AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)05/02 Report--

As an important safety protection device on the vehicle, the airbag can distribute the impact force evenly in the head and chest, prevent the fragile passenger body from directly colliding with the car body, greatly reduce the possibility of injury and effectively protect passengers. However, there have been recent media reports that a Toyota Asian dragon tumbled after a collision and 10 airbags did not eject.

According to Xiaolou, his father spent 250000 yuan on an Asian dragon in January last year. When he bought the car, the 4S store salesman introduced that the car had 10 airbags and the safety factor was relatively high. In April this year, my father collided while driving, and the car hit a sidewalk sign. after the crash, the whole car overturned and rolled into the field, eventually turning its feet upside down. According to the video, the front bumper of the car has been dented, the windshield is broken and the top of the car is in a mess. Xiaolou admitted that his father was tired driving caused the accident, at that time only his father, fortunately, nothing serious, only suffered a little skin injury. However, what puzzled him was that in such a big accident, none of the airbags in the car popped up.

The after-sales manager of the 4S store explained that it does not mean that the airbag will pop up as soon as there is an accident, it must have a specific point. If you touch the airbag slightly, it will pop out, then it is not a good thing. It feels that you are going to get hurt or how it will pop out. If you will not get hurt, if it pops up, you will not be on guard, and the airbag will also hurt people.

The after-sales manager said that the airbags around the driver's seat are on the steering wheel, on both sides of the seat, and on the top of the door. Each airbag has its own trigger point, and the location of the trigger point is a sensor. When the sensor receives enough external force, the airbag will pop out.

Xiaolou said that the front anti-collision steel beam has been sunken, the entire windshield and the roof are damaged, resulting in overturning four tires all upside down, not a single airbag popped out, so when will it pop out? The after-sales manager said that the sensor of the airbag on the top of the car is not at the top, but on the side of the vehicle. At the same time, the airbag on the steering wheel requires two sensors directly in front of the car, which are installed on both sides of the two girders. Because the father of the building, the car hit right in the middle, the possibility that the airbag will not pop out is also very high.

Xiaolou hopes that the 4S store can give an authoritative written explanation on the reason why the Asian dragon airbag did not pop up. The after-sales manager said that after communicating with the manufacturer, as long as the customer agrees, the data of the vehicle at that time can be read. In this regard, Xiaolou agreed.
