TAKATA RECALL IN MARCH OF 2017 I RECEIVED A LETTER BY MAIL FROM THE LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY ALERTING ME OF AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL. IN OCTOBER OF 2017 I RECEIVED A LEGAL NOTICE BY MAIL FROM TK HOLDINGS INC. INSTRUCTING ME TO CONTACT MY NEAREST DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY TO SCHEDULE A FREE REPAIR. I LOOKED FURTHER INTO THE MATTER VIA WWW.AIRBAGRECALL.COM TO VERIFY THE STATUS OF THIS RECALL ONLY TO DISCOVER "RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE." THE REASON FOR THIS FORMAL COMPLAINT IS SIMPLE. I USE THIS VEHICLE AS MY DAILY DRIVER, MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, WITH PASSENGERS. I AM SIMPLY CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, OTHER POTENTIAL PASSENGERS AND MYSELF. I REGISTERED MY EMAIL ADDRESS WITH TKRESTRUCTURING.COM/PPIC TO HOPEFULLY BE KEPT INFORMED ON THE MATTER. I BELIEVE 10 MONTHS TIME FROM WHEN THE RECALL WAS RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC IS ENTIRELY TOO LONG TO ALLOW CUSTOMERS TO OPERATE A POTENTIALLY LETHAL VEHICLE WITHOUT REMEDY. I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT I RECEIVE QUICK AND JUST ACTION TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE A LIFE ALTERING EVENT COULD TAKE PLACE. THANK YOU FOR, THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS MY CONCERN, AS WELL AS YOUR TIME AND EFFORT. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
