General information
G032949
Location of the side impact (SIPS) airbags (front
seats only)
As an enhancement to the structural side
impact protection built into your vehicle, it is
also equipped with Side Impact Protection
System (SIPS) airbags.
The SIPS airbag system is designed to help
increase occupant protection in the event of
certain side impact collisions. The SIPS air-
bags are designed to deploy only during cer-
tain side-impact collisions, depending on the
crash severity, angle, speed and point of
impact.
G024377
Driver's side SIPS airbag
G024378
Passenger's side SIPS airbag
NOTE
SIPS airbag deployment (one airbag)
occurs only on the side of the vehicle
affected by the impact. The airbags are not
designed to deploy in all side impact situa-
tions.
Components in the SIPS airbag system
This SIPS airbag system consists of a gas
generator, the side airbag modules built into
the outboard sides of both front seat back-
rests, and electronic sensors/wiring.
