Consumer Description

ON WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 30, 2020, MY 2012 FORD F-150 WAS INVOLVED IN A 35MPH FRONT END COLLISION. THE DRIVER WAS THE ONLY OCCUPANT IN THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. I AM CONCERNED WHY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. AFTER ACCIDENT, THERE WAS AN AMBER "AIRBAG MALFUNCTION" WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. IN 2012, THERE WAS A FORD F-150 RECALL # 12V198000 FOR PASSENGER AIRBAG CONTROL SENSOR MODULE (OCSM). THIS VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL. THIS VEHICLE MAY HAVE A FAULTY OCSM THAT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I AM GOING TO ASK THE REPAIR SHOP TO SAVE THIS VEHICLES "BLACK BOX" AND OCSM IN CASE THERE IS NEED FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION OF THESE PARTS.
