Ford Mustang 1995 Complaint

Complaint about AIR BAGS : FRONTAL

HARRISBURG, IL

Consumer Complaint:
ON FEB. 17, 2004 I WAS STRUCK FROM BEHIND BY A KIA SPORTAGE THAT WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH. I WAS STOPPED BEHIND A MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE AT THE TIME. WHEN I WAS STRUCK IT THRUST MY VEHICLE INTO THE REAR OF THE ECLIPSE. MY AIRBAGS IN MY VEHICLE NEVER DEPLOYED. I AM POSITIVE THAT THE FORCE OF THE COLLISION WAS SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO CAUSE MINE TO DEPLOY. MY 2 CHILDREN, AS WELL AS MYSELF RECEIVED WHIPLASH AND SHOULDER/NECK INJURIES. I FEEL THAT WE WERE VERY FORTUNATE TO COME OUT OF THIS UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT ALIVE. I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT EXACTLY WHY THEY DID NOT DEPLOY. WHO CAN WE CONTACT ABOUT RETRIEVING THE INFORMATION FROM THE BLACK BOX? WE HAVE ALREADY BEEN ADVISED TO SECURE THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT CAN BE INVESTIGATED. WE WILL ALSO PHOTOGRAPH THE OTHER 2 VEHICLES INVOLVED, AS THIS MAY MAKE IT EASIER TO INVESTIGATE. WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT ALL 3 VEHICLES HAVE BEEN TOTALED. *JB
