Do not place any objects over or near the air bag on the
instrument panel; any
such objects could cause harm in the event
of a deployment.
The system consists of:
Driver and front passenger safety belts with
pretensioner(s) and load limiting systems.
Rear seat belts.
Dual stage driver and passenger airbags.
Curtain airbags on both sides of the vehicle.
Thorax airbags both sides of the vehicle (Driver and front
passenger only).
Knee airbags (Driver and front passenger only).
Front passenger classication system.
Air Bag Control Module (ACM).
The ACM uses
sensor data collected during a crash to determine
whether and how to deploy air bags and seat belt pretensioners.
Air bags and pretensioner will not deploy in every crash. If there is
no deployment, that does not mean there is something wrong
with the system. It means that the sensor data did not meet the
ACM’s criteria for deployment.
The airbag locations in the vehicle are highlighted by an “AIRBAG”
imprint or marker in four locations around the interior.
Frontal air bags. The driver’s
air bag (1) is in the steering wheel,
and the front passenger’s air bag (2) is above the glove
compartment. These air bags deploy in front of the driver and
front seat passenger to reduce the risk of injury to the head, neck,
face, chest, and legs in severe frontal or near-frontal collisions.
Side air bags. Located inside the driver and front passenger seat
backs, side air bags (3) deploy between a front seat occupant and
