NHTSA Complaint #10534975 — 2000 FORD FOCUS

I HAVE A 2000 FORD FOCUS, I HIT A CAR FROM THE BACK, BECAUSE THEY SLAMMED ON THEIR BRAKES. MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOYED. I WAS GOING 25-30 MPH. THE FRONT OF THE CAR IS TOTALLY TOTALED. BUT THE AIRBAG SENSOR IS VISIBLE TO THE HUMAN EYE! I AM WONDERING WHY MY AIRBAG DO NOT DEPLOYED? AIRBAG DEFECTS? MY FACE SMASH THE STEERING WHEEL. ME AND MY PASSENGER HAVE NECK, BACK, SHOULDER CONTUSIONS. I HAVE SEVERE PAIN IN THOSE AREAS. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON WHY MY AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOYED BECAUSE IT DID NOT SEEM RIGHT TO ME. AND I DISCOVERED A CASE AND WHICH THE SAME CAR MODEL, MAKE AND YEAR, SIMILAR TO MINES WHICH STATED, "FORD ADMITTED THAT IT DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THE ACTUAL AIR BAG NON-DEPLOYMENT THRESHOLD WHEN IT STARTED SELLING THESE CARS TO ITS CUSTOMERS! THEY LATER CHANGED THE AIRBAG SYSTEM DESIGN TO INCREASE THE THRESHOLD BEGINNING IN 2002, BUT THEY NEVER RECALLED THE 2000 AND 2001 FORD FOCUS CARS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM." *TR
