Why build vehicles that have problem. You should make sure before that vehicle is working right no sooner it comes off the line... people need to make sure this vehicles are in great shape, should take pride in their job and do it right....they are hiring young people to take over jobs so they can pay them less, when you pay less they don't give a sh*t.....

Air bags did not deployed on this truck, and I do believe with my heart if the air bags would have came out it would saved his life...... anti lock brakes on these trucks are junk.... when these trucks hit the grass its over..... i just want to know if any one has had these problem? This truck has 4 air bags and none deployed none... it was a roll over crash.....breaks my heart that they want to accuse the driver of negligence and want to file charges...

When you pay that much for a vehicle you expect it to work completely... damn thing should be trimmed in gold and work like a top......... very sadden that someone died in this crash.. No this person was not wearing a seat belt, but if that airbag would have came out, it would have kept him in the vehicle...just never know..... how many other people have had problems with the air bags, well hell how would you know if you have a problem unless you have wrecked a vehicle..... things we don't know unless been wrecked.. yes we all try to avoid not wrecking but freak accidents happen, its uncontrollable......... thanks for reading please leave your opinion...
