Adding Equipment toYour Air Bag-Equipped Vehicle If I add a push bumper or a bicycle rack to the front of my vehicle, will it keep the air bags from working properly? Center Passenger Position A: As long as the push bumper or bicycle rack is attached to your vehicle so that the vehicle's basic struct.ureisn't changed, it's not likely to keep the air bags from working properly in a crash. Q: A: Is there anything I might add to the front of the vehicle that could keep the air bags from working properly? Yes. If you add things that change your vehicle's frame, bumper system, front end sheet metalor height, they may keep the air bag system from working properly. Also, the air bag system may not work properly if you relocate any of the air bag sensors. If you have any questions about this, you should contact Customer Assistance before you modify your vehicle. (The phone numbers and addresses for Customer Assistance are in Step Two of the Customer Satisfxtion Procedure in this manual. See "Customer Satisfaction Procedure"in the Index.) Lap Belt If your vehicle has front and rear bench seats, someone can sit in the center positions.
