■
If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
●
Bruising and slight abrasions may result from contact with a deploying (inflating)
SRS airbag.
●
A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
●
Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as well as
the seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side rails may be hot for several
minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.
●
The windshield may crack.
●
For Safety Connect subscribers, if the SRS airbags deploy or in the event of a
severe rear-end collision, the system is designed to send an emergency call to the
response center, notifying them of the vehicle’s location (without needing to push
the “SOS” button) and an agent will attempt to speak with the occupants to ascer-
tain the level of emergency and assistance required. If the occupants are unable to
communicate, the agent automatically treats the call as an emergency and helps to
dispatch the necessary emergency services. (

SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags and SRS seat cushion air-
bag)
●
The SRS front airbags and SRS seat cushion airbag will deploy in the event of an
impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an
approximately 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fixed wall that
does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following situa-
tions:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can
move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in which the
front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes under, the bed of a truck
●
Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt pretension-
ers will activate.
●
The SRS front airbags for the front passenger will not activate if there is no passen-
ger sitting in the front passenger seat. However, the SRS front airbags for the front
passenger may deploy if luggage is put in the seat, even if the seat is unoccupied.
