NHTSA Complaint #11443307 — 2011 FORD F-150

12/6-Driving car at 47 mph, abruptly slowed down, resulting in car throwing me forward with my head over the steering wheel. My chest was sore the next day from the seat belt. 12/7-googled issue/saw a recall existed. Called Capital Ford, Wilmington NC-explained issue in detail and concern for my safety. Advised to wait until 1/6 for warranty appt. Called back again-no openings. Called Burgaw Ford-no appts until later in January. Called Ford customer service. First Rep. placed me on hold and did not come back. Second rep.-explained, event details, she told me she would call me back after talking to the location. No call was ever received. 12/8-Called Capital Ford-explained-asked if there were any cancellations-told no and they never received cancellations. Called Ford customer service-Agent called all locations within 75 minutes of the area with no luck regarding appts except 1 avail. 70 mins away on 12/17. In every call I clearly communicated my concern for my safety. Advised, I have a required work trip this Sunday-Wed. in SC-so my car is needed. Pleaded for assistance getting my car fixed, a rental car or guidance on the reimbursement process if corrected by someone else. Uniform answers, Must wait until 1/6, no rental, no reimbursement. My assumption by Ford's actions is the car is safe to drive-despite my personal experience indicating otherwise. Unclear why all are so dismissive of the recall issue?
