Welcome to the Pritzker | Ruohonen Car Accident Blog

Airbag Safety

Reduce the risk of injury from any frontal airbag by observing the following:
  • Buckle your safety belt.
  • Keep about 10 inches or more between your chest and the airbag cover.
  • Never place a rear-facing infant seat in front of an air bag, even a reduced-power or advanced air bag, unless the air bag on-off switch is in the OFF position.
  • Place children age 12 and under in the back seat, and make sure they are properly restrained, either in a safety belt or a child safety seat that is appropriate for their size, weight, and age.
  • Watch for car recalls involving airbags.
Warning!!! Even with advanced air bags, children can be killed or seriously injured by air bags. Always put children age 12 and under in the rear seat.

We have a national reputation in the area of product liability. If you were in a car accident and the air bag did not deploy, contact us regarding your accident toll-free at 1-888-377-8900 or submit our online consultation form (right) for review by one of our car accident lawyers.
