN UNKNOWN AMOUNT OF MONTHS. I HAVE FINISHED PAYING FOR A VEHICLE THAT COULD HAVE KILLED MY FAMILY. WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG FOR THE PARTS TO COME IN? ALSO, WE WERE DECEIVED, BECAUSE WE WERE NEVER TOLD THAT IF DEPLOYED, THE AIRBAGS COULD EXPLODE CAUSING DEATH TO THE PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE. I BOUGHT THE MKX BRAND NEW IN 2009 - SO FROM 2009 TO 2018 MY FAMILY WAS IN DANGER. WE NEED HELP!
