During the failure, the contact lost control of the vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was filed. No injuries were sustained, and medical attention was not required. The vehicle was towed to an impound lot and deemed totaled. The contact received a notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V905000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING), the VIN was included, and the contact associated the failure with the recall consequence.

I was involved in a front end collision [XXX] that caused my vehicle to be totaled and me to be transported to the hospital via an ambulance. I purchased the vehicle with the understanding that it had numerous safety features including airbags throughout. During this accident my impact completely crumpled my engine compartment and left portions of my engine were left lying around. The only airbag to deploy was the skirt one below the steering wheel column. The curtain one over my driver door and the steering wheel one did not deploy. I sustained a concussion, post concussion syndrome, chest wall injury, hematoma and abrasions to my left arm and both legs. The bruises sustained to my abdomen make it look like I am still wearing my seatbelt. The post concussion syndrome has caused me memory loss for the entire day, before and after the accident other than a moment here or there. I cannot remember the accident or what led up to it. I continue to have headaches and nausea. I am really just looking for answers on why my other airbags did not deploy. Ford has declined to inspect the airbags unless I agree to have the vehicle brought to one of their inspection locations.

Can't open the hood either the latch or the cord is broken. It's very dangerous to drive the car while the engine oil is due to change. The latch or the cord is very defective. Also, airbag has been staying on the dashboard for a long time.

I was just parking my car in a spot in my parking lot in front of my apartment. All of a sudden my car took at a fast speed. I could not stop it. I went over two curbs and hit a tree. Finally it stopped. Now it may be totalled. I looked up the recall of this car, and it said my car has a problem that could cause the engine and power brakes to fail while driving. My insurance company thinks it is my fault, but I think this proves differently. Please advise. I never got a notice about this recall. I could have been killed if my car hit the tree head on. thanks, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER WERE INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT ON MARCH 14 2018, THEY GOT HIT PRETTY GOOD IN ALL ANGLES OF THE CAR. THE CAR WAS DECLARED TOTAL LOSS. MY CONCERN IS .. WHY, ANY OF THE AIR BAGS ON THE CAR DEPLOYED ? NONE OF THE AIRBAGS, EVEN THE ONES ON THE SIDES, WENT OFF. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER SHIP, THEY TOLD ME THE CAR NEEDS TO BE CRASH IN THE FRONT AREA IN ORDER TO DEPLOY. HERE COMES MY CONCERN, IS THAT A GOOD SAFETY SYSTEM FOR THIS VEHICLE? I AM NOW GOING TO TRY TO GET ANOTHER VEHICLE SINCE IAM WITHOUT ONE RIGHT NOW. THE VEHICLE WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY AT 60 MILES WHEN THIS HAPPENED, IT HAPPENED IN THE HIGHWAY. THE OTHER DRIVER WAS AT FAULT. POLICE REPORT STATES IT.
