Seat Belt Pretensioners
The pretensioners operate differently depending on what types of air bags are equipped. For more details about seat belt pretensioner operation, refer to the SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria (Search).
Front
The front seat belt pretensioners are designed to deploy in moderate or severe frontal, near frontal collisions.
In addition, the pretensioners operate when a side collision or a roll-over accident (with roll-over sensor) is detected.
Rear Outboard (Some Models)
The rear outboard seat belt pretensioners are designed to deploy in moderate or severe frontal, near frontal collisions.
