Ford Explorer and Jeep Grand Cherokee Worst Rated in SUV Crash Test | Fortune
The test covered six criteria — impact of the crash on the car’s structure, effectiveness of passenger restraints and kinematics, head and neck injuries, chest injuries, hip and thigh injuries, and lower leg and foot injuries — to calculate an overall rating.
Ford Explorer received an overall “poor” rating for the passenger side due to structural damage caused in the accident, along with likely right hip injuries to the passenger and addition possible injuries to the passenger’s lower left leg. The Explorer got a “marginal” score for the driver’s side.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee’s “poor” rating in the passenger-side test was due to the possibility of right leg injuries and head injuries. In the test, the dummy’s head “hit the dashboard hard through the front airbag and then, because the side curtain airbag didn’t deploy and the door opened, it moved outside the vehicle during rebound,” IIHS said.
