The fact that the safety belt pretensioners or airbags did not activate for
both front seat occupants in a collision does not mean that something is
wrong with the system. Rather, it means the restraints control module
determined the accident conditions (crash severity, belt usage, etc.) were
not appropriate to activate these safety devices.
• Front airbags are designed to activate only in frontal and near-frontal

collisions (not rollovers, side impacts or rear impacts) unless the
collision causes sufficient longitudinal deceleration.

• The safety belt pretensioners are designed to activate in frontal,

near-frontal and side collisions.

• Side airbags are designed to inflate in side-impact collisions, not

rollovers, rear impacts, frontal or near-frontal collisions, unless the
collision causes sufficient lateral deceleration.
