What Are the Reasons Why Airbags Fail to Deploy?
1 Answers
Reasons why airbags fail to deploy: 1. The manufacturer's preset deployment conditions are not met. Different automakers have varying criteria for airbag deployment, and if the triggering threshold is not reached, the airbag will not inflate. 2. The vehicle collision occurs at an angle that fails to activate the impact sensors, such as hitting the headlight area, front wheel position, or small objects. 3. The airbag warning light remains lit without timely inspection and repair. 4. Seat covers may cause side airbags to malfunction. 5. The airbag has reached the end of its service life. Precautions: 1. Airbags exert significant force upon deployment, so always use them in conjunction with seat belts. 2. Maintain proper seating posture with your back against the seat and minimal space between your head and the headrest. 3. Avoid placing objects near airbag compartments as they may become dangerous projectiles during deployment. 4. Never modify vehicle wiring without professional assistance, especially circuits related to airbag systems.
