WE HAVE BEEN RECEIVING NOTIFICATION FOR OVER A YEAR OF THE RECALL. OWNER HAS CALLED MULTIPLE TIMES TO SCHEDULE A REPAIR, IS THEN CONNECTED TO DEALERSHIP (PHIL LONG FORD) WHERE HE HAS LEFT MESSAGES. THE CALLS ARE NEVER RETURNED AND NO ALTERNATIVE IS OFFERED WHEN HE EXPLAINS THIS TO THE PERSON AT THE RECALL 800 NUMBER

I CONTACTED THE RECALL CENTER BY PHONE AS RECOMMENDED. THE LADY THAT ANSWERED SAID SHE COULD NOT FIND A MATCH BASED ON THE VIN FOR THE RECALL. SHE TOLD ME SHE WOULD HAVE A SUPERVISOR CALL ME WITHIN 24 HOURS. THAT WAS WEEKS AGO AND I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A CALL AND I AM STILL GETTING THESE RECALL NOTICES. PLEASE ADDRESS THE PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL I SOLD MY VEHICLE AND FILED THE PROPER RELEASE OF LIABILITY FORMS WITH THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. DESPITE REPEATED REQUESTS TO FORD AND TO THE DEALERSHIP I CONTINUE TO GET RECALL NOTICES. FORD SEEMS NOT TO CARE ENOUGH TO SEND THE RECALL NOTICE TO THE NEW OWNER WHO MAY BE INJURED. *BF *TR
