Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags
V
When will the SRS frontal airbag not deploy?
The SRS frontal airbag is basically not designed to de-
ploy if the vehicle is struck from side or from behind, or
if it rolls onto its side or roof, or if it is involved in a low-
speed frontal collision. A) First impact
B) Second impact
In an accident where the vehicle is impacted more
than once, the SRS frontal airbag deploys only once.
Example: In the case of a double collision, first with an-
other vehicle, then against a concrete wall in immedi-
ate succession, once the SRS frontal airbag is activat-
ed on the first impact, it will not be activated on the
second.
