| Description of the problem | -takata recall- i have been waiting since june 2016 to get a possibly deadly airbag replaced. Neither ford or lincoln customer service can give me an exact date that the airbag can be replaced, they are only saying possibly in spring in 2018. I drive around my two young children in this vehicle almost daily and i am worried sick of being in an accident. I have asked several dealers about loaner vehicles until parts are in, but i am told they are not. They are also saying that as long as there is no one sitting in the front passenger seat that the airbag will not deploy if in an accident, however my husband was in an accident (alone) in a ford flex just last year and all front and side airbags deployed... So i do not know if i believe them, and have no idea how they can guarantee that statement if a car is in a bad enough accident. |
