Ford Escape: Children and airbags
Children must always be properly restrained. Accident statistics suggest that children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seating position. Failure to follow these instructions may increase the risk of injury in a collision.
WARNING: Airbags can kill
or injure a child in a child
