TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE TO SEVERAL FORD DEALERSHIPS TO GET AN UPDATE ON THE AIRBAG RECALL. THE STORY REMAINS THE SAME. FORD DOES NOT HAVE A SOLUTION YET TO THE PROBLEM. I FIND THIS TO BE TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE GIVEN THE FACT THE THERE ARE OTHER MUSTANGS PRODUCED SINCE THIS CAR HAS BEEN MANUFACTURED THAT DO NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. OTHER CAR MANUFACTURES (IE. HONDA/ACURA) HAVE BEEN ABLE TO OBTAIN REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THE AIRBAGS ARE ARE AGGRESSIVELY SEEKING OUT OWNERS TO HAVE THE BAGS REPLACED AND EVEN SUGGESTING THAT SOME CARS NOT BE DRIVEN UNTIL REPAIRED. I DO NOT FEEL THAT FORD IS DOING ENOUGH TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE QUICKLY.
