Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I almost killed in a near fatal collision on january 15, 2007. i was in a 2006 ford fusion sel with front and side airbags. my car was demolished and but for the grace of god i survived despite my failed airbags. i informed ford as you can see they started to deploy and stick out a little. the photos prove they failed. ford is making it difficult to follow through and i have the car being held so it can be inspected. i am afraid they are defective and will result in the death of someone. i was flown by helicopter with severe head injuries and from the pictures, you can see the blood spot where my head cracked the side panel directly below where the airbag should have come out. the impact zones on the car are with out question worthy of making the airbag deploy. please contact me, as i am tired of trying to work with ford because of my concern for the lives of others, and all they want to do is be obstructive. *jb
