    I was in a single vehicle accident february 23, 2015 where i slid off an icy back road causing significant front end damage which was repaired at milnes ford in lapeer, mi. Due to the amount of damage the airbags should have deployed but they never did. I now have a bulged disk in my neck and another in my lumbar spine. A later computer scan for a separate issue indicated the airbags did not deploy as they should…

I stepped on the brake to shift to the park position when all of a sudden the car jolted forward accelerating in a forceful manner( like it had a mind of its own). I keep pressing down on the brake but the car would not stop and keep going straight and hit the fence on front of the parking space causing the car to…

    I am driving a potentially deadly automobile. I do not care if tekata does not have enough airbag replacements. Then ford should give me a safe car until they get replacement bags. Do their new cars have safe airbags? Then stop selling the new cars and fix the already purchased cars! Why does our government force me to drive a deadly car while ford still makes profit on new sales?
