Hyundai Venue: Why Didn’t My Air Bag Go Off in a Collision? / Air bag collision sensors
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag deploying unexpectedly and causing serious
injury or death:
- Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where air bags
or sensors are installed.
- Do not perform maintenance on or around the air bag sensors. If the location
or angle of the sensors is altered, the air bags may deploy when they should
not or may not deploy when they should.
- Do not install bumper guards or replace the bumper with a nongenuine
HYUNDAI parts. This may adversely affect the collision and air bag deployment
performance.
- Place the ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF or ACC position when the vehicle
is being towed to prevent inadvertent air bag deployment.
- Have all air bag repairs conducted by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
