2009 LINCOLN MKZ Complaints

TAKATA RECALL: I AM FILING A COMPLAINT REGARDING THE CONTINUED DELAYS BY LINCOLN/FORD TO RESOLVE MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR APPX 2 YEARS AND IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. THE NHTSA NEEDS TO FORCE THEM TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE SOON, OR HAVE LINCOLN/FORD REPLACE THE VEHICLE. THEY ARE DRAGGING THEIR FEET. WE CONTINUE TO RECEIVE LETTERS THAT SAY THE SOLUTION IS COMING, BUT WE SEE NO TANGIBLE RESOLUTION AND THE DATE KEEPS GETTING PUSHED OUT.

TAKATA RECALL FIRST NOTIFIED JAN.2017, 2 MORE NOTIFICATIONS SINCE. DEALER CLAIMS NOTHING THEY CAN DO, NO CAR RENTALS AVAILABLE, NOT EVEN TAKING YOUR NAME
