Kia Forte: Air bag - advanced supplemental restraint system / Inflation and non-inflation conditions of the air bag

There are many types of accidents in which the air bag would not be expected to provide additional protection.

These include rear impacts, second or third collisions in multiple impact accidents, as well as low speed impacts.

In these situations, the air bags may not deploy.

Curtain air bags are located along both sides of the roof rails above the front and rear doors. They are designed to help protect occupants in certain side impacts and to help prevent them from ejecting out of the vehicle as a result of a rollover, especially when the seatbelts are also in use.
