Takata recall- I have been instructed to not allow anyone to sit in the front passenger seat of my car. I have been denied the use of 1/4 of my vehicle. This recall began 2 years ago. Newer cars are being repaired but not mine. I inquired about the free rental car. I was told they were booked up for months. When I asked about insurance they informed me they would use my insurance. I only have liability. It will not cover a rental car. They are out of touch with the facts. The date below is an approximate date of the original recall notice.

"takata recall": this recall has been in effect for years and the dealership still does not have the passenger frontal airbag inflator replacement part, nor can they provide me with an estimated date they expect to receive the parts and repair my vehicle. The only option they offered was to add me to a waiting list, which I've been on since I was notified of the recall years ago. In addition, the dashboard is warped due to high heat around the passenger side airbag. Thru research, I discovered that the ammonium nitrate used in takata airbags can become unstable over time, especially after exposure to temperature fluctuations and periods of constant high humidity. I live in nc, which is zone B one of the three priority zones. The dealer has offered no remedy and I was told that they no longer have any loaner cars available. This the only vehicle I have for transportation so I have no choice but to drive it. A remedy to this problem should be provided immediately before more people die or are seriously injured.

I have received several letters from Ford regarding the airbag recall. Whenever I ask my dealership about replacing the airbags I am told that they are not available. I called Ford Motor Company and got the same response. What do I do?
2007 Ford Fusion. Consumer writes in regard to safety airbag recall no. 16S26/ NHTSA recall 16V-384. The consumer stated the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time completing the recall repair.
In 2016, I received a letter stating that my vehicle is affected by the takata airbag recall and that I shouldn't have anyone sit in my passenger seat. I was told that I would be contacted when parts were available and the airbag would be replaced free of charge. Since that time, I have never been contacted to have the airbag replaced. This year, I received a letter dated June 2018 basically telling me the same thing...that when the parts were available, the airbag would be replaced and that should happen during the second or third quarter of 2018. So far, I still have not received any word about replacing this airbag and it has now been two full years. I have not been able to travel with anyone in the front seat which has been a major inconvenience for my family. I have called Ford several times and left messages but no one ever calls me back.
In Oct 2018 Ford replaced recalled airbags bit after I got my car back I have a error light on dash that gives a code B2290 which is still stating that airbags are faulty.
