2013 Ford Edge Air Bags & Restraints Problems

The airbags did not deploy when the car was in a front and rear end collision on 2/12/26. Injuries occurred. No one has confirmed the problem. The car was taken to a Collison center to be evaluated but am uncertain if that part has been evaluated. There were not symptoms of failure beforehand.

Was going 70 mph (speed limit) and hit a deer, car was totaled. Upon impact my seatbelt locked up and I smelled smoke, but the airbags didn't actually deploy. No warning signs or prior issues known.

On April 7th my seat belt receiver (where the seat belt clicks into) broke. It broke with just normal wear and tear, my car has 83K+ miles. The seatbelt would not fully engage and the seatbelt light was coming on every two minutes while driving. I called Downtown Ford (Sacramento) and they said that because my car was outside their 60,000 mile or five year warranty that this part was not covered. I paid to have the part replaced which cost $95.81 for the part and $221 an hour for labor. The total was $324.19

Passenger Seatbelt locks when pulling out to buckle and rear seatbelt behind driver seat will not lock in the seat belt lock.

On 5-6-22 at 9:30PM I crashed into a deer that ran onto the road. I totaled my vehicle. My airbags did not deploy. I went to ER. I have a concussion.

1/19/2021 HAD ACCIDENT ON I85 HIGHWAY CHARLOTTE NC. WHEN I BRAKE AT 50 MILES FOR TRYING AVOID ACCIDENT CAR DIDN'T STOP AS SOON AS. BUT I HIT MY HEAD FIRST BEFORE THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED.. MY FOREHEAD IS BLACK AND BLUE STILL AFTER A WEEK OF THE ACCIDENT

I HAD A 20 MILE AN HR FRONT END WRECK AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY IN CHILLICOTHE MISSOURI ON NORTH 65 HIGHWAY

THE DASH AREA WHERE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS LOCATED HAS BEGUN TO CRACK. THE ENTIRE RIGHT SIDE OF THE AIR BAG SQUARE HAS SEPARATED. ALSO, WHEN STOPPING THE VEHICLE AT A STOP LIGHT, IN TRAFFIC, ETC., THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE, ESPECIALLY IF THE FUEL TANK IS LESS THAN FULL.

I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND THE AIRBAG INJURED MY CHEST AND SHOULDER AND CHEST. THEE SEAT BELT CUT MY NECK . I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FORDS ALL MY LIFE AND WAS A SATISFIED CUSTOMER. BUT AFTER THAT ACCIDENT I WAS SCARD BECAUSE THE DASH BOARD DROPPED DOWN. I NOW QUESTION MY SAFETY IN A FORD EDGE. I WAS DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 35 MILES AN HOUR.

FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS THE MESSAGE KEPT COMING ON THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS NOT WORKING. THE ON/OFF LIGHT SAID OFF ABOUT 98% OF THE TIME. AND A ICON LIGHT IN THE DASHBOARD WOULD OCCASIONALLY COME ON. THE MESSAGE SAID THE SENSOR WAS BLOCKED, BUT THERE WASN'T ANY CHANGE IN THE AREA AROUND THE SEAT. WENT TO SERVICE THE 2/19 AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. IT ACTUALLY TURNED BACK ON WHEN I DROVE IN TO DROP IT AT SERVICE, OF COURSE. BUT WE DID GO ABOUT 3 DAYS WITH NO AIRBAG FOR SOME REASON. JUST FELT I SHOULD REPORT THIS BEFORE IT BECOMES A PROBLEM. *TR
