Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS front airbags)

The SRS front airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a side or

rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-speed frontal collision. But,

whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient forward deceleration of the vehi-

cle, deployment of the SRS front airbags may occur.

■

Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS side and curtain shield

airbags)

The SRS side and curtain shield airbags may not activate if the vehicle is subjected to

a collision from the side at certain angles, or a collision to the side of the vehicle body

other than the passenger compartment.

The SRS side and curtain shield airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is

involved in a frontal or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-speed

side collision.
