• Front air bags may not inflate in a
side impact collision, because
occupants are forced to move
towards an impact direction. In this
case, inflated front air bags would
not provide additional protection.
However, side impact and curtain
air bags may inflate depending on
an impact intensity, a speed,
angles and a direction.
• In an angled collision, occupants
are forced to move toward an
impact direction. In this case, the
air bags would not be able to pro-
vide any additional benefit, and
thus the sensors may not deploy
any air bags.
• Just before an impact, drivers tend
to heavily depress a brake pedal.
Such heavy braking lowers the
front portion of the vehicle, possi-
bly causing it to “under-ride” below
a vehicle with a higher ground
clearance.
Air bags may not inflate in this
"under-ride" situation, because the
force, which is detected by sen-
sors, may be significantly deceler-
ated in such a “under-ride” colli-
sion.
• Front air bags may not inflate in a
rollover, because air bag deploy-
ment would not provide protection
to occupants.
However, side and curtain air bags
may inflate, when the vehicle rolls
over in a side-impact collision.
