2012 LINCOLN MKZ Air Bags Problems

I was notified April 2021, that my vehicle had an airbag safety recall repair. To date, I have not been notified to bring my vehicle in for the repair to be performed. The parts were to be in the third quarter of 2021, I have been patient. But, this recall addresses the driver side airbag. I am concerned that if it explodes, I could be seriously hurt. Please advise me. What is my next step.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2012 Lincoln MKZ. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V158000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer was made aware of the issue and confirmed that parts were not yet available. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts are not available.

Due to the open recall without a known solution, I am unable to ensure the safe use of my vehicle for my family and my business, and have lost income due to this problem.

I AM STILL CONFUSED BY WHAT HAPPENED - I HAD TIME TO STOP THE VEHICLE BUT IT DID NOT RESPOND. I AM 60 YEARS OLD AND A LONG TIME CITY COMMUTER ALONG WITH HAVING TRAVELED THIS ROUTE REGULARLY SINCE 1979. I CANNOT HELP BUT CONCLUDE THERE WAS SOME TYPE OF BRAKE MALFUNCTION WITH MY 2012 LINCOLN MKZ. *TR

Mileage: 42,000

I FULLY STOPPED IN A PARKING PLACE WHERE I USE TO GO EVERY MONDAY TO PICK UP KIDS FROM A DANCING SCHOOL. AFTER I FULLY STOPPED AND TRY TO PUT THE CLUTCH ON P THE CAR ACCELERATED BY ITSELF. I WENT TROUGH A BUILDING AND AS I TRIED TO CONTROL THE CAR I WAS TRYING TO PUT IN P AND I WAS NOT ABLE. I KEPT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND TRIED TO STABILIZE THE CAR..EVENTUALLY THE CAR ENDED IN A DITCH AND I WAS ABLE TO EXIT IMMEDIATELY. THE AIR BEGS OPENED ONLY AFTER I EXIT THE CAR. I WAS IN COMPLETE SHOCK AND I WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL HOSPITAL BY THE RESCUE SQUAD. I ASKED MY INSURANCE TO KEEP THE COMPLETELY DAMAGED CAR TO BE INSPECTED BY LINCOLN INSPECTORS SINCE THE CAR HAD 2 PROBLEMS 1. ACCELERATED WHEN FULLY STOPPED 2 AIR BEGS DID NOT OPEN DURING THE CRASH WITH THE BUILDING MY INSURANCE CHUBB WROTE TO LINCOLN COMPANY BUT UNTIL TODAY NO ONE RESPONDED OR INSPECTED THE DAMAGED CAR. I WAS LUCKY THE KIDS WERE STILL IN CLASS, I COULD HAVE HEARD MANY OF THEM IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN A FEW MINUTES LATER. I REQUEST AN INVESTIGATION OF THE CAR SINCERELY *TR
