Your airbag systems are virtually
maintenance free, and there are no
parts you can safely service.
However, you must have your
vehicle serviced if:

Do not try to remove or replace
any airbag by yourself. This must
be done by an authorized dealer or
a knowledgeable body shop.

Any airbag

that has deployed must be
replaced along with the control
unit and other related parts. Any
seat belt tensioner that activates
must also be replaced.

Be aware that objects placed on the
front seat can cause the indicator to
come on.

If no weight is detected on the front
seat, the airbag will be automatically
shut off. However, the indicator will
not come on.

The passenger airbag off indicator
may come on and off repeatedly if
the total weight on the seat is near
the airbag cutoff threshold.

If a passenger is riding in front,
move the seat as far to the rear as
possible, and have the passenger sit
upright and wear the seat belt
properly.

If the indicator comes on with no
front seat passenger and no objects
on the seat, or with an adult riding
there, something may be interfering
with the weight sensors. Look for
and remove:

Any items under the front
passenger’s seat.

Any object, hanging on the seat or
in the seat-back pocket.

Any object, such as a folded-down
back seat, that is touching the rear
of the seat-back.

If no obstructions are found, have
your vehicle checked by a dealer as
soon as possible.

Take your vehicle to an

authorized dealer as soon as
possible. If you ignore this
indication, your airbags may not
operate properly.
