Examples of the types of accidents in which the SRS airbag
will basically not deploy.
The SRS airbag is basically not designed to deploy if the vehicle is
struck from side or from behind, or if it rolls onto its side or roof, or if it
is involved in a low-speed frontal collision.

The vehicle is struck from
behind.
The vehicle is struck from
the side.
The vehicle rolls onto its
side or roof.
In an accident where the vehicle is impacted more than once, the
SRS airbag deploys only once on the first impact.
Example: In the case of a double collision, first with another vehicle,
then against a concrete wall in immediate succession, the SRS airbag
is activated on the first impact but not on the second.
