Side air bags and side curtain air
bags (if equipped)
57RK027
Side air bags and side curtain air bags are
designed to inflate in severe side impact
crashes when the ignition switch is in “ON”
position or the ignition mode is ON.
Side air bags and side curtain air bags are
not designed to inflate in frontal or rear
crashes, rollovers or minor side crashes,
since they would offer no protection in
those types of accidents. Only the side air
bag and side curtain air bag on the side of
the vehicle that is struck will inflate. How-
ever, in a frontal angle crash, the side air
bags and side curtain air bags may inflate.
Since an air bag deploys only one time
during an accident, seat belts are needed
to restrain occupants from further move-
ments during the accident.
