In severe collisions such as those described previously in “SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria”, the applicable SRS air bag equipment will deploy. However, in some accidents, the equipment may not deploy depending on the type of collision and its severity.
Limitations to front/near front collision detection:
The following illustrations are examples of front/near front collisions that may not be detected as severe enough to deploy the SRS air bag equipment.

Limitations to side collision detection:
The following illustrations are examples of side collisions that may not be detected as severe enough to deploy the SRS air bag equipment.


(With Driver and Front Passenger Occupant Classification System) Limitations
to roll-over detection:
The following illustration is an example of an accident that may not be detected as a rollover accident. Therefore, the front seat belt pretensioners and curtain air bags may not deploy.

SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria
Driver and Front Passenger Occupant Classification SystemPowertrain System [C66 M R]
Purpose, Function
The powertrain mechanism changes the gear combination by engaging or releasing
the clutch hub and gear, and changes the power transmission route. Because of
the change in the power transmission route, the drive force (speed, torque,
rotation direction) input from th ...
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2 S) Removal/Installation
WARNING:
A hot engine and exhaust system can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine
and wait until they are cool before removing the exhaust system.
CAUTION:
Do not allow flammable objects such as the taping for bundling wiring harness
to come into contact with the exhau ...
Passenger Compartment Temperature Sensor Inspection [Full Auto Air Conditioner]
1. Measure the temperature around the passenger compartment temperature sensor
and measure the resistance between passenger compartment temperature sensor terminals
A and B.
If the characteristics of the passenger compartment temperature sensor are
not as shown in the graph, replace t ...
