Collision from side of vehicle
- Because a sensor is built into the pressure sensor, once the side air bag, the curtain air bag, pre-tensioner seat belt and lap pre-tensioner seat belt have operated (deployed) due to a collision or other causes, the pressure sensor must be replaced with a new one even if the used one does not have any visible external damage or deformation. If the pressure sensor is reused, the side air bag, the curtain air bag, pre-tensioner seat belt and lap pre-tensioner seat belt may not operate (deploy) normally, which could result in a serious accident. Always replace the pressure sensor with a new one.
