Side impact and curtain air bags
Side impact and curtain air bags are
generally designed to inflate in mod-
erate to severe side collisions. The
impact forces measured by the side
impact sensors and SRS control
module determine whether or not to
inflate the side impact airbags.
Although the front air bags (driver’s
and front passenger’s air bags) are
designed to inflate only in frontal col-
lisions, they also may inflate in other
types of collisions if the front impact
sensors detect a sufficient impact.
Side impact and curtain air bags are
designed to inflate only in side
impact collisions, but they may inflate
in other collisions if the side impact
sensors detect a sufficient impact.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by
bumps or objects on unimproved
roads, the air bags may deploy. Drive
carefully on unimproved roads or on
surfaces not designed for vehicle
traffic to prevent unintended air bag
deployment.
Air bag non-inflation conditions
• In certain low-speed collisions the
air bags may not deploy. The air
bags are designed not to deploy in
such cases because they may not
provide occupants protection
beyond the protection of the seat
belts in such collisions.
