| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My daughter was driving my 2000 mercury cougar on september 25 ,2006. when another vehicle went through a stop sign &they collided. she hit him with her front end & then proceeded to swerve head on into a telephone pole . so this makes two front end collisions & the air bags never deployed. in fact she had another accident in sept 2003 where a car went through a red light and hit her,but that was a side impact & again this air bag did not deploy. so this has been three incidents that this air bag did not deploy & this past one on monday was front end collision & my daughter has damage to her chest & rib cage , which could have been avoided if the air bags worked properly! *nm |
