2022 Ford Edge Airbags Problems

You were in a front-end collision at 40 MPH, and only the driver-side knee airbags deployed—the front and side airbags did not inflate. You suffered serious injuries including chest pain and an injury to your carotid artery that required hospitalization overnight. The airbag system may not have functioned as designed during this crash, and the vehicle has not yet been inspected by Ford or diagnosed for the cause.

Your Ford Pass app warned you that your airbag system wasn't functioning and told you not to drive the vehicle. When you took it to the dealer, the warning light had turned off, and the technician couldn't identify the problem—they told you to keep driving and come back only if the warning appears again. Ford and the dealer both said they can't diagnose or repair the issue without the warning light actively showing, which conflicts with the app's initial safety warning.

Your 2022 Ford Edge's front airbags failed to deploy in two separate crashes—once during a T-bone collision at an intersection and again when the vehicle hit a tree on black ice. In the first crash, you sustained injuries to your shoulder and hip that required surgery, and the driver's side door was crushed shut. In the second crash, there were no injuries but the passenger-side mirror was damaged. The airbags should have deployed in both impact events to help protect you and your passengers. This likely requires a full diagnostic of the airbag system and may involve replacement of airbag modules, sensors, or wiring.

Swerved to miss deer and ended in a ditch and all the airbags deployed except for the steering wheel airbag.
