2007 Ford Edge Air Bags

TAKATA RECALL, I WAS INFORMED BY FORD, APPROXIMATELY 1.5 YEARS AGO, THAT MY 2007 FORD EDGE HAD A RECALL AND THE AIRBAG COULD CAUSE FATAL INJURIES TO THE PASSENGER SITTING IN THE FRONT SEAT. THIS IS A SIMPLE FIX THAT FORD HAS REFUSED TO PROCURE PARTS TO FIX AT THE RISK OF KILLING MY FAMILY MEMBERS. 1.5 YEARS TO COME UP WITH A SIMPLE PART THAT COULD SAVE MY FAMILY'S SAFETY AND LIFE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE DELAY IN THIS MATTER AND FORCE FORD TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION.

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS NOTIFIED ON MARCH 1, 2017 OF THE AIRBAG RECALL. IT'S BEEN ALMOST YEAR AND I'VE HEARD NOTHING SINCE. EACH TIME I CALL THE DEALER, THEY TELL ME 'WE'RE WORKING ON IT.' AND THAT 'WE'LL CALL YOU WHEN THE PARTS ARE IN.'. MEANWHILE, I'M RUNNING MY KIDS AROUND IN THIS VEHICLE EVERY DAY. I THINK IT'S ABSURD FOR SOMETHING TO TAKE THIS LONG. I WOULD LIKE THIS PROBLEM ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. AND IF THERE IS FINANCIAL COMPENSATION AVAILABLE FOR THE TROUBLE, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW THAT APPLICATION PROCESS WORKS AS WELL. THE RECALL NOTICE IS NHTSA RECALL 17V-024

TAKATA RECALL. MY CAR HAS BEEN ON THE RECALL FOR OVER A YEAR WITHOUT RESOLUTION REGARDING THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL. I CHECK STATUS REGULARLY AND I'M INFORMED THEY DO NOT HAVE REPLACEMENT PART. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE PERIOD OF TIME TO NOT BE ABLE TO HAVE A PASSENGER RIDE IN OUR FAMILY VEHICLE. WE HAVE A ROAD TRIP PLANNED AND NEED THE AIRBAG REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.

TAKATA RECALL, I RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE MARCH 2017. I HAVE CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP PERIODICALLY FOR 10 MONTHS. I WROTE TO FORD 4 TIMES. ONE RESPONSE FROM FORD DATED OCT 13, 2017 ADVISED ZONE FIXES. I LIVE IN UTAH-ZONE C WHICH STATED "ARE NOT AFFECTED AT THIS TIME. HUMIDITY ZONES ARE PRIORITY. MY RELATIVES LIVE IN MINNESOTA. I WAS BORN IN MINNESOTA. IT SEEMS FROM FORD'S SIDE THAT AS LONG AS I DO NOT DRIVE OUT OF THE UTAH STATE BORDER I AM LESS APT TO HAVE A SERIOUS ISSUE. GOING ONE STEP FARTHER IF I LEAVE IT IN MY GARAGE EVEN LESS PROBABILITY OF DISASTER. I HAVE EXPLAINED THIS TO FORD WITH NO RESPONSE. I HAVE ENOUGH LETTER RESPONSES FROM TAKATA TO START A TOILET TISSUE FACTORY. THIS IS FORD ISSUE, THEY HIRED TAKATA. I AM TIRED OF BEING PUSHED OFF TO TAKATA (WHO FILED BANKRUPTCY / RESTRUCTURE. ALL I WANT IS MY CAR FIXED AND THE SATISFACTION THAT MY WIFE AND I DRIVING IN MINNESOTA OR ANY OTHER STATE BETWEEN UTAH AND MINNESOTA WILL NOT BE TORN APART BY SHRAPNEL. MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP IN LAYTON UTAH SAID THEY HAVE NO INFO ON WHEN THIS FIX WILL BE AVAILABLE. HELP PLEASE.

TAKATA INFLATORS I HAVE A SAFTEY RECALL FOR MY AIRBAGS. I AM IN THE DALLAS AREA AND I GOT IN CONTACT WITH ALL OF THE FORD DEALERSHIPS IN THE DALLAS AREA AND NON OF THEM HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PARTS. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE I SHOULD NOT DRIVE WITH A PASSENGER BECAUSE IF THE AIRBAG WERE TO INFLATE IT COULD SEND METAL FRAGMENTS FLYING CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY AND DEATH. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MAJOR CONCERN AND DUE TO THE FACT THAT I USE MY VEHICLE DAILY FOR CARPOOL I NEED TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. HOWEVER THE FORD DEALERSHIPS HAVE SAID THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS AND THEY ARE NOT SURE WHEN THEY WILL GET THEM, SPECIFICALLY NORTH CENTRAL FORD IN RICHARDSON WHICH IS MY DEALERSHIP. THIS IS CAUSE FOR MAJOR CONCERN FOR ME THAT I CANNOT GET THIS REPLACED.

TAKATA RECALL. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED IN JULY 2016. I HAVE STILL NOT BEEN ABLE TO HAVE MY AIRBAGS REPAIRED - 18 MONTHS LATER. I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THE HANDLING OF THIS RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL. WE RECEIVED THE TAKATA RECALL LETTER FROM FORD STATING THAT WE SHOULD NOT LET ANYONE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE AIRBAG WAS REPLACED. I CONTACTED FORD TO FIND OUT WHEN REPLACEMENT PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE BEST ESTIMATE FORD COULD PROVIDE WAS THAT POSSIBLY SOMETIME IN SPRING 2018, PARTS MAY BECOME AVAILABLE BUT THERE WERE NO GUARANTEES. I TOLD THE REPRESENTATIVE THAT WE COULD NOT FUNCTION THAT LONG WITHOUT ALLOWING SOMEONE TO RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I REQUESTED A LOANER VEHICLE AND THE REPRESENTATIVE SAID THAT LOANER VEHICLES ARE NOT AVAILABLE. THE REPRESENTATIVE OFFERED TO HAVE THE SUPERVISOR CALL ME. THE SUPERVISOR REPEATED THE INFORMATION AND I REQUESTED TO BE CONTACTED BY SOMEONE IN MANAGEMENT. THE SUPERVISOR TOLD ME THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE. I ASKED REPEATEDLY WHAT COULD BE DONE TO MOVE THE PROCESS ALONG FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS AND TO GET A LOANER CAR. AFTER REPEATED REQUESTS TO BE PLACED IN CONTACT WITH MANAGEMENT, THE SUPERVISOR REPEATEDLY SAID THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE AND THEN HUNG UP ON ME. THIS WAS CASE # CAS13801731. I CHECKED WITH MY LOCAL FORD DEALER, CHAMPION FORD IN EDINBORO, PA WHO SAID THEY WOULD DO THE REPAIR WHEN THEY RECEIVE REPLACEMENT PARTS. HOWEVER, FORD HAS NOT GIVEN ANY DATES AS TO WHEN THEY CAN EXPECT TO RECEIVE PARTS.
