Location of the side impact (SIPS) airbag

As an enhancement to the structural side impact protection built into your vehicle, the vehicle is also equipped with Side Impact Pro- tection System (SIPS) airbags.

The SIPS airbag system is designed to help increase occupant protection in the event of certain side impact collisions. The SIPS air- bags are designed to deploy only during cer- tain side-impact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact.

NOTE

SIPS airbag deployment (one airbag) occurs only on the side of the vehicle affected by the impact. The airbags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations.

Components in the SIPS airbag system

This SIPS airbag system consists of gas gen- erators and side airbag modules built into the outboard sides of both front seat backrests.
