Several attempts have been made to attain an appointment to remedy this recall with a local dealership (Long-Lewis) in Corinth, MS. As of today, I have made six attempts to talk with service about this recall, no response has yet been offered. My concern is that I have been driving this vehicle since I purchased new in February 2008 with a potential grenade imitating an air bag and Ford Motor company and or their dealerships do not seem to take this concern seriously. Why is the Federal government (NHSTA) so passive about safety?
Recently purchased this truck and apparetly the passeenger air bag was missing or had previosly failed by imploding. I do not now the history of vehicle. I Carried the truck to Rockwall Ford in Rockwall, Texas to have the air bag recall taken care off. After being there for a week the service manager called me and said Ford would not pay for this since passenger air bag was missing. Ford said I would need to pay for the service myself. I have a major problem with Ford now because they are obligated by law to repace the air bags regardless any of prior events. Priors are totally irrevelant and meaningless. End result I want Ford Motor Company to replace the 2 air bags a no cost to me the consumer. I will continue to pursue the above until there is a satisfactory resolution Please advise Sincerely Larry Kinsey Ph. 214 650 3301 kinseydallas@gmail.com 3951 Fm 550 Royse City, Tex. 75189 Rockwall Ford ph. 972-290-2200 or 972-290-2257

We are still getting recall notices even though the airbags have been repaired. We contacted Ford and they said they have record of the repair being completed but we need to contact dmv to get it recorded.

Takata recall - I received a settlement notice from a district court in Florida stating I may have been part of a recall - checked my VIN on nhsta site and it did indeed have a recall from June 2006. I was never notified by Ford about this recall. On the nhsta website it states that if they do not notify my within a timely manner to make repairs on the vehicle, that I should log a complaint. I am unsure the steps I should go about getting this fixed and if Ford will handle the replacement. Any information would be helpful
