"takata recall" my complaint is that I received a safety recall letter in july of 2016, and since have not received anything to follow up with it. My cover on the dash board over the airbag is warped and bowed up and I am afraid that this may also be a problem with this issue. If this is possibly another part of something with the airbag system why has it not been taken care of by now.

The airbag warning light was enabled on the dashboard. The Ford dealer diagnosed this as code "DTC U2100:00 and B00A0:62-28 stored in RCM". I was told that Ford told the dealer to reprogram the RCM with new software and this was labor "not covered by warranty or recall." But, if my car were one model year later (2018 vs 2017) it would have been covered.
