Consumer Description

MY DAUGHTER HAD A WRECK, SHE REAR-ENDED A TRUCK WHO RAN INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIRBAG ON MY VEHICLE DID NOT DEPLOY ALTHOUGH THE SEATBELT DID LOCK UP. THERE HAD BEEN NO WARNING LIGHT STATING THAT THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG. I HAVE WRITTEN TO FORD ABOUT THIS MALFUNCTION BUT THEY JUST SAY THERE IS NO RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS. I TOLD THEM THAT UNFORTUNATELY NO ONE WILL KNOW IF THERE IS A PROBLEM UNTIL THEY HAVE AN ACCIDENT. I FEEL THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE PART AND NEEDS INVESTIGATION. *TR
