There has been a recall on the airbags. I have been calling for three months trying to get the airbags done and inspected. I have called four different dealerships and they are all giving me a hard time saying that they do not have the parts in stock and that it could "take months" to get the airbag ordered and in if they are even willing to do this. One mechanic told me that it was not that big of a deal. I do not feel safe like this and I want the airbag replaced. I am going around in circled with this and Ford will not help me. I have called Ford corprate to no avail. I am very upset about this and am asking that they fix this problem. The tire keeps going flat as well due to a defect with their rims/tires. There was also an issue where the engine can catch fire however, the people from Ford do not seem to care. They do not have to drive this car, I do and I need to feel safe. …

I am complaining that Recall # 21S12 has been unresolved for years now. They have replaced the passenger airbag, but not the Driver side. This is a serious issue and not addressing it in a timely matter puts me and my families safety at risk. In the case of the passenger Airbag, I was offered a loaner vehicle. Now with the Drivers side Airbag recall, I have not been offered the same measure of safety. Thank You, Sincerely, Floyd Baker

My question is I'm getting ready to buy a 2007 Ford edge for my mother and she's already put three water pumps on this car and it cost like almost 1000 bucks to do it every time. I don't even know if it's worth it but I was just wondering if there's any recalls on something like that or if it's something wrong with why it keeps going keeps messing up

While driving the air bag symbol and wrench appears on the dash, car starts losing power, and when shifting gears there's a hard shift and clunking noise. Videos on YouTube show many people with the same issue some say it's a sensor issue. Output Shaft speed sensor and turbine speed sensor
