Airbag Systems

Back To Services

Airbags are a critical part of your vehicle’s safety system, designed to deploy in the event of a collision to reduce injury risk. If your airbag warning light is illuminated, the system may not function correctly in an emergency.

 

Airbag systems include sensors, control modules and seatbelt pre-tensioners that must operate seamlessly. Faults can occur due to wiring issues, crash data storage or sensor failures.

 

We repair airbag system faults with Bosch or manufacturer equipment for all the brands we specialise in, ensuring your vehicle’s safety systems are fully operational and compliant with safety standards.

FAQs

Airbag FAQs

Airbags generally do not require routine servicing, but they should be inspected if the warning light appears or after a crash. Some manufacturers recommend airbag module inspection after a certain age; check your vehicle’s handbook.

Airbags use sensors to detect sudden deceleration in a crash. The system then deploys a rapidly inflating bag to cushion occupants, reducing the risk of injury by spreading impact forces more safely.

No. Driving with this warning light on can put you at risk, as safety systems may not function in a collision. You should have the system checked and repaired promptly.

If the airbag or SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) warning light stays on, it suggests a fault with the airbag system. This means airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may not deploy correctly in an accident.
