Expedition 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

My Ford Expedition was rear ended by a large garbage truck. My air bag did not deploy at that hit. My truck went into a spin and hit another vehicle with the front and driver side and again the airbag did not deploy. I sustained broken ribs, black eye, bruised jaw, and bruised tailbone. Why didn't my airbag go off to alleviate the injuries to me?
