They are designed to help protect the
heads of the front seat occupants and
the rear seat occupants in certain side
impact collisions.
The curtain air bags are designed to
deploy during certain side impact colli-
sions, depending on the crash severity,
angle, speed and point of impact. The
curtain air bags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact situations, colli-
sions from the front or rear of the vehi-
cle or in most rollover situations.
