| Description of the problem | The passenger front air bag cover on the dash is lifting up on the left side and has been like this for a while. It looks a little higher. We have been trying to have this air bag fixed since the initial recall in july 2016. We are in our mid eighties and rely on this vehicle for many dr. Appointments & hospital visits for ourselves. There is no reason we have to ride around living in fear that our airbags can't be fixed. This needs to be addressed immediately!!! Please have someone contact us as soon as possible!!! We are tired of excuses from the ford company! I'm sure they knew about this issue for a long time even before the public knew. It shouldn't have to take people dying in their cars with this issue before the car companies address it!! Thank you and we appreciate anything you can do to help us get this fixed!! |
