On this day a truck cut in front of us in heavy traffic where I hit his bumper and no damage was done to his. But my car took damage from the impact and my husband recieved trauma from the passenger airbag that put him in the hospital for four days with trauma to his right eye. He was in his seatbelt and was knocked out with blood trauma to his righteye that cause permanent nerve damage. The attorney's we have had has been disbarred and paidoff by Ford/Mercury and their was a airbag expert by the name of jack out of lufkin Texas and we need his report to be compensated for the malfuction of the airbags and for the company to claim responsibility and pay for thier error. Prior to this my airbags had been scheduled to be replaced in Louisiana in Jul 1997. But the dealership recieved my airbags over 3 months after I had left the state so there was something wrong with these airbags and the company never notified me of the danger, please help me if I can get the inspectors report, I will be able to have the proof to win my case.
