How the Airbags Work
The airbag system sensors detect when collision forces reach a certain threshold. If
there is significant collision force, the airbags deploy instantly with a loud bang. Not
all collisions deploy the airbags. For example, certain low speed collisions and rear
collisions don’t deploy the airbags. This doesn’t indicate an airbag malfunction.
