Apparent takata recall, and I am having trouble getting anyone from Ford to help me get it done. First notice of any sort received in mail from Ford on June 27, 2016. Safety recall notice 15S21, NHTSA recall 15V-319. Says in part "parts are now available to report your vehicle." And "please call your dealer without delay and request a service date for recall 15S21." On June 28, I called lindsay Ford in wheaton md which said it did not have parts and would not know when they would. I called koon's Ford in silver spring md, which said parts would not be available until the fall. On June 30, I called the Ford customer relationship center to find out where to get this repaired; after interminable wait on their line, I finally spoke to a representative, who forwarded me to "kevin." He was unable to determine when parts would be available in my area. I am concerned that Ford has now sent me a letter, the first notice of any issue with my car, and quite alarming; Ford told me to call dealer right away, which I did, and neither of two dealers I called nor the Ford customer relationship center can seem to help.

Takata recall back in July 2015 I received a safety recall notice regarding the afore mentioned. In the notice we were informed that we would be contacted when parts became available Ford will notify us when we could schedule a service appointment. Almost a year later still no letter I have called our local dealer three times and Ford customer service and still there is no fix in sight for us - apparently. What is our recourse? we live in glendora California, if you can provide a dealer that is provided with parts for repair I would appreciate that.

I received the recall notice last year in 2015. I took the car to the Ford dealer in Napa California for service/repair. The dealer told me that the replace parts were not available because they had not been manufactured yet. I went back for service in March 2016, and was told the same thing. If I am maimed, wounded or killed because of this dangerous equipment and negligent process, I hope my family files a huge law suite and Ford and the us government for failure of oversight of a known defect cause harm or death.

Takata recall, called Ford and they said it would be Sept or Oct 2016 before I can get my airbag replaced. This is ridiculous, hoping not to be in accident for 18 months while waiting for them to get to this. Recall was May 2015..I and or my family will file lawsuit in the event that I am in accident before this recall is repaired
