We have been receiving notification for over a year of the recall. Owner has called multiple times to schedule a repair, is then connected to dealership (phil long Ford) where he has left messages. The calls are never returned and no alternative is offered when he explains this to the person at the recall 800 number

I contacted the recall center by phone as recommended. The lady that answered said she could not find a match based on the VIN for the recall. She told me she would have a supervisor call me within 24 hours. That was weeks ago and I have not received a call and I am still getting these recall notices. Please address the problem.

Takata recall I sold my vehicle and filed the proper release of liability forms with the state of California. Despite repeated requests to Ford and to the dealership I continue to get recall notices. Ford seems not to care enough to send the recall notice to the new owner who may be injured.

Takata recall I received notice 2-1/2 years ago, I was told they are doing high humidity areas first and would contact me when I could go in for repair. I received another notice months ago and called the dealership. I still have not heard from them. I thought the first recall was for the driver ais bag on my vehicle, then came the passenger airbag.

Takata airbag 16S26 on the 12th of October 2018 I went to bill kay Ford in midlothian Illinois 60445. They perform the recall and everything was fine on the 17th they called me and said they made a mistake and needed me to bring it back I brought it back on the 18th of October and every since then the airbag compartment has been making a grinding noise that I didn't hear the first time they installed it I took it back on the 23rd I showed them the video footage of the sound it was making two different workers sat in the truck and heard the sound they kept the truck for 8 hours and called and told me that they tightened everything down but it was still making the sound and it was nothing they could do about it.I tried to make a complaint with Ford Motor Company to have them instruct the midlothian dealership to take the airbag module recall out so I can go to a different Ford dealership and have them perform the work correctly. Ford Motor Company said that they did not have the authority to tell them to do so I called midlothian and asked them to take the recall out so I can have someone do it correctly the first time at a different dealership. And they refused to do so I feel unsafe I am annoyed and this is unacceptable
