2007 Ford Ranger

TAKATA RECALL I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL FOR MY TRUCK EARLY IN 2016. WHEN I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER ABOUT GETTING IT FIXED, THEY TOLD ME THEY DON,T HAVE THE PARTS AND MAY TAKE A WHILE, BUT SAID THE TRUCK WAS STILL SAFE TO DRIVE. IN THE MEAN TIME I CONTINUED TO DRIVE MY TRUCK SINCE IT WAS MY MAIN MODE OF TRANSPORTATION FOR WORK. ONE NIGHT DRIVING WITH A PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE THAT I WAS HIT BY ANOTHER DRIVER, SOMETHING THAT WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF MY CONTROL. BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAG WERE DEPLOYED. MY PASSENGER WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A MINOR CONCUSSION AND STILL SUFFERING FROM MIGRAINES. THIS RECALL HAS BEEN FOR MANY CARS AND THERE ARE MANY OTHERS DRIVING AROUND WITH THEIR AND THEIR PASSENGERS LIVES AT RISK. YOU CAN NOT STOP SOMEONE ELSE HITTING YOU WHILE DRIVING ALONG. THIS IS A BUG ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO GET RESOLVED BEFORE MORE PEOPLE GET HURT OR WORSE. AIRBAGS ARE SUPPOSE TO KEEP US SAFE AND PROTECT US FROM GETTING HURT NOT CAUSING INJURIES.
