FORD F-250 ROLLOVER PROBLEM
The F250 like most pickup trucks has by it's their very nature has a high center of gravity, therefore can be a very unstable vehicle on the road. Although the F250 truck is designed to be driven off the road, it does not have a rollover cage, roll bar or other roof crush or occupant protection. And to make matters worse, few SUVs, vans or trucks meet the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration (NHTSA) roof support safety standard (FMVSS 216)
Most Ford F250 roll over accidents occur when the driver is forced to take an emergency or evasive action after steering in one direction and then rapidly correcting in the opposite direction, such as a typical avoidance maneuver with a road hazard, tire blowout, tire tread defect or separation, a deer, a dog, pothole or another vehicle in their path. This evasive action often results in a rollover.
FORD F250 ROOF CRUSH - ROOF PILLAR COLLAPSE
The roof structure of the two door Ford F250 regular cab is comprised of a roof, two A-Pillars and two B-Pillars. On the Ford F250 Super Duty Super Cab 4 doors, two A- Pillars, two, B-Pillars and two C-Pillars and a roof structure. On the four door Ford F20 Super Duty Supercab, an obvious problem exists. On the Ford F250 Supercab, there is no B-Pillar between the 2 doors on each side. In a rollover the roof crushes down on the top of the doors and crushes down much more severely than it would have if a Pillar existed between the doors to act as a roof support. This additional force or pressure on the door latch can allow the door lock or door latches to open during a rollover or a side collision. exposing the driver and passengers to untold dangers, injuries and death.
FORD F250 DOOR LATCH FAILURES
The door locks in the 1997 through 2000 models of the Ford F-250 truck may contain a manufacturing defect in the outside handle which may make the handle non-compliant with FMVSS 206 and dangerous to the consumer especially in a rollover.. As required by the (FMVSS 206) all vehicle door latch systems, including both the inside and outside door handles, are required to withstand certain pressures or forces to keep vehicle's door lock from opening during a typical rollover or accident. FMVSS 206 relates to the door latch and FMVSS 206 requires that the door handle and latch mechanism be able to withstand 30 g's of inertial loading in an accident. If the door lock or door latch fails to hold and opens at under 30 g's, then the door will open allowing the occupants to be ejected or face untold injuries from being partially ejected or hit by other objects and other vehicles.
