which deploys the airbag, regardless of the extent of
damage to the vehicle.

carriage impact which results in any type of damage
or bending of front suspension components or the
frame of the vehicle.
• Under any conditions which result in the steer-
ing gear, steering column or steering column shaft
receiving a force great enough to move the steering
column or shaft forward or rearward in the vehicle.
Inspect the intermediate shaft and its flexible
joints for any of the following conditions:
