Was T-Boned in the passenger side of the truck which changed my direction of travel resulting in hitting a tree head on. Neither frontal air bags deployed. The frontal impact was hard enough to push the tree 18 to 20 inches into the engine compartment bending the frame where the front bumper was attached. The accident resulted in a fatality. I'm just confused why neither air bag deployed. I have had this truck since it was new so I know it's history. There was not any warnings lights on, No air bag warning lights, No modifications were ever done to the truck. All stock. There was never any indication that the air bags were not operating normal. So Why did they malfunction?
On Monday May 12 I was involved in a car accident. I am concerned because my air bad did not activate. I was driving a 2001 Ford F250, going around 40-45 miles per hour. I ran into the back of a person that was sitting stopped at a red light. I never hit my brakes so I hit her straight in the rear. Why type of impact does it take for the sensor to go off for air bags?
