You're welcome; looks like it got cut off, so here's the rest: Quieter Cabin: In addition to the powertrain NVH actions, the team made several significant changes to the Town Car’s body structure to reduce noise intrusion into the cabin. * A new laminated steel dash panel replaces the previous model’s single-ply design. * Thicker sound insulation is used in the wheelhouses, roof, body pillars and doors. * An aluminum floor pan doubler is bonded to the sheet metal in the front passenger footwell area to attenuate road noise. * A stronger steel instrument panel brace reduces steering column shake and eliminates squeaks and rattles. * New body and cowl seals reduce air leakage into the cabin by 20 percent. At idle, the interior sound level is only 40 decibels. At partial throttle, the Town Car’s speech articulation index, which measures a driver’s ability to follow a conversation with a rear seat passenger without turning his head, remains well above 90 percent up to 3,000 rpm in first gear (higher is better). At wide-open throttle, the articulation index remains above 80 percent up to about 4,000 rpm. While overall sound levels and loudness in the cabin are reduced, engineers have tuned the intake and exhaust systems to allow a strong fourth order engine note – the firing order sound of a powerful American V-8 – to come through under acceleration. Section 4. A Safety Leader The Town Car’s robust new frame and industry-leading safety technologies developed by Ford Motor Company help protect Town Car drivers and passengers if a collision is unavoidable. Personal Safety System The 2003 Town Car is equipped with Ford Motor Company’s Personal Safety System, which is one of the most comprehensive driver and front seat passenger restraint systems available. It includes dual-stage air bags and safety belts with retractor pretensioners and energy management retractors. The system monitors belt usage and uses a front crash severity sensor and a driver’s seat position sensor to tailor the force of air bag deployment for a variety of front-impact situations for enhanced occupant protection. In low-speed collisions, the front air bags may not deploy at all if the system determines that the safety belts alone can provide appropriate protection, or if the front passenger seat is empty. The pretensioners tighten the front safety belts in the first milliseconds of a severe impact to help keep occupants in front of the air bags. The risk of chest injury is reduced because the energy management retractors release small amounts of belt webbing to manage the forces created by the vehicle’s sudden deceleration. Town Car continues to feature BeltMinder™, which chimes to remind the driver to buckle up. According to an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety study, BeltMinder improves belt usage by 5 percent, which they described as “significant.” A Solid Foundation The 2003 Town Car is expected to perform well in U.S. government crash tests, thanks in part to frame improvements and safety features like the Personal Safety System. * The new hydroformed front frame rails are filled with structural foam in key locations to help control the dissipation of crash energy for improved frontal and offset crash performance. * The steel number three crossmember, which ties the frame together behind the A-pillar, is a more robust design that helps manage side impact crash forces by transferring energy across the frame structure into the opposite rail. * The front roof rails and rocker panels are reinforced for improved offset and side impact protection. * A new 5-mph front bumper system improves high-speed crash performance by providing additional crush space. Repair costs also should be lower because the system has fewer parts. Town Car’s side-impact beams in all four doors and standard driver and front passenger side air bags further enhance side-impact crash performance.
