| Description of the problem | I was involved in a low speed frontal collision with my 2009 ford f150 pick up. The collision was off center left with another ford f150 (1993-1994 model). The speed of the vehicles was less than 40 mph as the collision happened on a hilly and twisting road. My vehicle caught fire on impact and was completely engulfed in just over a minute. My drivers door would not open and i had to exit the vehicle on the passenger side. My wife and i were not injured as the air bags and seat belts worked properly. We never made contact with the air bags and sustained no seat belt bruising or other injuries. |
