Adding Equipment to Your
Airbag-Equipped Vehicle
Q:
Is there anything I might add to the front
or sides of the vehicle that could keep the
airbags from working properly?
A:
Yes. If you add things that change your
vehicle’s frame, bumper system, height, front
end or side sheet metal, they may keep the
airbag system from working properly. Also,
the airbag system may not work properly if you
relocate any of the airbag sensors. If you have
any questions about this, you should contact
Customer Assistance before you modify your
vehicle. The phone numbers and addresses for
Customer Assistance are in Step Two of the
Customer Satisfaction Procedure in this
manual. See
Customer Satisfaction
Procedure on page 474 .
Q:
Because I have a disability, I have to get
my vehicle modified. How can I find out
whether this will affect my airbag system?
A:
Changing or moving any parts of the front
seats, safety belts, the airbag sensing and
diagnostic module, steering wheel, instrument
panel, overhead console, ceiling headliner,
ceiling and pillar garnish trim, roof-mounted
airbag modules, or airbag wiring can affect the
operation of the airbag system. If you have
questions, call Customer Assistance. The
phone numbers and addresses for Customer
Assistance are in Step Two of the Customer
Satisfaction Procedure in this manual. See
Customer Satisfaction Procedure on page 474 .
