25 mph mild frontal collision caused a fire to start in the door panel as identified by the driver and the fire dept. The fire caused a majority of the cabin to burn and the vehicle to become a total loss in under a minute. Front airbags deployed but not side airbags. Electrical system in left door possibly malfunctioned causing a fire, evident by the fire reigniting every time the fire fighter ceased using the fire extinguisher. Driver was right next to the damaged electrical and was almost hurt by the fire, almost resulting in severe burns or death to the driver had they not escaped the cabin a few seconds before ignition. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others. There were no warning lamps or messages prior to the failure.

When vehicle sits in hot sun while parked not in operation the airbag light will stay on when car is started. It stays on until car is driven for about 10 mins or so and the car is turned off and back on. This only happens on hot sunny days.

I purchased this vehicle in December 2015. I received a notice in the mail from Ford shortly after purchase telling me about the defective air bags. I should have been advised at purchase of this defect. I have waited patiently for over two years for a notice to take my car in to replace the air bags. I ask at each service at the dealer and receive the same answer: I must wait until Ford contacts me. This car is my wife's primary work vehicle. I am guessing that Ford will never make good on their promise to replace these defective air bags.

I bought a 2016 Ford Mustang in April 2016 its a great car. I had an accident and the air bags got deployed luckily nothing happened to me. The vehicle was repaired at russell and smith collision center in houston, tx for 51 days at a cost of 18000$ (car cost 34000$). on the 26th of March 2017 a guy skipped a red signal and came into the middle of an intersection so I had to crash into him at a speed of 50 mph. This time no airbags got deployed. Its only by gods grace that I am not harmed. I tried complaining to people at Ford but all I am getting is a run around from their customer care representatives. All I want to know why my driver airbag did not deploy even at that speed.

I have some serious concerns about the safety ratings, specifically the 2 star rating after the crash tests conducted by the european NCAP and the australian ancap. These crash tests show that the front airbags did not inflate sufficiently to avoid head injuries. When I was first test driving the 2016 Mustang, the window sticker had a 5 star safety rating by the NHTSA.
