If the front of your vehicle goes straight into a
wall that does not move or deform, the threshold
level for the reduced deployment is about 9 to
16 mph (14 to 26 km/h), and the threshold level
for a full deployment is about 18 to 25 mph
(29 to 40 km/h). (The threshold level can vary,
however, with specific vehicle design, so that it
can be somewhat above or below this range.)
Frontal airbags may inflate at different crash
speeds. For example:
•
If the vehicle hits a stationary object, the
airbags could inflate at a different crash speed
than if the vehicle hits a moving object.
•
If the vehicle hits an object that deforms, the
airbags could inflate at a different crash speed
than if the vehicle hits an object that does not
deform.
•
If the vehicle hits a narrow object (like a pole)
the airbags could inflate at a different crash
speed than if the vehicle hits a wide object
(like a wall).
•
If the vehicle goes into an object at an angle the
airbags could inflate at a different crash speed
than if the vehicle goes straight into the object.
The frontal airbags (driver and right front
passenger) are not intended to inflate during
vehicle rollovers, rear impacts, or in many
side impacts.
Your vehicle has a seat position sensor which
enables the sensing system to monitor the
fore and aft position of the driver’s seat. Seat
position sensors provide information that is used
to determine if the airbags should deploy at a
reduced level or at full deployment.
Your vehicle has roof-mounted rollover airbags
and a rollover sensor. See
Airbag System on
page 89
. These “rollover capable” airbags
are intended to inflate in moderate to severe side
crashes, during a rollover or in a severe frontal
impact. A roof-mounted rollover airbag will inflate
if the crash severity is above the system’s
designed “threshold level.” The threshold level can
vary with specific vehicle design. Roof-mounted
rollover airbags are not intended to inflate in
rear impacts. Both roof-mounted rollover airbags
will deploy when either side of the vehicle is struck
or during a rollover, or in a severe frontal impact.
