Frontal accident and steering wheel airbag never deployed while the leg airbag did deploy . Driving on a main street and a worktruck all of a sudden stopped. Car was totaled by my insurance company.
Violent left side collision (t bone type) by high powered 400 hp 1995 Chevrolet comaro going through a stop sign, accelerating across four lanes, then leaving the scene of the accident. I was not injured. The car was significantly damaged. The car was pushed perpendicular and partly rotated. There were two eye witnesses. After a moment of recovery I gave chase and caught the driver in a driveway several blocks down wisconsin Ave in tampa florida. Called police and my insurance company usaa. I was the only occupant. Air bags did not deploy. I reported this to Ford and regional service manager seemed to take great interest initially and said she would have air bags thoroughly evaluated after collision repair. After repair, a month later, I called her and she delayed responding for three weeks, finally responding after many calls to Ford customer service center. She said air bags were checked by greenway Ford where I had collision repaired. This was not true and a lie. Service was not aware of possible non deployment of side airbags when front passenger seat was unoccupied. Service checked alignment only. Further pressing Ford to follow through with their initial directions to have air bags evaluated has resulted in Ford refusing to evaluate side air bag function relative to not deploying as a result of this violent side collision. I am reporting this to you because I have doubt whether the side air bags in my Ford Fiesta 2014 and a second Ford Fiesta 2014, ([xxx]), I purchased after the accident, may not have functional side air bag deployment with the right front seat unoccupied, a potential safety risk for occupants of the rear seat. If I can help with any additional information regarding my accident please do not hesitate to contact me at [xxx] or [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
