TAKATA RECALL POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND LACK OF HUMANITY AS FORD AND LINCOLN REFUSE TO PROVIDE LOANER VEHICLES FOR ALL OF THEIR CUSTOMERS WHO ARE AFFECTED BY THIS. OUR FAMILY HAS ENDURED ALMOST 1 1/2 YEARS OF MENTAL STRESS WORRYING ABOUT GETTING INTO A SIMPLE FENDER BENDER BECAUSE IT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH AS RESULT OF A LIFESAVING DEVICE THAT COULD IN FACT KILL THE DRIVER AND/OR PASSENGERS. EVEN THE INSURANCE COMPANIES WOULD NOT ASSIST IN PAYING FOR A RENTAL VEHICLE AS A PROACTIVE APPROACH TO AVOID A POTENTIAL CATASTROPHIC EVENT. OUR SOCIETY IS OBSESSED WITH MONEY AND GREED, WE NO LONGER LOOK OUT FOR EACH OTHER. STILL WAITING FOR OUR VEHICLE TO BE REPAIRED IN MICHIGAN.

A COUPLE YEARS AGO, WE RECEIVED A NOTICE ABOUT THE AIR BAGS. WE WERE TOLD THAT OUR DEALER WOULD CONTACT US WHEN THEY COULD CORRECT THE PROBLEM. WE'VE HEARD NOTHING FROM THEM. A FEW MONTHS AGO FMCO SENT ANOTHER WARNING ABOUT HOW DANGEROUS THE AIR BAGS WERE AND WE SHOULD AVOID HAVING PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. STILL NO CONTACT REGARDING REPAIR. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
