(driver’s side only) and/or either the single stage passenger airbag or

both stages of the dual-stage driver airbag supplemental restraints based

on crash severity and occupant conditions.

The fact that the pyrotechnic dual retractor (driver’s side only),

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 Safety System determined the accident conditions

(crash severity, belt usage, etc.) were not appropriate to activate these

safety devices. Front airbags, pretensioners, equipped with a pyrotechnic

dual retractor (driver’s side only) 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.

Driver dual-stage airbag supplemental restraints (driver seating

position only)

The dual-stage airbag offers the capability to tailor the level of airbag

inflation energy. A lower, less forceful energy level is provided for more

common, moderate-severity impacts. A higher energy level is used for

the most severe impacts. Refer to Airbag supplemental restraints

section in this chapter.

Front crash severity sensor

The front crash severity sensor enhances the ability to detect the

severity of an impact. Positioned up front, it provides valuable

information early in the crash event on the severity of the impact. This

allows your Safety System to distinguish between different levels of crash

severity and modify the deployment strategy of the dual-stage airbag and

safety belt pretensioners.

The driver’s side only is equipped with dual pretensioners.

Driver’s seat position sensor

The driver’s seat position sensor allows your Safety System to tailor the

deployment level of the driver airbag based on seat position. The system

is designed to help protect smaller drivers sitting close to the driver

airbag by providing a lower airbag output level.

Front passenger sensing system

For airbags to do their job they must inflate with great force, and this

force can pose a potentially deadly risk to occupants that are very close

to the airbag when it begins to inflate. For some occupants, like infants

in rear-facing child seats, this occurs because they are initially sitting

very close to the airbag. For other occupants, this occurs when the

occupant is not properly restrained by safety belts or child safety seats
