I hit another vehicle in the passenger side head on at 55+ MPH and the air bag did not deploy. Air bags in the other vehicle did deploy. No prior warning. Police, wrecker driver, and others questioned why the bags did not deploy. I had neck, back, arm, chest and hand injuries. Accident report annotated that the air bags did not deploy.

The Blindspot system, cross tragic system, airbags, and climate control all were disabled intermittently. Climate control disabled allowed my windows to fog up impairing visibility which posed immediate danger of collisions. I read an online forum and found that my tail light had water in it which created a short to all those systems.

My wife and I were stopped at a stoplight in hot springs Arkansas on March 8, 2022. Another vechicle ran into us almost head on at an estimated 30 mph. There was considerable damage to the front end of our truck. The air bags did not deploy. We were taken to the hospital. My wife has some broken bones in her back and has experienced significant pain since the accident.

I was involved in an accident in my new Ford F-150 king ranch on the above date traveling on the henry hudson parkway (manhattan) southbound. My truck was struck in the rear passenger door by an unknown vehicle and caused us to spin out 2 times at 60 mph and hit the center concrete divider almost directly head on. We hit to the passenger side of the front of the truck.. the airbags didn't deploy. The canisters on the side impact airbags opened and the powder was all over but the bags didn't deploy. I don't think this was normal and I feel it should be looked at. There was $31,000 damage to the vehicle which wasn't totaled. Is this something that this Agency will look into for me? respectfully submitted, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
