NHTSA Complaint #11429260 — 2013 FORD EXPLORER

My vehicle was originally recalled for Recall 20S62. I received the letter in November 2020, I took my vehicle to Wayland Ford. They confirmed my car did need to be repaired but also needed additional six inch bolts as well. I reached out several times to the dealer, they were waiting for parts due to COVID and supplier shortage in materials. In February I called back- Wayland Ford informed me I should have received a letter from Ford Motor which I did in Dec 2020 indicating my car did not need to be repaired. I did file a case with Ford Customer Care CAS30091178 for this very recall. There was nothing she could do, Ford is knowingly letting customers drive defective cars and Ford has chosen to do nothing to cast a wider net to make sure they have contained the defect therefore I am submitting a complaint.
