Consumer Description

Hello, My car currently has an open recall that needs to be remediated it has been issued since OCT 30, 2020. This is the second recall to resolve an outstanding issue with my cars rear toe link 20S62/20V675. On three separate occasions I have attempted to get this remediated with three dealerships turning away servicing my vehicle due to lack of parts. I filed a complaint with the Ford Corporate office to report what I would consider Unfair Trade Practice and consumer right violations as these dealerships seem to be able to conduct the work however are turning away the recalls either to prioritize paying jobs. This leaves myself as a consumer with a lingering risk, exponential exposure to harm when operating my vehicle. Ford company is willfully aware of the situation and have not addressed this matter. I submitted another escalation today due to being turned away for a 3rd time. Keep in mind that I have requested to be contacted when parts have been available or if the parts can be ordered and neither of these requests have been met. I am aware that we are coming off the heels of the Covid pandemic and these dealerships might be short staffed, so they are being directed to avoid recall resolution.
