| My son was in an accident 2 days ago and his air bags did not deploy. he center punched a lamp pole and totaled his truck. 2004 ford f150. he has major whip lash, and hopefully that's all, but i believe it's because he had his seat belt on and it did it's job. had the airbag deployed, it might have stopped him from being thrown as hard. *jb | |||

| Dt: was driving to work wearing seat belt and heard a click or pop from the seat belt near the shoulder of where the belt came out. consumer thought it sounded mechanical in nature. pulled at seat belt, there was no locking. after taking off seat belt, the seat belt did not retract. no repairs. called 2 dealers, and they were of no help, but suggested to bring the vehicle to shop after the weekend for repairs. had not contacted ford customer service at this time but consumer planned to do so. *ak | |||

| Tailgate straps are the same length, but when you put pressure on the tailgate, only the lh tailgate strap supports the tailgate. the truck has vibration and steering wheel nibble problems. they have balanced the tires 4 times, replaced the tires. the fse from ford took the vehicle for a ride and said it needs a new driveshaft. the brake dust is a big problem. you need to wash the wheels daily. ford now has updated pads. i hope they replace them under warranty. two of the rotors are also grooved. the truck has 3000 miles on it. it has been in 5+ times now! the ac unit only had 22 ounces of fliud in it. it is supposed to have 30+. my air was verified to be 8-10 degrees warmer than spec. the gas door (spring) broke. the paint on the hood is flawed. it didn't get fully sprayed on the right front of the hood. both sides of the rear diff. are wet. something is leaking. the seatbelt stitching is coming apart.*ak | |||
