JUST RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FOR MY 2011 FUSION PASSENGER TAKATA AIRBAG STATING. "A RUPTURED INFLATOR MAY RESULT IN METAL FRAGMENTS STRIKING VEHICLE OCCUPANTS CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH". I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP & THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE PARTS TO FIX OR REPLACE WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS BUT YOU CAN STILL DRIVE THE VEHICLE. ????? I TAKE CARE OF MY ELDERLY PARENTS I TRANSPORT MY 90 YR OLD MOTHER TO FROM FROM THE HOSPITAL ER DOC VISITS. SHE RECENTLY HAD A FEW FALLS BROKE HER HIP, WRIST, NOSE ETC. I CAN NOT PUT THEM IN A VEHICLE KNOWING THIS CAN HAPPEN. WHY WOULD YOU SEND A LETTER OUT BEFORE YOU CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT? WHAT ABOUT RENTAL CARS PROVIDED BY FORD?

Is 2 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2016 and 2018, roughly 1 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
