Does the GAC Trumpchi GS4 have airbags?
2 Answers
The GAC Trumpchi GS4 is equipped with airbags. The base model of the Trumpchi GS4 features two airbags for the driver and front passenger seats. The mid-range Elite model includes four airbags: driver and front passenger seat airbags, as well as front side airbags. The high-end Luxury and Premium models are equipped with six airbags: driver and front passenger seat airbags, front side airbags, and front/rear head airbags, providing better protection for passengers. Front airbag locations: The front airbag is installed in the center of the steering wheel, while the front passenger airbag is located in the instrument panel directly ahead. Side airbags can be installed on the outer side of the seats, on the upper frame of the side doors, or on the A-pillars. Identification marks: Some vehicles may also have knee airbags installed below the instrument panel. For a specific vehicle, you can look for the "AIRBAG" marking, as the airbag is typically located below or next to this marking.
From my experience of frequently helping people with car repairs, the GAC Trumpchi GS4 definitely has airbags. At the very least, it comes standard with dual front airbags, and the higher trim levels also include side airbags, which are crucial for protecting the heads and chests of both the driver and passengers. In the event of a collision, the airbags rapidly inflate and deploy, absorbing the impact force to reduce injuries—much like in an accident I witnessed where the GS4's airbags saved several lives. If the airbag light isn't on, it indicates the system is functioning properly. However, owners should regularly check the sensors and wiring to prevent malfunctions, as dust or aging can lead to failure. Airbag maintenance is straightforward; I recommend getting a professional diagnostic scan every six months and not ignoring minor warning signs. Safe driving combined with properly functioning airbags ensures the best protection.
