The driver frontal airbag is in the center of the steering wheel. The front outboard passenger frontal airbag is in the passenger side instrument panel. The front center airbag is in the inboard side of the driver seatback. Driver Side Shown, Passenger Side Similar
The driver and front outboard passenger seat-mounted side impact airbags are in the side of the seatbacks closest to the door. Driver Side Shown, Passenger Side Similar
The roof-rail airbags for the driver, front outboard passenger, and second and third row outboard passengers are in the ceiling above the side windows.
This vehicle is equipped with airbags. Airbags are designed to inflate if the impact exceeds the system's deployment threshold. The vehicle has sensors that determine the severity of the impact. Deployment thresholds vary depending on the crash type and vehicle design.
Frontal airbags inflate in moderate to severe frontal or near-frontal crashes to protect the driver's or front passenger's head and chest. Deployment depends on the object hit, impact direction, and deceleration, not solely on speed.
Advanced technology frontal airbags adjust restraint according to crash severity. The front center airbag inflates in moderate to severe side crashes or predicted rollovers. Seat-mounted side impact airbags inflate in side crashes at the struck side. Roof-rail airbags inflate in side crashes, predicted rollovers, or severe frontal impacts.
Airbags are a supplement to seat belts and do not protect in all crashes. Whether an airbag inflates depends on the crash circumstances.
In a deployment event, the sensing system sends a signal releasing gas from the inflator, which fills the airbag and breaks it out of the cover. The inflator, airbag, and related hardware are part of the airbag module.
In moderate to severe crashes, even belted occupants may contact the steering wheel, instrument panel, or interior. Airbags supplement seat belts by distributing impact forces. Rollover-capable roof-rail airbags help contain the head and chest and reduce partial or full ejection risk. Airbags are never a substitute for seat belts.
Frontal and side airbags quickly deflate. Front center and roof-rail airbags may remain partially inflated for some time. Some components may be hot. Dust may be present from the vents. Airbag inflation does not obstruct visibility or prevent leaving the vehicle.
The vehicle may automatically unlock doors, turn on interior lamps and hazard flashers, and shut off the fuel system after airbags inflate or after a thresh
