Airbag Car Accident Failure

 


Advanced Frontal Airbag Failure

Advanced frontal air bags were created to meet the needs and standards of the occupants in the front seats of a vehicle in a variety of specific crash situations. Advanced frontal air bag systems automatically regulate if and with what level of power the driver frontal air bag and the passenger frontal air bag will inflate, depending on design.

Have you or someone you know been involved in a car accident due to an advanced frontal airbag failure? If so, contact one of our experienced car accident attorneys in your area today!

The appropriate level of power to the air bags is based upon sensor inputs that will normally detect:

  • Occupant size
  • Seat position
  • Seat belt use of the occupant
  • Crash severity
  • Some systems also use the occupant's distance from the air bag as an additional input.

Even though advanced frontal airbags provide an additional level of security for motorists, it is still necessary to wear a seatbelt. These two devices work hand in hand to offer overall safety to the driver and passengers. All infants should still be placed in the backseat, regardless of the presence of airbags. This is still the safest place for children under the age of 12. Even with this added protection, there is still a risk of malfunction or defectiveness.

    Drivers must have at least 25 centimeters or 10 inches of space between them and the air bag to avoid injury when the airbag deploys.


    Injuries that can occur from airbags include skin abrasions, head injuries, hearing damage, eye damage in the event the passenger is wearing eyewear such as glasses, and broken nose, arms, hands, and fingers.
