Crash Test 2006 2007 Ford Fusion / Lincoln MKZ (Front) IIHS

[JVB96203]

The only thing they have to fix is the right leg protection

[Annihilator1111]

the 2007-2009 Lincoln MKZ was assembled in

Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico

[Annihilator1111]

the 2006-2009 Ford Fusion US was assembled in

Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico

[damnfoolstoday]

Ford is good, Chevy is good, Dodge is good, Toyota sucks.

[dell5271994]

@damnfoolstoday i agree but ford is the best.

[Adubleyou]

haha volvo is owned by ford, they sold it then volvo finally got good models

[komahoby]

chevy malibu does better that this piece of ford shit

[Zinizzle]

@komahoby hahah are you kidding me? do you see how low the Chevy Malibu is rated? And why consumer reports rated Ford the best US. auto manufacturer? And why the Ford Fusion is rated the highest (much higher then average) Partially due to it's shared Japanese parts. And GM has a poor sorry reputation for building cheap unreliable junk.

[SteelCity1981]

You have to be the biggest fucking , immature, stupid son of a bitch that I have ever ran into on youtube. You will sit their and rate this car insufficient in frontal protection over one thing even though both the IIHS and the NHSTA both rated this car acceptable in the frontal a carsh overall. I think they know a hell of a lot more about crash test then your stupid ignorant ass does.

[CaptainKhrenov]

"You have stated a few times on here that because the fusion scored poorly in one area you deemed it as poor"

why do you have to lie, fucking scumbag??

nope bitch, I merely argued that you're completely wrong, on THIS PARTICULAR FRONT CRASH TEST when you wanted to repeat THE EXACT SAME TEST! as you said, "senerio", you fucking clown!

again, for the 100s time, if the test indicates insufficient protection it altogether PROVES that the protection is insufficient.

you're a fucking lying retard

[SteelCity1981]

NHTSA website

NHTSA rates crash-tested vehicles by assigning them one to five stars, with five stars indicating the most injury protection and one star indicating the least protection.

Fusion ***

Fusion w/SAB  ****

[SteelCity1981]

IIHS website

The 06 Fusion tested with side impact airebags.

Head protection:

Driver — The dummy's head was protected from being hit by any hard structures, including the intruding barrier, by a side curtain airbag OVERALL EVALUATION: [A]

06 Fusion tested without side impact airbags.

Head protection:

Driver — The dummy's head was hit by the intruding barrier. This hit produced moderately high head injury OVERALL EVALUATION [P]

[SteelCity1981]

Right from the Myride website.

"The 2006 Ford Fusion without side impact airbags scored an overall rating of poor in the side impact test. Later that year Ford asked the IIHS to retest the 2006 Ford Fusion with side impact airbags and the overall rating for the Ford Fusion with side impact airbags scored an acceptable rating."

[SteelCity1981]

I'm lying what proof do you have that' i'm lying go to myrides website idiot. That's proof. You truly are a netal case. Just wehn i though you were trying to be civil you go back to your old mental ways. Damn and to think i was starting to show a little respect for you. I don't care what you suspect i've got website to back my shit up, what do you have?

[SteelCity1981]

You have stated a few times on here that because the fusion scored poorly in one area you deemed it as poor, thus is why I stated how can you base a cars entire safety performance on one flaw? Take a look at the 06 Fusion with and without airbags on the side on the IIHS org website. It paints almost a night and day pic between the 06 fusion with airbags and the 06 fusion without, which is why the IIHS scored the 06 without poor and the 06 with them acceptable.

[SteelCity1981]

I'm not ignoring anything, does it look like i'm ignoring it? I gave you prime examples of how you just can do one test and conclude something. Go ask anyone that works at any of these crash testing site. Go to the IIHS website and ask them if all they do is one test that then concludes an overall rating, because they don't. I already provided examples of how they take two of the same cars and do multiple crashes on them all you have to do is go to the IIHS website or NHSTA website to see.

[CaptainKhrenov]

"a test crash that indicates inefficiency of the protection, altogether proves the inefficiency of the protection"

where is this argument flawed? what are you difficulties in comprehending it?

get the fuck real, your examples are completely ridiculous! I already refuted the airbag shit (nobody cares about the OTHER car (with airbags), it's a different thing!! that's why they get DIFFERENT ratings, separately)

wall crash is a different situation,or as you put it "senerio" lol

accept ur fail.

[SteelCity1981]

How isn't it flawed. How can you base one thing on the car that didn't score well and then base that to the entire car as being bad according to your logic?

If no one cared about it then they wouldn't have tested it in the first place. If no one cared about it then why did ford give them another fusion with that very same year and had them retest with side airbags so that the fusion wouldn't have gotten a poor rating on the side impact test?

Your ship is sinking accept it.

[CaptainKhrenov]

"How can you base one thing on the car that didn't score well and then base that to the entire car as being bad according to your logic?"

what the fuck are you talking about??

"How can you base one thing"

what thing?

We have been talking about ONE car, Ok?

Anyway, another way of thinking about it: how would the better rating of the car WITH airbag improve that of the car without??

[CaptainKhrenov]

"If no one cared about it then they wouldn't have tested it in the first place. If no one cared about it then why did ford give them another fusion with.."

now you're out in your lying, deceiving crazyland again, this won't work buddy

I see you're incapable of intellectual honesty, you scumbag can't stop lying

you're completely full of shit

from now on I'm gonna repost my earlier comments to warn people, I don't care what you're saying, as I suspected,you're just a dumb,lying,piece of shit

[SteelCity1981]

Oh and Im still waiting on that highly anticipated claim of yours about how having an acceptable rating is bad.

[SteelCity1981]

i'm not changing anything. That was an example that was based on you remarks about that all they needed to do is one crash test, which is flawed as i already explained.

Keep on what pwnge? LOL dude act your age for once are you capable of doing that? Lets see....

Lets see wasn't it you that repiled to hmmmm gee me first! You are a great comic relief man.

[CaptainKhrenov]

if you post some ridiculous nonsense don't expect people to just ignore it

a test crash that indicates inefficiency of the protection, altogether proves the inefficiency of the protection.

this is a fact. only complete morons don't understand it.

it doesn't matter how many "lucky" tests you'll do afterwards, this one shows that you may get hurt and pretty badly!

you could not produce any reasonable argument, just all the nonsense about "they" "stars", "airbags", walls, balls,and other crap

[SteelCity1981]

I wasn't lying do you not understand what an example means? Prob not with that piss poor vocab of yours. Furthermore I find this really funny if you are soo right then why do you keep on debating the same thing over and over again. Sounds to me that you are trying to prove to yourself that you are right. Is that what you do on youtube go around starting debates with people all day waiting for someone to reply to your comments because you life sucks that bad?

[CaptainKhrenov]

"then why do you keep on debating the same thing over and over again."

great point I'm debating the same thing, and it's amusing how you're changing your position over and over

"Sounds to me that you are trying to prove to yourself that you are right. Is that what you do on youtube go around starting debates with people all day waiting for someone to reply to your comments because you life sucks that bad?"

wasn't yours the first comment...?

keep scoring those self-ownage points LOL

[SteelCity1981]

It's soo funny that I have gotten under your skin. You truly are a loser. I've not only trapped you by providing proof in which you still can't to disclaim that this car it isn't safe, but also exposed in the mean time the lack of Intel that you truly have to hold a worthily debate. Talk about weak minded, that's a huge understatement. The lack of your intellect truly shines your weak minded nature.

[CaptainKhrenov]

"in the mean time"

you got exposed, bitch

[CaptainKhrenov]

"a model that doesn't have side impact airbags vs. the other model that does. If they just used the one model that didn't and gave it a poor rating overall without using the other model that did have side airbags then that isn't a reliable crash test, because it didnt' rate the other"

"That was my point idiot. They do two crash test offset and wall."

[SteelCity1981]

Wow you just summed upted everything you are in an entire nutshell. Bravo.

For starters i tried to have an intel convo with you but your lack of vocab words to make that happen, and your childish mentality forced me to speak to what you are capable of understanding, because lord knows you can't have one civil debate without acting like some teenager. I'd expect this from a 15 year old not a 28 year old.

[CaptainKhrenov]

intel convo?

c'mon, dumb whiny ass fanboy, then why do you have to lie so much?

remember when I refuted your ridiculous "argument"?

"I stated if they base this on one crash then it isn't reliable case in point a model that doesn't have side impact airbags vs. the other model that does. If they just used the one model that didn't and gave it a poor rating overall without using the other model that did have side airbags then that isn't a reliable crash test, because it didnt' rate the other"

[CaptainKhrenov]

what did you do?

you lied and tried to spin it somehow...

"That was my point idiot. They do two crash test offset and wall."

oh now it's suddenly fucking offset and wall!!

and this was the third instance, at least

you're a pathetic lier sir, a weak and despicable scumbag

[SteelCity1981]

Who uses the word pwnage at 28 years old unless you are mentally handicapped LOL.

Second of all where did i ever disput that it didn't get a poor rating in the foot well? I stated in which you have still yet to disput that it got a good enough rating overall despite that to get an overall acceptable rating in frontal crash test.

[CaptainKhrenov]

Ok, I've provided you the opportunity to walk away (yes, in disgrace, because you're an extremely hypocritical, pathologically lying dumb piece of shit)

which you rejected...

so let's see here

"I thought you could be capable of one Intel post, but then I saw the word scum..."

from your own comments, scumbag:

"inbred" "moron" "dumbass" "retard"

before you've accused me of hypocrisy, I find it very amusing.

and you, who said "basing this crash test one crash senerio" criticized my grammar..

[CaptainKhrenov]

I'm holding the mirror for you bitch, wait, there's much more!

let's see how your "argument" has evolved over and over again into something completely different, you pathetic weak minded piece of shit

[SteelCity1981]

And to think for one second I thought you could be capable of one Intel post, but then I saw the word scum and then everything went to reality. That was my point idiot. They do two crash test offset and wall. You're right safety isn't a top priority when people buy cars. Go look at the facts moron. Safety ranks 2nd to reliability when people buy cars. Yes the right leg did rate poor so, the car overall still got an acceptable rating idiot. How many times do we have to go through this?

[CaptainKhrenov]

"Yes the right leg did rate poor"

Ok, fucking whiny ford fanboy, I accept that as the white flag of surrender ... and an official acknowledgment of the fact of pwnage.

now that you have accepted reality, you may go, bitch

have a nice day

[BowlesI]

WHat are the dimensions of the dummy. I am 5.11 and 180. I was in a similar colision in a 2004 Scion xA. I struck the concrete highway divider at 65mph front and offset to driver side.

I wore my seatbelt and airbags deployed. I am currently undergoing physical therapy for a burst fracture of T12.

Even in the tiny xA I did not rebound into the roof. This is a problem. Major neck/spinal injuries could occur from this type of crash in this vehicle.

[SteelCity1981]

Who is doing this rating? The NHTSA gave the fusion 5 starts in front and side impacts. Acceptable ratings don't get 5 stars. If they are basing this crash test one crash then it isn't really reliable. NHTSA does more then one crash per senerio to get a total estimate rating.

[BowlesI]

I just wanted to add that this same result was seen in other testing. Not sure which one but the dummy's head was coated in blue grease paint which could be seen on the roof rail following the collision. I would be interested to see what the sensors in the dummy said the type of injuries could be.

[CaptainKhrenov]

one bad crash is enough to prove it's bad, you fucking retard!

[SteelCity1981]

You're a fucking moron. One crash doesn't prove anything. If you knew anything about crash test they do more then one crash.

[CaptainKhrenov]

"One crash doesn't prove anything"

listen, you fucking retarded dumb shit, IF it shows that the protection is insufficient, then it automatically PROVES that the protection is insufficient!

you want to repeat it, so maybe you can survive every 4th accident or so?? What will it change, retard?? Besides,they always do one crash,these are expensive and well done

I know these are complicated things for a fucking moron, but try to spend a day or two on it, maybe then you'll figure it out,dumb shit

[SteelCity1981]

LOL, I find it highly hypocritical that someone like you can talk about anyone being a moron or a dumb shit, considering your spelling and grammar is horrible. If you knew anything about crash test, then you would know they do multiple crashes; it's called "Extensive tests." Case and point, they do two side impact tests on the same car one with side airbags and one without side airbags. Why don't you got to their website some time and find out for yourself, or is that too complicated for you?

[CaptainKhrenov]

so you still think that a crash test which clearly shows that the protection is insufficient doesn't prove anything? LOL, happy dieing, moron...

BTW, why have you deleted your post, fucking retard? LMAO!!

"someone likes you" (and then this moron goes on criticizing my spelling and grammar)

AHAHAHAHAHAHA, thanks for the LOLz, you fucking assclown

Ok, now go cry, moronic bitch, you got owned.

[SteelCity1981]

LOL, look at the way you talk did you even get past the 5th grade? You talk like some inbred. This is how much of a moron you are. It got an Acceptable rating overall, how is that insufficient? Oh Im sorry that's because when people read your shit, they lose a few brain cells in the process.

I got owned by what? LOL. A loser, that doesn't have anything else better to do with his life then to sit there on his parents pc and talk shit on the internet? All day? LOL

[SteelCity1981]

The only dumbass here that got owned was you acting like you know shit about crash test when, you dont. I clearly backed my statement up with FACTS about how they perform multiple crashes on the same model.

[SteelCity1981]

What I find really funny is the fact that you are almost 30 talking like some teenager that's 15. Now that's funny. Is that how the mentality is on that inbred, toothless island that you live on called the Isle Of Man? LOL what a joke. You are too fun.

[CaptainKhrenov]

"I clearly backed my statement up with FACTS about how they perform multiple crashes on the same model"

facts? LOL, you're simply pathetic

you know, maybe the Fusion is safe for you after all, a brainless individual can't have a traumatic brain injury, am I right? LMAO

[SteelCity1981]

LOL, i'm pathetic but yet you can't provide one fact to counter my claim about how they dont' do multiple crash test with the same model. I just gave you a prime example and you got nothing to counter that.

You are calling me brainless but yet every other word coming out of you sounds brainless. LOL that's funny. Oh one more thing, if you knew anything about this model it only got an acceptable rating for this model year only. It scored good overall from 07-10 after the improvments.

[CaptainKhrenov]

no, seriously, what the fuck are you talking about, nutcase? What Planet Are You From?

who *they*? the UFOs? LOL!

are you a blind person? are you a deaf person?

you can *SEE* with your own dumb fucking eyes how the dummy hits the roof! And it clearly states that your right leg would be basically *smashed*.

This is the test. It's over, retard. What the fuck do you want to test more, fucking imbecile?

ANSWER MY QUESTION!!

did you also hit your fucking head? I guess so LOL

[SteelCity1981]

Are you that much of a moron, inbred and retard all rolled into one?

Right from the IIHS website regarding the 06 Fusion and dummies head rebound that hit the roof rail.

"Smeared greasepaint indicates where the dummy's head hit the roof rail during rebound. Head acceleration from this hit was low"

Head/Neck [G]

You just got OWNED BITCH!

[CaptainKhrenov]

holy. fucking. shit.

you have to READ it??? It's fucking her in the video, imbecile. I can't fucking believe how dumb you are

your dumb fucking head must have been hit "with low acceleration" a couple of times! LOL

What about the smashed leg? Got enough money for fixin' it?

seriously retard go fuck yourself fucking brainless ford fanboy

[SteelCity1981]

So you think you know more then the people that study crash test. Where does it say anything inregards to this video about the amount of damage the dummy suffers from it? No where idiot. LOL if that's the case then you must have been born with severe brain damage. Quit twisting shit. First I proved you wrong on the roof rail and then try to divert it to something else? Quit acting like a litte bitch, you were wrong about the roof rail hit. Did it or did it not get an overall acceptable rating?

[SteelCity1981]

I never said anything about wanting to see more test did I idiot. I said they do more then one fucking test in which i already proved to you once with the side impact testing.

[CaptainKhrenov]

"First I proved you wrong"

nope, moron, first you started disputing this test!

basically you wanted another one, like a little whiny bitch who can't accept reality and wants more tries LOL

then you proved that you're indeed a complete fucking moron and couldn't back up your claim by any argument whatsoever

you lost dumb shit, it's all here in the video, you got a smashed leg and a fucked up head (Ok, this won't really affect you as yours has been fucked up too many times LMAO)

u got *pwned*

[SteelCity1981]

I don't need to disput anything. I never proclaimed that this test was wrong. I stated they do more test then just one, idiot to determine the total overall safety rating. Oh i couldn't back up my claim is that why i went to the IIHS website and had to provide proof to your dumbass about the roof rail? LOL the only one that lost is you bitch, you can't provide one single backup to your claim other then some shit coming out your mouth. Of course disputing an inbred like you is a lost cause.

[SteelCity1981]

Again did it or did it not get an acceptable rating? answer the fucking question.

[SteelCity1981]

If you are soo fucking right, quit acting like some 15 year old kid and start acting your age and provide me with facts to counter my claim about this car not being overall acceptable because of that it's not a safe car overall?

[CaptainKhrenov]

here is your comment fucking moron

"Who is doing this rating? The NHTSA gave the fusion 5 starts in front and side impacts. Acceptable ratings don't get 5 stars. If they are basing this crash test one crash then it isn't really reliable. NHTSA does more then one crash per senerio to get a total estimate rating"

"senerio" "basing this crash test one crash"

LOL!

is this even english, you filthy scum??

you called it unreliable, and wanted, and I quote:

"more then one crash per senerio"

PWN3D

[SteelCity1981]

I knew you couldn't act intel you don't have the mental capacity for it. Yes and where did I say anything about this video being wrong? I stated if they base this on one crash then it isn't reliable case in point a model that doesn't have side impact airbags vs. the other model that does. If they just used the one model that didn't and gave it a poor rating overall without using the other model that did have side airbags then that isn't a reliable crash test, because it didnt' rate the other

[CaptainKhrenov]

except this wasn't your point in the "basing this crash test one crash senerio" comment and you know this very well, filthy scum

and it couldn't be because it's nonsense.

you're trying to spin it somehow, but you're a fucking retard so you simply can't...

if the model comes without airbags,

THOSE BUYERS don't give a fuck about testing with airbags, got it, fuckwit?

besides, what would you say about the fucked up right leg?? is there also an airbag for your balls, you fucking lying assclown???

[CaptainKhrenov]

AND you still didn't answer my question, bitch!

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO TEST MORE???

[ajcobraj]

Volvo is made by ford

[CaptainKhrenov]

nope, Swedes make Volvos, Mexicans and Americans make Fords...

[BeavisUA]

Volvo is the safest in the world! IT makes safe researches more than anyone else ...

[eatdirtfartdust]

@BeavisUA

Do you have any idea who owns Volvo, and with whom Ford shares most of its safety technology with???

[candysweetx33]

umm ford has more safe cars then any other brand how is this not safe?

[sideburns2009]

great...lets not count on ford to keep us safe.

[LotuzElize]

first view and comment :D
