Side Impact Airbag System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The ORC controls the seat back mounted airbags (one left and one right). If a ORC determines the impact is severe enough, based upon a signal from the Satellite Acceleration Sensor (SAS), the ORC will send a signal and the appropriate airbag will inflate, tearing open the front seat back trim cover protecting the occupants. Once a seat back mounted airbag has been deployed, the entire seat back as well as any damaged parts must be replaced.
