BRAKE BOOSTER. I HAVE A 2010 EDGE THAT HAD A RECALL ON THE BRAKE BOOSTER. THE FORD WEBSITE LISTED THE RECALL FOR 2010-2013 BUT FOR SOME REASON MY VEHICLE WASN'T PART OF THE RECALL AND I NEED TO KNOW WHY ESPECIALLY WHEN IT STATES THAT FSA VIN LIST WILL NOT BE ACTIVATED FOR THE SERVICE ACTION. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION I WAS PUT IN AND I'M BEING TOLD THAT THE RECALL IS NOT ON MY VIN. MY BRAKES MADE A "HISSING" SOUND WHEN PRESSED AND TO GET THE CAR TO STOP I HAD TO PRESS VERY HARD WITH BOTH FEET. AND THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN OVER TIME. WITHIN A WEEK MY CAR WENT FROM BRAKING NORMALLY TO HAVING TO FIGHT TO STOP MY CAR.

TAKATA RECALL. MY 2010 FORD EDGE IS ON THE RECALL LIST FOR A REPLACEMENT AIRBAG AND THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR MAY EXPLODE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. IF THIS IS A KNOWN RECALL AND PEOPLE HAVE DIED AS A RESULT OF THIS, WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG TO GET THE REPLACEMENT? AN ACCIDENT CAN HAPPEN AT ANYTIME AND I DON'T WANT TO BE AFRAID TO RIDE IN MY OWN VEHICLE FOR THE FEAR OF THE AIRBAG. IF A REPLACEMENT CANNOT BE MADE, WHAT CAN BE DONE? TAKATA HAS FILED FOR CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY.

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET MY AIRBAGS REPLACED SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THIS RECALL. I DID RECEIVE A LETTER TO HAVE THEM CHANGED IMMEDIATELY BUT IS BEEN WAY OVER A YEAR SINCE I HAVE BEEN CALLING THE FORD PLACES TO HAVE THEM REPLACED. THEY KEEP TELLING ME THEY DONT HAVE THEM IN STOCK AND THE PLACE THAT SENDS THEM THE AIRBAGS DOES NOT HAVE THEM. MY FORD IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I HAVE TO TRAVEL AROUND IN AND HAVE NO CHOICE TO USE IT EVERYDAY SO WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN IF THE AIRBAGS GO OFF? AM I GOING TO BE BLAMED FOR NOT GETTING THEM FIXED OR DO I HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE PAIN OF SOMEONE IN MY FAMILY, INCLUDING ME, GETTING MAMMED OR DIE FOR HAVING BAD AIRBAGS. LIVES ARE AT STAKE. I NEED THESE CHANGED. I LOVE MY FORD BUT THEY NEED TO STEP UP AND GET MY CAR IN THEIR SHOP TO FIX THESE.
