elijahbird7 Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 This car will have been back to the dealer for non oil change issues more than any of the last 10 Ford/Lincoln vehicles I have owned! I think I will eventually name it Christine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahbird7 Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 I wouldn't think this will happen quickly. I have a 2012 Mustang GT convertible. It will be 2 years in June that I got my first letter about the driver's airbag needing replacement. This is the one that can send pieces flying at you, and has caused deaths. The first letter said I would get a 2nd letter as soon as replacements were available at dealers. The 2nd letter came last spring. I went to my dealer to ask when I could schedule the replacement. They said they only had the airbags for 2010 and earlier Mustangs. I got a little rude at that point saying that I think it looks like they don't care if my airbag explodes and kills me! They said it wasn't their fault that Takata was taking so long to make the replacements. I went back in to ask this past October if the replacements were available, since I store all of my convertibles over the winter and would like to have it done before the end of October. They said they expected that year replacement sometime in January. Mid February I got a notice to bring my car in, so in a few weeks I will pull it out of storage and finally get the replacement done...just shy of 2 years!

fredluke Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Same here... Have a 2010 Mustang. Waited 6 months for drivers bag and still waiting over a year for passenger bag. It will take a while!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 I got the notice in the app yesterday. Also, I believe this campaign isn't related to the shrapnel issue - has to do with the airbag not inflating properly on deployment. Recall covers some 30,000 vehicles so all of us are likely included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
