WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT AIR BAGS
f you are among the millions of Americans who will soon purchase, lease or rent a motor vehicle, it will be equipped with one or more air bags. Air bags are called supplemental restraints because they are designed to work best in combination with safety belts. You should always wear your safety belt whether or not your car has an air bag. All new passenger cars, light trucks and vans are equipped with both driver and passenger front air bags. (While many new vehicles are being equipped with side air bags, this brochure focuses mainly on front air bags. See the "New Technology" section for informationon new air bag technologies.) |
