Two front impact sensors are attached to the body behind the radiator grille. The RCM processes the crash data sent by the impact sensors against stored data, and deploys the front air bags and pretensioners.

Two side impact sensors are mounted at the base of the B pillars to facilitate lateral impact sensing. In the event of a side impact, the RCM processes the crash data against the stored data. The RCM will deploy the side air bag module on the side the deployment request was initiated.
