TAKATA RECALL LOCAL DEALER SAID THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY WILL GET REPLACEMENT COULD BE SEVERAL MONTH ON MORE IS THIS CORRECT DEALER SAID SOMETHING ABOUT OUR LOCATION BEING IN A LOW PRORITY AREA THAT DOES NOT SOUND CORRECT IS IT

I RECEIVED THE ATTACHED RECALL NOTICE IN JULY 2016 FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY CONCERNING A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG INFLATOR. TO DATE, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY FURTHER NOTIFICATION FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF THE PART AND INSTRUCTIONS ON WHAT TO DO IN ORDER TO REMEDY THIS DANGEROUS CONDITION. I HAVE CONTACTED THE FORD DEALERSHIP, AUTO NATION IN MARIETTA, GEORGIA, A NUMBER OF TIMES TO DETERMINE THE STATUS OF THIS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE PART IS NOT YET AVAILABLE. CONSIDERING THE DANGEROUS CONDITION THAT THEY DESCRIBE IN THE RECALL NOTICE, I CERTAINLY THINK THAT THIS HAS DRAGGED ON MUCH TOO LONG, AND I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT THE DANGER OF DEATH OR SEVERE INJURY.

I CALLED A FORD DEALER FROM YOUR SITE TO GET THE AIR BAGS FIXED FROM THE RECALL BUT THEY SAID THEY AREN'T READY YET AND HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY WILL BE AVAILABLE? SO I HAVE FAULTY AIR BAGS IN MY CAR BUT THERE IS NO SOLUTION TO GET THEM FIXED YET? I AM CONFUSED...HOW CAN I GET THIS RECALL FIXED?

WHILE EXITING ONTO RAMP FROM EXPRESSWAY ON WET PAVEMENT, I APPLIED MY BRAKES TO SLOW THE CAR. I DROVE OVER AN UNEVEN ROAD SURFACE AND MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. AS A RESULT, I NEEDED INCREASED DISTANCE TO STOP MY CAR. IF I NEEDED TO STOP FOR TRAFFIC OR A TRAFFIC SIGNAL THIS INCIDENT WOULD HAVE RESULTED INTO AN ACCIDENT. MY BRAKE PEDAL RETURNED TO NORMAL SOMETIME LATER. I HAVE HAD THREE SIMILAR INCIDENTS HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING MY CAR OVER AN UNEVEN ROAD SURFACE ( WET OR DRY) MY BRAKE PEDAL TURNS SOFT AND GOES TO FLOOR. AS A RESULT INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE WAS NEEDED. MY BRAKE PEDAL ALWAYS RETURN TO NORMAL SOMETIME LATER.

I HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER DATED JULY 2016 AND NO ACTION BY THE DEALER OR FORD MOTOR COMPANY....NONE, ZERO NOT EVEN A EXPLANATION FROM THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHAT HAPPENED TO THE RECALL FOR THE "AIR BAG" REPLACEMENT. IF THIS IS A TROUBLED VEHICLE I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ACTION AND A REPLACEMENT OF THE VEHICLE MY RECALL NUMBER IS 16S26. FORD MUST HAVE AN ANSWER....
