WARNING:

Accidental air bag deployment is possible. Personal injury may result. Avoid area near steering wheel and instrument panel even if air bags have deployed. Dual-stage air bag modules may be present that could contain an undeployed stage. When disposing of a deployed dual-stage air bag, always treat it as a live module. See appropriate Air Bag Service & Repair article in Mitchell’s Repair Center TechAdvisor product for more information. ©Mitchell International

Replace after Deployment Inspect & if Damaged, Replace Component (Even if Air Bag Did Not Deploy) Comments

  • Following any air bag deployment event 1

  • If driver air bag is deployed 2

  • If knee air bag is deployed 3

  • If passenger air bag is deployed 4

  • If a seat air bag is deployed 5

  • If a seat belt tensioner is deployed 6

  • If a side curtain air bag is deployed 7

  • If active head restraint is deployed 8

  • Front impact sensors

  • Steering wheel

  • Instrument panel

  • Side impact sensors

  • Seat belt pretensioners

  • Seat belts & mounting points

  • Head air bag deploy brackets on B- & C-pillars on side of deployment

  • Sunroof drain tubes & hoses

  • Child restraint anchors & tethers

  • Inertia activated head restraint 8

  • Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) and mounting location

  • All trim panels

  • Following ANY major vehicle impact damage in the vicinity of an impact sensor or the ORC 9

  • Manufacturer may consider some fasteners and attachments non-reusable. Refer to manufacturer’s service repair manual or appropriate Air Bag Service & Repair article in Mitchell’s Repair Center TechAdvisor product for more information.

  • Proper operation of air bag system requires that any repair made to the vehicle structures return it to its original production configuration.

  • After vehicle is repaired, ensure AIR BAG warning light is functioning properly.
1The Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren (LATCH) provisions, the upper tether anchors and all interior trim panels must also be inspected.
2If the Driver Air Bag (DAB) has been deployed, the DAB, the clockspring, the steering column assembly including the intermediate shaft and coupler, both front seat belt anchor tensioners, both front seat belt retractor and tensioner assemblies, both rear outboard seat belt retractor and tensioner assemblies (if equipped), any front seat belt buckle in use and all rear seat belt retractors and buckles in use must be replaced. The front impact sensors and the steering wheel must also be inspected.
3If the driver Knee Air Bag (KAB) has been deployed, the KAB and the instrument panel steering column opening cover must also be replaced. The instrument panel must also be inspected.
4If the Passenger Air Bag (PAB) has been deployed, the PAB, the PAB wire harness or connector and the instrument panel must be replaced.
5If a Seat Air Bag (SAB) has been deployed, the SAB, the seat back frame, the seat back foam, the seat back trim cover and the side impact sensors on the same side of the vehicle as the deployed air bag must be replaced. Both front seat belt anchor tensioners, both front seat belt retractor and tensioner assemblies, any front seat belt buckle in use and all rear seat belt retractors and buckles in use must be replaced.
6The seat belt retractor tensioner and anchor tensioners are deployed in conjunction with the front air bags. All seat belt tensioners must be replaced if any air bag in the vehicle except the driver KAB has been deployed.
7If a side curtain air bag (also known as a Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain/SABIC) has been deployed, the SABIC, the trim on the upper A, B and C-pillars as well as the side impact sensors on the same side of the vehicle as the deployed air bag must be replaced. The headliner, both front seat belt anchor tensioners, both front seat belt retractor and tensioner assemblies, any front seat belt buckle in use and all rear seat belt retractors and buckles in use must be replaced. The deploy brackets on the B-pillar and C-pillar for the same side of the vehicle as the deployed air bag must be closely inspected following a side curtain air bag deployment.
8An inertia-based Active Head Restraint (AHR) unit that is undamaged following a deployment automatically resets itself. These units are designed with the intention of reuse.
9It is critical that the mounting surfaces and mounting brackets for the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC), front impact sensors and side impact sensors located within the proximity of the impact damage be closely inspected and restored to their original conditions. Because the ORC and each impact sensor are used by the SRS to monitor or confirm the direction and severity of a vehicle impact, improper orientation or insecure fastening of these components may cause air bags not to deploy when required, or to deploy when not required.
