passenger seat track position sensors that may adjust the
inflation rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags based upon
seat position.

passenger seat belt buckle switch that detects whether
the driver or front passenger seat belt is fastened. The
seat belt buckle switch may adjust the inflation rate of
the Advanced Front Air Bags.

Inflatable Curtains (SABIC) to protect the driver, front,

Mounted Side Air Bags (SAB) to provide enhanced
