5 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 01/30/2001

On January 30, 2001 our vehicle was involved in a one car collision with a bridge overpass causing a total loss to our truck. This was mainly a front impact with collatoral damage to the rest of the truck. My wife was in the passenger seat, our son was in a rear seat and all were wearing our seatbelts. Luckily for us the seatbelts did their job and our only injuries were related to the seat belts holding us in place. Although the front of the truck was heavily damaged neither airbag deployed as they should have. Since there were not serious injuries we were not concerned about the airbags not deploying. My nagging concern was what if we had needed them? that is why I've decided to report at this time plus we received no acknowledgement from Ford that they are addressing the problem. Thank you.
