Navigator

While traveling 50 mph in the Lincoln, another driver attempted to make an illegal left turn in front of the Navigator resulting in immediate severe collision. The front impact destroyed the front end of the Lincoln, and also caused it to spin 180 degress resulting in a second collision with the at fault driver. The driver airbag did not deploy and resulted in severe injury to the driver.

05' Navigator. Air bags didn't deploy on impact. Moments after impact, as a precaution I pulled parking brake, but vehicle rolled back and caused a 2nd impact. As a result, I was hospitalized for chest/head/ankle/knee related injuries. Manufacturer took no responsibility, when my lawyer inquired on this matter.
