SINCE JAN. 2018, WHEN I RECEIVED MY RECALL NOTICE, AND DESPITE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS TO MY FORD DEALER AND FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE, FORD HAS NOT SUPPLIED THE PARTS TO FIX MY RECALL. THEY HAVE NO SOLUTION AND NO EXPLANATION OF A REASONABLE TIME FRAME THAT I CAN HAVE THIS REPAIR DONE! SIMPLY UNACCEPTABLE!! MY FUEL MODULE MAY CRACK AND CAUSE A FIRE!!!!

TAKATA RECALL- HAD A RECALL ON THE FUEL DELIVERY MODULE FLANGE REPLACED AND HAVING ISSUES STARTING , LONG CRANKING ISSUES. FORD DEALER REFUSED TO BELIEVE THAT THE TECHNICIAN DIDN'T INSTALL IT PROPERLY. NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE WITH ONLY 50,000 MILES ON IT UNTIL AFTER THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED. I BELIEVE THE TECHNICIAN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED THE PART AND NOW EVERY TIME I START MY VEHICLE IT HAS LONG CRANKING ISSUES. I'M WORRIED IT MIGHT MESS WITH MY STARTER OR FUEL PUMP.

THERE IS FUEL LEAKING OUT FROM THE RECALLED LOCATION PART. FORD AND THE FORD DEALERSHIP ARE WAITING ON BACKORDERED PARTS WITH NO ETA FOR NEARLY 8 WEEKS SINCE WE FIRST REPORTED THE LEAK ON MARCH 5, 2018. THEY HAVE OFFERED NO LOANER CAR AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT EVEN SEEN THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY DON'T EXPECT TO HAVE THE PART ANYTIME SOON. THE CAR IS SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY DRYING OUT MEANWHILE I AM MAKING PAYMENTS ON A CAR THAT CANNOT BE DRIVEN OR REPAIRED. I HAVE MADE SEVERAL PHONE CALLS TO BOTH FORD MOTOR COMPANY WITH THE ORIGINAL CASE NUMBER CAS-14437322-W6L8V8 DEALING WITH ROBERTA WEBB, FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER. MYSELF AND MY HUSBAND HAVE SPOKEN SEVERAL TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER AT SHAKER FORD IN WATERTOWN, CT WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED. I FEEL AS IF THIS ISSUE IS BEING MISHANDLED AND REDIRECTED AND THAT IT IS TAKING FAR TOO LONG TO REACH A REASONABLE RESOLUTION.
