This accident didn-??t involve myself. It involved my father who borrowed my 2011 Ford Flex for the evening. This was a one vehicle accident. It is unknown what happened to cause him to Swerve and hit a hit. The air bags didn-??t deploy in the Vehicle. My father was wearing his seatbelt. An electric fire started and the car burnt along with my father he wasn-??t able to be pulled from the vehicle before it caught fire. According to the witnesses, the airbags did not go off. My father had blunt trauma to the chest and to his frontal lobe and broken ribs. In addition to lots of other injuries that would-??ve been avoided if the airbags would have went off. My father could-??ve been alive if the airbags went off. But instead, he is dead. The pain and suffering and Trauma that I live through every day of my life of missing my father has been unbearable this past year. I 100% believe the fire started from the air bags not going off and it was faulty wiring in this vehicle. I believe this whole Heartedly. My father Didn-??t deserve to die this way. I have a flash drive of the scene with pictures taken by the Missouri State Highway patrol that has been certified. I can send as Evidence as well. I have not viewed this flash drive as it would be too traumatic for me to view them of my father. I do not want to picture him like that. But I feel this case needs to be investigated. I no longer can be OK with this situation. The insurance company never inspected it. My insurance company was the General- Full Coverage- also the vehicle had a lean on it with Car Mart. Not sure if anyone inspected the vehicle after the accident. I know the Missouri house patrol did a full investigation. It set at at tow yard for months in Columbia, Mo. There were multiple people on the scene. Macon Co. ambulance, Macon Co. fire and rescue Macon Co. corners office which they called wrong time of death Which letters to believe my father wasn-??t dead yet From the accident. The air bags could have saved HIM!!!!!!

On 2100 hrs 21 Nov 2015, my daughter was involved in a deer strike accident on hwy 36 vicinity hamilton, Missouri. She was traveling East on the highway 36 at 55-60 mph when a deer ran into the path of the car. The impact was from center line of the car towards the drivers side. She applied the brakes upon seeing the deer but the strike and application of brakes were pretty much simultaneous. She pulled the car off the road and couldn't exit the driver's door because the front fender overlapping the door due to impact. The airbag did not deploy, she was wearing her seat belt which probably saved her from any major injuries. Based upon the frontal damage to the vehicle the airbag should have deployed. As you can see in the attached photos the frame and internal bumper are exposed approximately a foot beyond the body which has been crushed back. In my opinion it appears that there was enough frontal force which should have deployed the airbag. I therefore feel the airbag was defective and created a significant safety issue.
