Description of the problem | Takata recall: i received a recall letter dated july 2016 from ford informing me that "a ruptured inflator may result in metal fragments striking vehicle occupants causing serious injury or death." i took the car the ford dealership in rockwall, texas and was told they did not have the repair parts and did not know when they would get them. Five months later, i wrote a complaint letter to the ceo of ford objecting to the risk to my family of driving that defective vehicle. On january 3, 2017, i received a form letter back from ford customer service that is worthless. I do not believe there is any serious intention to solve this dangerous situation. |
