Front airbags
In response to a severe frontal impact, the front airbags
work together with the seat belts to help reduce injury by
inflating. The front airbags help to reduce injuries mainly
to the driver's or front passenger's head or chest directly
hitting the steering wheel or dashboard.
The front passenger airbag will not activate if there is no
passenger sitting in the front passenger seat. However, the
front passenger airbag may deploy if luggage is put in the seat,
or the seat belt is buckled up regardless of the presence of the
occupant in the seat.
