| Description of the problem | While driving brand new 2015 f150xlt supercrew with 6. 5ft bed i was full stopped about 20ft behind a car that was waiting for another car to turn as i looked up in rear view mirror saw another truck coming behind me down hill at approximatley 45mph the speed limit on the state route 2 lane just before entering town. I heard him lock up his brakes and slam into the back of my truck pushing me 15 to 20ft slamming me into the suv in front of me hitting me at dead stop square on in the back driving me square on into vehicle infront of me, no airbag ever deployed i was thrust agianst the steering wheel in a snapping action. The impact was so forcefull it moved the supercrew back seat from the down position to the full upright and locked in place position agianst the back of the cab. The truck was only 6 days old with 370 miles on it. With that impact front and back i would think airbags would have deployed. The force of the impact bent the frame down in the back and bent the frame up in the front see the attached pictures. |
