Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other than
a collision
The SRS front airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy if a
serious impact occurs to the underside of your vehicle. Some examples are
shown in the illustration.
●
Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or
hard surface
● Falling into or jumping over a deep hole
●
Landing hard or falling
The SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy under the situations shown
in the illustration.
●
The angle of vehicle tip-up is marginal.
●
The vehicle skids and hits a curb stone.
■
Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS front air-
bags)
The SRS front airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a
side or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-speed frontal
collision. But, whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient forward
deceleration of the vehicle, deployment of the SRS front airbags may occur.
●
Collision from the side
● Collision from the rear
●
Vehicle rollover
