| Description of the problem | Takata recall. Received notice july 2016. As of 3/21/2017 no movement on problem. 1. What's to stop lincoln from letting this recall go until they find it cheaper to offer me money for car vs fixing? This is a garage kept, 42,000 mile car in perfect condition. 2. Because it is garage kept and has been, are the probabilities lower for a problem if bag goes off? 3. It's wrong that i can't feel comfortable driving my wife and grandkids around in the car. It's almost a worthless car, which goes back to #1. 4. Know they need to sell cars to have money, but there should be a better balance and at some point they need to have new car sales shutdown. %. Recall #16v-384 |
