2014 Ford Fiesta Seat belts Problems

“Went to stop hit the brake peddle and the car did not slow down, I pumped the brakes then hit them again still the car did not slow down, I impacted the rear of a truck, a fire started under hood in front of the driver's side at the windshield area, the steering wheel air bag didn't deploy nor did the seat belt lock, causing me to hit the steering wheel with my chest. Car was traveling aprox. 35 MPH.”

“My son hit slammed on his brakes to avoid hitting the car in front of him who had slammed on their brakes, hit a patch of black ice and slammed directly into the rear end of the vehicle in front of him. Only the air bag by his feet went off. None of the other air bags deployed. The seatbelt also did not lock up immediately. He sustained a concussion, left shoulder injury, neck pain, and bruising to his chest and abdomen from the steering wheel. He had to be transported to the hospital by ambulance. The car is totaled and is in a salvage lot on hold for a week in case you want to look at it.”

“I was involved in a hit and run accident where I ended up hitting a large wooden pole and wall . My seat belt failed also my steering wheel airbag did not deploy even though I hit the pole and wall head on . All my other airbags deployed but it didn't stop my chest from impacting.the steering wheel and my right knee from smashing into the dashboard. The car was inspected by law enforcement and by my insurance company geico. Geico still has the car because it was a total loss.”

“Seat Belt retractor/pretensioner failed and was causing the passenger seatbelt light to go off. Had to repair due to automatic failing of inspection for this issue and the major safety issue this poses. Auto shop charged me $784.82 for today's repair and over $300 (don't remember exact amount, if claim moves forward I will contact them for another copy of that invoice) for a different repair on the seatbelt. I called Ford and they told me their 5 Year/60K warranty on the car expired. …”
