Description of the problem | Takata recall. I purchased this car used approx a year ago. I received a recall letter from ford july 2015. There is still no place that can make these repairs due to not having the parts. I found out yesterday that these cars with this recall were not to be resold. I went to check about trading my car in just to upgrade to a newer year when i was informed that the cars cannot be resold. The trade value was a joke and i do believe that the recall has alot to do with that. I am very upset that i am driving a car with my child in it that has this airbag issue. I called the number on the letter when i received it and was told it was nothing to worry about and that when the parts were available i would be informed. Well still nothing has been done and i keep getting told there aren't any parts yet. So what do i do i purchased a 28000. 00 car that is worth nothing for a trade and it is not safe to drive. I feel like the dealership i purchased from should do something for me and ford should replace all these defective vehicles. I am just so upset over this. What can i do next? Vehicle vin [xxx].
