THE DRIVER SIDE IS READY BUT NOT THE PASSENGER SIDE. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO SINCE IT IS THE CAR THAT MY TEENAGER IS RIDING IN DAILY. WOULD YOU DRIVE AROUND WITH A CHILD IN THIS DANGEROUS CAR? I THINK FORD SHOULD GIVE LOANER CARS UNTIL THIS PROBLEM HAS A REMEDY. OR FORD SHOULD NOT ALLOW CARS TO BE SOLD WHILE UNDER THIS DANGEROUS RECALL. FORD SHOULD BUY BACK MY DANGEROUS CAR SO I CAN BUY A SAFE CAR FOR MY FAMILY. WHAT IS FORD DOING TO PROTECT MY FAMILY?
