in a moderate-to-severe side impact or

1Side Curtain Airbags
The side curtain airbags are most effective when an
occupant is wearing their seat belt properly and
sitting upright, well back in their seat.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof
pillars as they can interfere with the proper operation
of the side curtain airbags.
If the impact is on the passenger side, the side curtain
airbag deploys even if there is no passenger in the
passenger seat.
