2001 FORD RANGER EV

ON FEBRUARY 11, 2005 MY FATHER WAS DRIVING HIS 2001 FORD RANGER WHEN HE SUFFERED A HEART ATTACK. AS A RESULT OF THE HEART ATTACK MY DAD HIT A TREE HEAD ON WITH THE FORD RANGER. THE TRUCK SUFFERED CATASTROPHIC FRONTAL DAMAGE WHICH ULTIMATELY WAS CONSIDERED A TOTAL LOSS BY MY DAD'S INSURANCE COMPANY. DESPITE THE EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE, THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. MY DAD NEVER REVIVED AND WAS PRONOUNCED DEAD APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR LATER AT THE LOCAL HOSPITAL. *JB

I WAS INVOLVED IN A RECENT ACCIDENT WHERE I WAS HIT IN MY 2001 FORD RANGER WHILE STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION. MY VEHICLE WAS SLAMMED INTO FROM THE BACK BY AN SUV AND KNOCKED INTO A SMALL TOYOTA TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME WHO WAS ALSO STOPPED AT THE IINTESECTION. MY TRUCK WAS TOTALED WITH THE TRUCK BED LOOKING LIKE AN INVERTED V WITH FRONT BUMPER AND HOOD DAMAGE AND A FLUID LEAK. NEITHER THE DRIVER OF PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED EVEN AFTER BEING HIT THAT HARD FROM BOTH FRONT AND BACK.*AK
