TAKATA RECALL. NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: 16V384. MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: 16S26. THE AIRBAG FAULT INDICATOR IS ON IN THE VEHICLE. I CALLED THE LOCAL FORD AND LINCOLN DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE RECALL RIGHT NOW. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR MORE THAN A YEAR NOW.

SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AFFECTING MANY LINCOLN MODELS. COULDN'T OPEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND HAD TO CRAWL OUT TO THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS IS DANGEROUS IN THE EVENT OF A CAR CRASH. SO MANY VIDEOS ON THE WEB OF THIS PROBLEM. THIS MODEL YEAR SHOULD ALSO BE INCLUDED IN THE DOOR LOCK RECALL. HUGE INCONVENIENCE CRAWLING IN FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE, BUT AT LEAST I'M SMALL. I SURE WOULD FEEL SORRY FOR A BIGGER PERSON. MY VEHICLE WAS ALSO ASSEMBLED AT THE SAME PLANT DURING THE YEAR THE OTHER CARS WERE AFFECTED.

"TAKATA RECALL", FOR 2 YEARS I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING INFO. REGARDING THIS RECALL AND FOR 2 YEARS HAVE BEEN CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP, TO HEAR THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER THAT THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO REPLACE THIS AIRBAG, SO HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO GET KILLED FROM THIS BEFORE THE PROBLEM IS RESOLVED. SOME ONE RAN A STOP SIGN AND RAN INTO MY CAR GOOD THING THE AIR BAG DID NOT GO OFF SINCE MY GRANDDAUGHTER WAS SEATED IN THE PASSANGER SEAT. COME ON PEOPLE TEND TO THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL. JUST COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SITUATION NOT REPORTING THE ACCIDENT, THERE FOR THE DATE LISTED BELOW IS THE DAY THAT I SENT THIS IN.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 LINCOLN MKZ. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS). THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED.

WHEN SHIFTING INTO "PARK" THERE IS A WARNING THAT APPEARS ON THE DASH AS "SHIFT TO PARK". THE "P" INDICATOR LIGHT WILL NOT ILLUMINATE AND DOES NOT ENGAGE SAFETY FEATURES ASSOCIATED WITH PLACING THE VEHICLE IN "PARK". THIS ALSO CAUSES THE DISPLAY TO STAY ON AND DRAINS THE BATTERY IF NOT CORRECTED. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE ADDRESSED ON TSB 15-0047 BUT SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL AS IT COULD LEAD TO A STRANDED MOTORIST.

TAKATA RECALL WE HAVE RECEIVED MULTIPLE NOTICES OF THE RECALL BUT NO NOTICE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE IN FOR THE NEEDED REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT.
