Conditions in Which Airbags Will Not Deploy

When the impact force of collision is absorbed or dispersed to vehicle body, airbags may not deploy; however, airbags may sometimes deploy according to impact condition. Therefore, the deployment of airbags shall not be judged based on the severity of vehicle damage. Front Airbags Under certain conditions the front airbags may not be deployed. Some examples are listed below:
