Seat Side Air Bags

SEAT SIDE AIR BAGS

Driver and passenger seat side air bags are attached to the seat backrest frame. For diagnostic information, or if the seat side air bag has deployed, refer to Air Bag Systems.

Front seat backrest trim covers installed on seats with seat side air bags cannot be repaired. Install new front seat backrest trim covers. Cleaning is permissible.

If a seat side air bag deployment took place, new seat back foam pad, trim cover, seat side air bag module, bracket and nuts, and U-nuts and bolts must be installed. Install a new seat backrest frame, if necessary.
