I have side airbags in my Escape. Do you think they will affect small children sitting in the back since the airbags are in the front?<br>Di

From what I can understand from this article :<br> <a href=http://autonet.ca/EdmontonDrive/Stories.cfm?StoryID=1767 target=new>http://autonet.ca/EdmontonDrive/Stories.cfm?StoryID=1767</a><br><br>t\ he danger for children in the Escape from air bags (front or side) are in the front seat only. The dangers in the back seat seem to occur when you have rear seat air bags as well. (Which the Escape does not offer)<br><br>You might want to check with your dealer, but I think the kids are safe in the rear.<br><br>Gary

Thank you for the reply. I looked on the ford web site and it looks like the side airbags will not inflate large enough to affect a child in the back seat. <br><br>Di
