NHTSA Complaint #10367078 — 2007 FORD ESCAPE

ON AUGUST 27TH OF 2009 I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 FORD ESCAPE WHILE CORRECTING MY CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT I HIT A WET SPOT IN THE ROAD AND LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE I ROLLED 2 TIMES AND STOPPED WITH A FRONT END COLLISION. THE SEAT BELT DID NOT CATCH CAUSING ME TO BASH MY FACE INTO THE STEERING WHEEL AT LEAST TWO TIMES. THE AIR BAGS ALSO DID NOT WORK EITHER. BECAUSE OF THE FAULTY EQUIPMENT IT CAUSED ME TO BREAK MY NECK IN 3 PLACES AND SPENDING 2 WEEKS IN THE HOSPITAL HAVING TO HAVE SURGERY WITH A METAL ROD AND TWO SCREWS....BECAUSE OF THE DEFAULTED EQUIPMENT I STILL SUFFER FROM PERMANENT NERVE AND MUSCLE DAMAGE AND CHRONIC PAIN. *TR
