F-150

  • 26,838 miles
This pickup truck, owned and operated by a public utility, was involved in a low speed front end collision on a city street. The incident involved the front bumper of the F-150 making abrupt contact with the rear bumper and tailgate of a Nissan frontier pickup. There were no injuries to the driver of either vehicle and no airbags deployed initially. Immediately after the collision, the truck was pulled over to the side of the road, the ignition was switched off, and the 4-way flashers were turned on. The keys were removed from the ignition and the driver exited the vehicle to exchange information with the driver of the other vehicle. While the drivers were exchanging information, approximately 5 minutes after the collision, the driver side airbag deployed. Within a minute or two after the airbag deployed, the interior of the truck erupted in flames, which were reported to have started in the area behind the front seat console. The inside of the cab was engulfed in flames, and the fire spread to the engine compartment and bed. The local fire department responded quickly, but the truck suffered severe fire damage.

When vehicle is in motion and the passenger seat is occupied with an adult passenger who is seated properly and wearing seatbelt the passenger airbag off light occasionally comes on and will stay on for different time frames sometimes minutes or an entire trip before turning itself back on. We have brought the issue to the attention of the dealership on two separate occasions and on both occasions we were told that they tested the system and that it is functioning properly. We have also had a recurring problem with the front driver side tire pressure sensor where the tire was visibly low, and when checked was over 15 lbs low sometimes 20 lbs but the low tire pressure warning never came on. This has happened on several different occasions with the same tire sensor and each time was brought to the attention of the dealership it was purchased through and each time we have been assured that the sensors are working properly. Yet I have had the rear tire on the passenger side be low 5 lbs and the tire pressure sensor informed me that it was low. The tire states 44lbs as the recommendation for maximum inflation, they are the proper tires for the vehicle, and 25 percent would be at least 11 lbs low is my understanding. Yet when I asked if there is a certain loss of pressure that we should be informed by we were told no that some tires might just sense it sooner than other but that they were all working properly. We just wanted to express our concerns as we hope that these systems will function properly if they are needed in an emergency situation.
