I was driving on freeway I10, exit ramp 4th street santa monica, and the driver airbag deployed and belt stocked. Explosion with no impact.no collision. Was driving at 20 miles a hour or maybe less. Was very scary and get left arms and hand injured. My insurance review and pay for replacement of airbag. But since then, I had no car for 3 weeks, cannot go to work after injuries, under disability loss of wage. Car now has a constant red light engine, electronics system seems messed up with 100 defects signals. Ford dealer santa monica had same week, same incident with a Mustang 2010, airbag exploded with no collision.

I rear ended a large jacked-up truck that had a steel tube bumper at 50mph. The trucks bumper grazed the top of my front bumper and did extensive damage to my front end where the radiator exploded and the hood is touching the engine. But my airbag did not deploy at 50mph! when I hit the truck my car completely shut off right after the impact, but so did my ABS, advancetrac traction control and lights and chimes started to go off. If my car shut down due to the impact at 50mph why didn't my airbags go off? thank goodness no one was injured, but someone else may not be so lucky. With a lot more jacked up trucks and steel pipe bumpers I think Ford and other car manufactures need to Focus on a new safety feature and not just rely on the bottom section of the bumper getting hit for the airbags to deploy. My entire front end is pushed into the engine, but the bumper is intact except some scrapes on the top. I'm just scared to know that the airbags didn't go off at 50mph with that kind of damage on a 2010 vehicle!!
