Side impact air bags
Your vehicle is equipped with a side
impact air bag in each seat. The pur-
pose of the air bag is to provide the
vehicle's driver and the front passen-
ger with additional protection than that
offered by the seat belt alone.
The side impact air bags are
designed to deploy only during certain
side impact collisions, depending on
the crash severity, angle, speed and
point of impact.
The side impact air bags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact.
