I was involved in a front end collision [XXX] that caused my vehicle to be totaled and me to be transported to the hospital via an ambulance. I purchased the vehicle with the understanding that it had numerous safety features including airbags throughout. During this accident my impact completely crumpled my engine compartment and left portions of my engine were left lying around. The only airbag to deploy was the skirt one below the steering wheel column. The curtain one over my driver door and the steering wheel one did not deploy. I sustained a concussion, post concussion syndrome, chest wall injury, hematoma and abrasions to my left arm and both legs. The bruises sustained to my abdomen make it look like I am still wearing my seatbelt. The post concussion syndrome has caused me memory loss for the entire day, before and after the accident other than a moment here or there. I cannot remember the accident or what led up to it. I continue to have headaches and nausea. I am really just looking for answers on why my other airbags did not deploy. Ford has declined to inspect the airbags unless I agree to have the vehicle brought to one of their inspection locations.

I own a 2018 Ford EcoSport, and I-??ve been experiencing an issue with the swing gate. While driving, I-??ll randomly get a notification that the gate is ajar, even though I haven-??t opened it. If the vehicle is locked, the gate stays shut, but if it-??s unlocked, the swing gate will sometimes open while I-??m on the road. This issue happens more often when I-??m driving on bumpy or uneven surfaces. It-??s become a frequent problem, and I-??m concerned about the safety risk.
Tailgate door unlatches while driving making the door ajar warning light appear on dash. The door has flung open, while driving. But usually only Makes internal cabin lights turn on. Door opens. While driving. Potentially can cause things to fall out of car while driving, could cause a wreck with cars behind me. It has not been recreated on command, but has happened many times. Dealership has inspected multiple times but no solution or anything found.the door ajar warning light comes on when the door latch fails. Warning light only appears when the issue happens. This happens once a week at least for the last 2 years
