Hyundai Ioniq: Why Didn't My Air Bag Go Off in a Collision? / Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags and the driver's knee air bag are designed to inflate in a frontal
collision depending on the severity of impact of the front collision.
Side and curtain air bags
Side and curtain air bags are designed to inflate when an impact is detected
by side collision sensors depending on the severity of impact resulting from a side
impact collision.
Although the driver's and front passenger's air bags are designed to inflate
only in frontal collisions, they also may inflate in other types of collisions if
the front impact sensors detect a sufficient impact. Side and curtain air bags are
designed to inflate only in side impact collisions or rollover situations, but they
may inflate in other collisions if the side impact sensors detect a sufficient impact.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by bumps or objects on unimproved roads, the
air bags may deploy. Drive carefully on unimproved roads or on surfaces not designed
for vehicle traffic to prevent unintended air bag deployment.
Air bags are not designed to inflate in every collision. There are certain types
of accidents in which the air bag would not be expected to provide additional protection...
In certain low-speed collisions the air bags may not deploy. The air bags are
designed not to deploy in such cases because they may not provide benefits beyond
the protection of the seat belts...
