Your Vehicle's Safety Features
Airbags
Your vehicle has a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) with frontal
airbags to help protect the driver and
a front seat passenger.
This system also includes
an indicator light on the
instrument panel to alert you to a
possible problem with the system.
Following are the most important
things you need to know about your
airbags.
Airbags do not replace seat belts.
They supplement seat belts by
providing extra protection for the
heads and chests of front seat
occupants.
Airbags offer no protection in side
impacts, rear impacts, rollovers,
or minor or moderate collisions.
Airbags are designed to deploy
only during a severe frontal
collision (such as a 25 mph [40
km/h] crash into a parked car of
similar size and weight).
Airbags can pose serious hazards.
To do their job, airbags must
inflate with tremendous force and
speed. So while airbags save lives,
they can cause serious injuries to
adults and larger children who are
not wearing seat belts, are not
wearing them properly, are sitting
too close to the airbag, or are not
sitting in a good position. Infants
and small children are at an even
greater risk of injury or death.
What you should do: Always wear
your seat belt properly and sit
upright and as far back as possible
from the steering wheel or
dashboard.
