Takata recall. Ford has yet to fix my passenger side airbag. They predict they "might have" replacement parts in the spring of 2018 but the letter received only states select vehicles. Their remedy is to not have anyone sit in the passenger seat. It is a Ford mustang. The backseat is not big at all and is only comfortable if you have a double amputee back their. How is my wife who is claustrophobic supposed to ride with me? This is not acceptable. This will also effect if I ever want to trade it in or resell my vehicle as it is a potential death trap for a passenger. Ford has taken a 4 passenger car that is really only for 2 people comfortable and made it a one seater.

About a month after my purchase of my new mustang in 2009, I had an issue with my air bag light coming on all the time. I took it in while under warranty to get it fixed. It took the Ford house 2 months to fix the problem. 4 years later same issue. Air bag light is coming on. No warranty at this time to get it check out. I've noticed that it has been a common issue or at least with faulty air bags. I'm afraid I may have the same issue if I am ever in a car accident. I feel that Ford should be responsible for correcting the same issue as of 4 years ago. Call it a warning sign that it may very well be a faulty air bag issue. To be continued. *tr

Takata recall. Manufacturer recall 16s26. Two dealers where I have inquired state that passenger side air bag parts are not available and may not be manufactured at all because takata will be going out of business.
