Hyundai Santa Cruz: Why didn’t my air bag go off in a
collision? / Air bag collision sensors
WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag
deploying unexpectedly and causing
serious injury or death:
- Do not hit or allow any objects to
impact the locations where air bags
or sensors are installed.
- Do not perform maintenance on or
around the air bag sensors. If the
location or angle of the sensors is
altered, the air bags may deploy
when they should not or may not
deploy when they should.
- Installing bumper guards with nongenuine
Hyundai or non-equivalent
parts may adversely affect the
collision and airbag deployment
performance.
- Place the ignition switch in theLOCK/
OFF or ACC position and wait for 3
minutes when the vehicle is being
towed to prevent inadvertent air bag
deployment.
- Have all air bag repairs are
conducted by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
