Airbag non-inflation conditions
OJKEV031070
In certain low-speed collisions the
airbags may not deploy. The airbags are
designed not to deploy in such cases
because they may not provide benefits
beyond the protection of the seat belts.
OJKEV031071
Front airbags are not designed to inflate
in rear collisions, because occupants
are moved backward by the force of the
impact. In this case, inflated airbags
would not provide any additional benefit.
OJKEV031067
Front airbags may not inflate in side
impact collisions, because occupants
move in the direction of the collision,
and thus in side impacts, front airbag
deployment would not provide additional
occupant protection.
However, side and curtain airbags and
the front center side airbag may inflate
depending on the severity of impact.
OJKEV031072
In an angled collision, the force of impact
may direct the occupants in a direction
where the airbags would not be able to
provide any additional benefit, and thus
the sensors may not deploy any airbags.
