If you modify the cover of an airbag or affix objects such as stickers to it, the airbag may no longer function correctly.
The installation location of an airbag is identified by the AIRBAG symbol More.
Unsuitable seat covers can obstruct or prevent the deployment of the airbags integrated into the seats.
Consequently, the airbags cannot protect vehicle occupants as they are designed to do. In addition, the operation of the automatic front passenger airbag shutoff could be restricted.
Sensors to control the airbags are located in the doors. Modifications or work not performed correctly to the doors or door panelling, as well as damaged doors, can lead to the function of the sensors being impaired. The airbags might therefore not function properly any more.
Consequently, the airbags cannot protect vehicle occupants as they are designed to do.
A deployed airbag no longer offers any protection and cannot provide the intended protective function in the event of an accident.
Have deployed airbags replaced immediately.
