2010 Ford Edge

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 FORD EDGE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO EL CENTRO MOTORS (1520 FORD DR., EL CENTRO, CA 92243, (760) 336-2100) WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

ON OCTOBER 25, 2018 I PUT MY VEHICLE IN REVERSE WHEN IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. IT HIT THE CURB AND CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE INTO ANOTHER PARKED VEHICLE WHICH CAUSE THAT VEHICLE TO HIT A BUILDING AND THEN MY VEHICLE CONTINUED IN REVERSE AND HIT ANOTHER CAR AND THEN CONTINUED UNTIL MY VEHICLE HIT A GMC TRUCK WHICH FINALLY STOPPED MY VEHICLE. DURING THIS ENTIRE EPISODE, I WAS UNABLE TO GET CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AT NO POINT WAS I ABLE TO USE MY BRAKES AS THEY DID NOT RESPOND. ALF THIS OCCURRED IN A SMALL COMMERCIAL PARKING LOT AND ALL VEHICLES INVOLVED WERE STATIONARY EXCEPT MINE.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR AS THE RECALL NOTICE WAS RECEIVED OVER A YEAR AGO. THE DEALER (WAXAHACHIE FORD, 1780 OLD HWY 287, WAXAHACHIE, TX 75165) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY.

THE CONTACT RECENTLY RECEIVED A POSTCARD FROM TK HOLDINGS, ALERTING HER THAT THE AIR BAG MANUFACTURER HAD FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

BRAKE PEDAL IS SOFT, SOMETIMES GOES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND MAKES A HISSING SOUND. SOME BREAK FUNCTION IS LOST. WE HAD NEW BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS, AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. OUR MECHANIC TELLS US THAT IT IS THE BRAKE BOOSTER. SAFETY IS NOW A GREAT CONCERN AS IT IS NOW COMPROMISED. OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, REGARDLESS OF LOCATION ON CITY STREET, HIGHWAY, OR TURNING.

TAKATA INFLATORS: MY COMPLAINT IS WITH YOUR AGENCY AS MUCH AS FORD. TWO YEARS AGO I LEARNED OF THE INFLATOR RECALL. I FINALLY GOT WRITTEN NOTIFICATION FROM FORD JULY 2016. AFTER NO FURTHER CONTACT I CALLED THEM WITH NOTHING FURTHER THEY COULD ADD. CALLED BACK JULY 2017 AND WAS TOLD NO PARTS WERE BEING MADE, JUST DON'T USE 1/4 THE VEHICLE SEATING FOR SAFETY. (NOT AN OPTION.) FOLLOW UP OCTOBER 2017, WORKING WITH A NEW VENDOR...PARTS SOON BUT NO DATE. GOT DECEMBER 2017 LETTER PARTS DELAYED UNTIL EARLY 2018. ITS MARCH. CALLED TODAY, MORE BS. NO PARTS MADE. MAYBE 1ST OR 2ND QUARTER. LADY MADE A U-TURN OUT OF A PARKING LOT A COUPLE WEEKS AGO AND I MISSED HER BY INCHES. WORRY EVERY TIME WE DRIVE IT OFTEN WITH GRANDKIDS IN CAR. NHTSA HAS DONE NOTHING WE HAVE OBSERVED TO FINE OR OTHERWISE HOLD FORD ACCOUNTABLE/MOTIVATE THEM. I SUSPECT THEY PAY LOBBYIST TO PRESSURE YOUR AGENCY TO IGNORE THIS PROBLEM. THEY HAD NO PROBLEM GETTING THEIR NEW CARS OUT THESE LAST TWO MODEL YEARS. TIRED OF MY FAMILIES LIVES BEING AT RISK DAILY, BUT CAN NOT GET OUT FROM UNDER THIS CAR AT THIS TIME AND WHO WOULD WANT TO BUY IT. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE RALPH NADER DAYS WHEN COMPANIES WERE FINED INTO MOTIVATION TO DO THE RIGHT THING INSTEAD OF WORRYING ABOUT THEIR PROFITS. I'M TIRED OF WORRYING ABOUT THIS PROVEN DEADLY FAULT. FORD HAS VERIFIED WE ARE PART OF THE HIGH RISK GROUP BECAUSE OF HUMIDITY. GET OFF YOUR BUTS AND GET US SOME HELP PLEASE!
