Two tests of a 2007 Mustang convertible were conducted, one before the door modifications were made, and one after. During the first crash test, the window glass in the down position pushed on the driver door latch linkage, and the door opened. Ford responded by adding structure in the doors to prevent the window glass from contacting the latch mechanism and asked the Institute to test the Mustang again. In the second test, the driver door did not open. The two cars are rated separately, but the overall rating for each is Acceptable. Restraints/dummy kinematics — Dummy movement was reasonably well controlled. The dummy's head hit the A-pillar, which bent downward and inward during the crash. Injury measures — Measures taken from the neck and chest indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. A high head acceleration occurred when the dummy's head hit the steering wheel through the airbag, indicating that head injuries would be possible. Forces on the right tibia indicate that lower leg injuries would also be possible. Head acceleration from the A-pillar hit was low. meaning it receive a good rating thank for the suggestion also here is the full crash test: overall rating as 5 stars results of the Mustangs also applies to the Shelby!

MrLlamaLlama Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 No offense... but... You can get pretty much all this info from wikipedia and Euro NCAP (under freedom of info act), so... you're just copy pasting stuff? (plus a video easily searched on youtube) Not as if you can offer anything unique like personal knowledge. All you added was 'meaning it receive a good rating'...

Dmac Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 My favourite car, Holden Commodore VP, Would be safe but not as safe as modern cars. I think it was one of the first models with air bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
