EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING FOR ALL PARTIES INVOLVED. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR NOW & STILL UNABLE TO USE THE VEHICLE.

RE: NHTSA RECALL 16V-384: IN JULY 2016 FORD ANNOUNCED A RECALL BUT NEVER HAD THE PARTS READY. IN DECEMBER 2017 FORD SENT A LETTER STATING THAT THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR THE PARTS. THEY ALSO SUGGEST NOT TO USE THE PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS FIXED. THIS IS A JOKE. IF THAT ISSUE IS SO RELEVANT TO SECURITY, HOW CAN FORD AFFORD TO DO NOTHING OVER AN 18 MONTH PERIOD. ALSO, HOW CAN THEY SUGGEST THAT WE NOT USE THE PASSENGER SEAT (OTHER THAN TO COVER LEGAL EXPOSURE). ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BUY ANOTHER CAR TO BE ABLE TO TRAVEL TOGETHER??

"TAKATA RECALL" I HAVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO HAVE THE PART REPLACED FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAGS AT PLATTSBURGH FORD DEALERSHIP IN PLATTSBURGH, NY 12901 BUT THEY CLAIM THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE.

ONE YEAR LATER WE ARE STILL WAITING. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM. BUT WAITING ONE YEAR SEEMS EXCESSIVE.

TAKATA RECALL .THE RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED ON JUNE 1 2016 WHY IS IT THAT PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE 2 MONTHS LATER. THIS A HOLD UP AND PREVENTS ME FROM DRIVING MY VEHICLE.

HIGHWAY CRASH AT 75 MPH. THE MUSTANG HIT A VEHICLE THAT JUMPED THE MEDIAN . NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT . I NEVER HAD A WARNING LIGHT OR ANY INDICATION THAT THE SRS SYSTEM WAS AT FAULT . THIS MUSTANG HAD A FULL FRONTAL IMPACT . I DID CONTACT FORD ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND I WAS TOLD { YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO LITIGATE A CASE AGAINST US } I WOULD HAVE TO PROVE THAT IF THE AIRBAGS DID DEPLOY MY INJURY'S WOULD OF BEEN LESS SERIOUS . I DID BRAKE MY NECK FROM THE IMPACT .I'M SURE THE AIRBAG WOULD HAVE HELPED ME...

THE FORD RECALL DUE TO POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUES WITH THE TAKATA AIRBAGS IS QUITE RESTRICTIVE AND NOT APPROPRIATE TO THIS MATTER. I PURCHASED MY CAR IN HAWAII AND SINCE 2005, HAVE LIVED IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, SOUTHERN ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO. NEVERTHELESS, WHEN I MADE THE APPOINTMENT WITH A FORD DEALERSHIP IN NEW MEXICO, EVEN THOUGH I LISTED THE REASON FOR MY REQUESTED SERVICE, I ONLY WAS TOLD ABOUT THIS RESTRICTION AFTER DRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WOULD HAVE BEEN WILLING TO PAY A NOMINAL FEE TO HAVE THESE AIRBAGS REPLACED BUT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS UNWILLING TO LISTEN. THIS IS THE SECOND "SAFETY" MATTER FOR THIS CAR THAT HAS BEEN RAISED BY FORD THAT THEY HAVE REFUSED TO ADDRESS (THE FIRST BEING A FRONT SUSPENSION MATTER) AND I'M NOT PLEASED. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE AND IF THE NHTSA IS HAVING HEARINGS ON THIS MATTER, I WOULD ENCOURAGE THE COMMITTEE TO CONSIDER EXPANDING THE FORD RECALL TO ALL CARS WITH THESE AIRBAGS. *TR

ALL DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS SHOULD BE REPLACED. CURRENTLY NHTSA HAS ONLY RECALLED CARS SOLD OR REGISTERED IN FL, HA, PUERTO RICO, & U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. IT HAS BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED AND KILLED DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS IN SOME OF THE REMAINING 48 STATES. NHTSA FAILURE TO RECALL ALL THE DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS LEAVES EVERYONE IN 48 STATES EXPOSED TO THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY AND DEATH DUE TO A KNOWN PRODUCT DEFECT. ALL DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS SHOULD BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY!!!!! CC: US ATTY GEN, MI ATTY GEN, KS ATTY GEN, KS US SENATORS, KS US CONGRESSIONAL REPS, FORD, ALL MEDIA. *TR

THE CAR WAS INVOLVED IN A ONE VEHICLE ACCIDENT HITTING A GUARD RAIL ON AN INTERSTATE AT 60 MPH. IT WAS PRETTY MUCH A HEAD ON COLLISION. THE CAR STOPPED IMMEDIATELY WHEN HITTING THE FIFTH POST OF THE GUARD RAIL, STOOD THE CAR UP ON ITS NOSE, SPUN AROUND ABOUT 360 DEGREES BEFORE LANDING ON THE TIRES. DURING THIS TIME THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED OR THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT CAUGHT. THE PASSENGER WAS BOUNCED ALL AROUND THE CAR. THE PASSENGERS OF THE CAR WERE LOOKING STRAIGHT DOWN AT THE ROAD WHEN THE CAR WAS SPINNING ON THE NOSE. NOW, BY GOD'S GRACE ONLY, THESE PASSENGERS WERE NOT EXTREMELY INJURED AND WAS IT A FATAL IMPACT. HOWEVER, IF THE SAFETY FEATURES OF THE CAR WORKED PROPERLY, LESS INJURY WOULD HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCED. THE COULD HAVE EASILY ROLLED AND IF SO, THE AIR BAGS WOULD HAVE BEEN A NECESSITY OF SECURITY PRECAUTIONS. FORD SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR ALL THE MUSTANGS EXPERIENCING AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PROBLEMS. I PURCHASE A VECHILE WITH THE SAFETY OPTIONS HAS A MAIN DECISION OF CHOICE. IF THE SAFETY IS NOT THERE, YOU ARE PURCHASING A "PRODUCT" OF DEATH. *TR
