problem #2

Dec 152010

Taurus

  • 113,000 miles
The contact owns a 2006 Ford Taurus. The contact had to swerve to avoid a crash after being cut off and lose control of the vehicle at 35 mph; the vehicle crashed into a guard rail with great force. The vehicle slide across and hit another guard rail. The seat belts did not lock and the air bags did not deploy. The contact's head hit the windshield and their chest hit the steering wheel as a result. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who stated that the relay may have been the cause of the non-deployment but could not explain the seat belt failure. The vehicle was destroyed. The current and failure mileages were approximately 113,000.

The front airbag sensor on my 2006 Ford Taurus has failed and is outside the vehicle warranty. The dealership refuses to replace the failed sensor at Ford's cost. The airbags have never deployed on the vehicle.
