If it says AIR BAG on the middle part of the steering
wheel but it does not say AIR BAG on the instrument
panel in front of the right front passenger's seat, your
vehicle has an airbag for the driver only.

your vehicle has an airbag for the driver only.
Frontal airbags are designed to help reduce the risk of
injury from the force of an inflating airbag. But these
airbags must inflate very quickly to do their job and
comply with federal regulations.

Here are the most important things to know about the
airbag system:
CAUTION:
{
You can be severely injured or killed in a crash
if you are not wearing your safety belt — even if
you have airbags. Wearing your safety belt
during a crash helps reduce your chance of
hitting things inside the vehicle or being ejected
from it. Airbags are "supplemental restraints" to
the safety belts. Airbags are "supplemental
restraints" to the safety belts. Airbags are
designed to work with safety belts, but do not
replace them. Airbags are designed to deploy in
moderate to severe frontal and near frontal
crashes. They are not designed to inflate in
rollover, rear crashes, or in many side crashes.
And, for some unrestrained occupants, airbags
may provide less protection in frontal crashes
than more forceful airbags have provided in the
past. Everyone in your vehicle should wear a
safety belt properly — whether or not there is an
airbag for that person.
