Side Curtain Airbag Safety Precautions
CAUTION:
- Always replace damaged pillar trim panels, never repair.
- Head curtain airbags must not be kinked or twisted.
- After body repairs, inspect the body for weld splatter, deformations and chafing areas near the head curtain airbag (compare with opposite side if necessary).
- If a deployed head curtain airbag is replaced, the headliner, door seals with weather stripping, curtain airbag guides, grab handle brackets, and the A, B, C and (if equipped) D pillar trim must be replaced. If damaged, the rear interior lights, the roof grab handles and the roof close-out molding must be replaced.
