Service of Deployed Airbag Module

Any vehicle which is to be returned to use after an airbag deployment, must have both airbag modules, and the clockspring replaced. These components will be damaged or weakened as a result of an airbag deployment, which may or may not be obvious during a visual inspection, and are not intended for reuse.

Other vehicle components should be closely inspected. but are to be replaced only as required by the extent of the visible damage incurred.
