Side Air Bag Modules

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lincoln Blackwood. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The side air bag modules are located behind outboard bolster of left and right front seat backs. The seat back cover is specially designed to allow air bag deployment. In certain lateral collisions, the side air bag module will deploy upon receiving signal from Restraints Control Module (RCM) initiated by the side crash sensor.
