Where Are the Air Bags?

The driver’s frontal air bag is in the middle of the
steering wheel.

The right front passenger’s frontal air bag is in the
instrument panel on the passenger’s side.

If your vehicle has one, the driver’s side impact air bag is
in the side of the driver’s seatback closest to the door.
