Expedition

  • 70,000 miles
Traffic on hwy came to a sudden stop from around 60 mph. I applied the brakes very hard and came to a safe stop. The vehicle behind me did not stop and rear ended me at a high rate of speed. There were 3 passengers in my vehicle, all wearing seatbelts, and not a single airbag went off!!! the sensors to prevent car from starting after an accident activated and car would not start. Because my foot was firmly on the brake still at time of impact, there were no life threatening injuries, but were some injury. The nys police at the scene were surprised the airbags did not go off.

This vehicle was in an accident with a semi truck on a surface street. Both vehicles were in motion; the semi turned into our vehicle. The entire driver side front quarter panel and a pillar were destroyed, the front bumper sustained significant damage, and the B and C pillars on the driver side along with parts of the doors were impacted. The vehicle was a total loss, my wife required emergency care, and the Expedition sustained over 25K in damage but the airbags never deployed. None of the first responders could understand why based on their experience responding to accidents. I attempted to contact Ford directly about this over two weeks ago but have gotten zero response to date.
