Takata recall - in June 2016, I received a notice in the mail about the following issue with my 2006 Lincoln Zephyr: The passenger frontal airbag inflator could rupture if the vehicle is involved in a crash where the supplemental frontal airbags are designed to deploy. This defect report is in response to takata dirs 16E-042, 16E-043, 16E-044. I then received another notice in December 2017 saying that the remedy parts have been delayed but may be available in spring 2018, for certain vehicles. The notice also warns owners that allowing anyone to sit in the first row passenger seat could cause the air bag inflator to rupture during a crash and could also cause injuries or death. I'm filing a complaint because not being able to have anyone sit in the front row passenger seat has been an inconvenience and this issue hasn't not been resolved within a timely manner.

"takata recall" received a letter from Lincoln informing me that my passenger airbag could cause bodily harm if I have an accident and I'm not allowed to let anyone ride in the front passenger seat until it has been fixed. The first letter was dated in June 2016 should I be compensated for not being able to use my car with passengers riding in the front seat.

Car purchased 6/2016 from alex karras L/M in bradenton, fl. Passenger airbag was on recall. Dealer said would repair as soon as got parts. I've called every 3 months and get same story. No parts available. Today takata announces more recalls. I don't know why dealer will not process this recall. Parts should be available since it has been 19 months since I bought the car.

Takata recall the airbags covered in this recall have not been made available by the Lincoln motor company. This leaves my car at risk which leaves the possibility for injury or death in the future. The deadline for a claim in the takata bankruptcy is December 27, 2017. All affected cars should have the same opportunity to file suit in the case of death or injury. I would like to request that the takata bankruptcy hearing be postponed until all affected cars have been offered the opportunity to have the defective airbag replaced.
