AN OVERVIEW OF AUTOMOBILE AIRBAG DEFECTS

Abstract

 Automotive airbag system has augmented occupant safety through the incorporation of increasingly sophisticated features. An airbag is an automotive safety restraint system consisting of a cushion, designed to inflate rapidly during collision. It absorbs the shock and reduces the number the casualty rate. The success of this safety system heavily depends on its correct implementation and timing of its inflation. The objective of this study is to present front air bag defects and its adverse effects on the occupants. It is important to understand how failures occur and which mechanism is responsible for injuries. This study shows the importance of using the seat belts alongwith airbag to provide adequate safety to the occupants.
