A 2002 ford f-150 struck a 1996 chevy blazer in the right rear, there for having damage to the front and front left quarter panel of the f-150. The impact was hard enough to roll the blazer over on to its top. My concern is that the air bags in both vehicles did not deploy the f-150 was traveling at a speed of +40mph at the time of impact, the blazer was at a parked stop.

While driving down a 2 lane road in my 2002 ford f-150 "harley davison" pick-up truck doing the posted speed limit (50 MPH), I quickly tried to avoid from rearending a mid-model 1990 ford aerostar passenger van, at a speed between 35-45mph.

While attempting to park my truck in a parking lot during the winter month of january, I had to maneuver over a small snow pile the size of a speed bump. After spinning my tires in four wheel drive on the slick snowy parking lot, the trucks front tires finally made it over the bump from a parked position. As soon as the truck came to a sudden stop on the other side of the bump, both front airbags deployed. Theconsequences of the deployment are that my insurance will not cover the accident because it was a non-collision accident and that the value of my truck now is 6,000 dollars less than it was with air bags. To correct the failure I have contacted ford motor company and have had no such luck in anyone assumiong responsibility for the cause of the airbag failure.

While traveling in my f150 truck at 65 MPH(cruise control set) I was totally blinded by the sun and rear ended a ford focus. My wife and I were wearing our seatbelts. Neither airbag deployed which "would have reduced my wife's injuries" (her physician). The hood of my f150 was buckled leading me to believe that the sensor should have activated the airbag. How can we be certain, if the vehicle is repaired, that the airbags will deploy under similiar circumstances?
