2012 Ford Focus air bags problems

“My car was sitting ,in the driveway of my,home it was t-boned after which it spun around 90 degrees,it was damaged severely.The air bags did not deploy,I think they should've deployed. The car went to the shop and it has not been properly repaired,the body is structurally distorted ,and some of the mechanisms related to suspension and the trailing axle aren't properly installed or repaired.”

“MY TWO SONS WERE TURNING LEFT WHEN THEY WERE T-BONED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. MY SONS VEHICLE WAS STRUCK IN THE RIGHT REAR. THE SIDE AIR BAGS WENT OFF BUT NOT THE TWO FRONTS. ALSO THEIR SEAT BELTS DID NOT TIGHTEN. BC OF THIS BOTH SONS SUFFERED TBI'S, ONE VERY SEVERE AND IS STILL RECOVERING. THE OTHER REQUIRED BRAIN SURGERY. I AM SO UPSET THAT THEIR SEAT BELT DID NOT TIGHTEN. I BOUGHT A NEWER FORD THINKING IT WAS GOING TO BE SAFE. PLEASE SOMEONE FIX THIS DEFECT. I HAD NO IDEA THAT THIS COULD EVER HAPPEN. THEY WERE HIT FROM THE OTHER PERSON GOING 45 MPH SO IT SHOULD HAVE TIGHTENED. SAD MOMMA. LIVES CHANGED FOREVER. :( [XXX]*DT PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).”

“I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND MY CAR SLIDE ACROSS A HIGHWAY, HIT A MEDIAN, AND CAME TO A STOP HITTING A TREE HEAD ON. IT DEMOLISHED THE DRIVERS SIDE AND NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. I UNHOOKED MY SEAT BELT AND MERELY LEANED AGAINST THE DOOR. TO MY SURPRISE, IT OPENED BY ITSELF AND I FELL OUT. CONSEQUENTLY I WAS LAYING IN THE SNOW AND MUD FOR 5 MINUTES BEFORE A GOOD SAMARITAN PULLED ME OUT OF THE MUD. I SUBMITTED MY CAR TO A FORD DEALER/BODYSHOP TO CORRECT ANY RECALLS LAST YEAR, AND I HAVE PROOF THAT THIS WASN'T DONE PROPERLY. NOW I HAVE I HURT DISK IN MY BACK AS WELL AS LITTLE MOBILITY IN MY LEFT LEG.*DT*JB”

“THIS WAS A RECALL ALREADY THAT IS HAZARDOUS TO ALL DRIVERS ON THE ROAD INCLUDONG THE DRIVER. THE CAR WILL STALL,STUDDER,AND GIVE NO POWER WHEN PULLING OFF. I CANT UNDERSTAND HOW SOMETHING SO DANGEROUS THAT ALSO COST ME MY LIFE WOULD HAVE A LIMITED WARRANTY ON A SAFTEY RECALL. THIS SHOULD BE A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THIS. BECAUSE THEY CAIM TO FIX THE ISSUE BUT IF IT CONTINUES TO BREAK DOWN AFTER 2 MONTHS 3 MONTHS. WHY IS THEIR A LIMITED TIME FRAME ON SAFETY RECALL AND THE SAFTEY OF DRIVERS AND THE OWNER.THIS HAS CAUSED ACCIDENT TO OTHERS. BECAUSE WHEN A RECALL IS DONE. YOU BELIEVE THE ISSUE IS FIXED. IT SHOULD CONTINUE TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THEN THE LIMITED WARRANTY IS UP. NOW YOU'RE STUCK WITH A SAFETY HAZARDOUS CAR THAT IS DANGEROUS TO PUT ON THE ROAD. PLEASE HELP. I DID STALL ON THE ROAD I HAD TO GET THE CAR TOWED. I WAS STALLED DUE TO THIS RECALL. NOW IT'S HAPPENING ABOUT. DRIVERS SAFETY SHOULDNT HAVE A LIMIT THIS OTHER INCIDENT OCCURRED DUE TO THEIR WARRANTY NOT HOLDING UP WITH KEEPING THE ROADS SAFE. THE SAME SAFETY RECALL IS NOW STARTING TO CAUSE ROAD HAZARDOUS ISSUES AGAIN THAT WILL BE UNSAFE FOR THE ROAD AND MYSELF. THE CARS NOT EVEN 10 YEARS OLD.”

“MY FORD FOCUS HAS BEEN HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW. I HAVE ASKED FORD TO LOOK AT MY CAR AND THEY STATED IT WILL BE $150 TO DO THAT. I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY. MY MAJOR CONCERN IS THE AIR BAGS. MY LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING OFF AND ON AND I DO NOT THINK THE AIR BAGS WILL EMPLOY. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON YOUR WEB SITE AND ONLINE AS WELL. SOME CARS HAVE BEEN IN ACCIDENTS AND HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND AIRBAGS DID NOT EMPLOY. I AM TERRIFIED THIS WILL HAPPEN AND NOT SAVE A LIFE. I HAVE AN AUTISTIC 13 YR OLD THAT RIDES IN THE PASSENGER SIDE AND MYSELF ARE VERY CONCERNED!. ALSO I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING ONLINE A BIG ISSUE WITH THE ELECTRICAL IN THE MIDDLE ISLE WHICH CONTROLS THE RADIO AND AIRBAGS AND WHATEVER OTHER WARNING LIGHTS AND CONTROLS MAY BE. MY RADIO SHORTED OUT WITH LOUD POPPING AND SRCREEHING NOSE THEN BLEW OUT. I THINK THE ELECTRICAL IS ALL BAD IN THE UNIT WHICH MAY BE EFFECTING THE AIRBAGS. PLEASE I AM ASKING FOR A VERY CONCERNED SAFETY CONCERN TO SAVE A LIFE REGARDING THE AIRBAGS PLEASE LOOK INTO A RECALL REGARDING THIS. I AM NOT THE FIRST ONE THO COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I DO HAVE PICTURES WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON AND…”
