Consumer Description

AN ON COMING CAR LOST CONTROL AND SWERVED INTO MY DAUGHTERS LANE OF TRAFFIC. MY DAUGHTER WAS UNABLE TO STOP IN TIME AND T-BONED THE OTHER CAR. UPON IMPACT, THE OTHER CAR WAS SPLIT IN 2. MY DAUGHTERS AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS WHY HER AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. WHEN I CALL THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY THEY TOLD ME BECAUSE "NO ONE WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED THEY WOULD NOT LOOK INTO THE MATTER." THANKFULLY EVERYONE WALKED AWAY. MY DAUGHTER HAS A CONCUSSION AND BRUISED RIBS FROM THE ACCIDENT. FORD MOTOR COMPANY TOLD ME THE ONLY WAY THEY WOULD CONSIDER LOOKING AT THE VEHICLE IS IF I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM OUR INSURANCE COMPANY (OUR INSURANCE TOTALED THE VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE EXCESSIVE DAMAGE) AND THEN HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED FORD DEALER. *TR
