| Description of the problem | Takata recall - i received notice from ford recently informing me that, once again, ford has missed a deadline and cannot project a completion date. According to their november 30, 2017 letter to your office of chief counsel, ford has failed to meet their prior commitments to nhtsa and, more importantly, their vehicle owners who are left with unsafe vehicles with no assurance of a timely remedy. According to ford's letter, their failure is due to poor decisions on their part (e. G. Trying a "simple" design approach). As our agents representing the millions of at-risk consumers, i expect that nhtsa will not accept their open-ended request for extension, but rather enforce commitments made by ford with appropriate actions to ensure that they are held accountable for their commitments and decisions. To do otherwise would constitute a failure of nhtsa to fulfill its mission. |
