Servicing Your Facial
Air
Bag-Equipped Vehicle
The facial air bag affects how your vehicle should be serviced. There are
parts of the air bag system in several places around your vehicle. You don’t
want the system to inflate while someone is working
on
your vehicle. Your
GM dealer and
the
1995
GM Service Manual have information about
servicing your vehicle and the air bag system.
To
purchase a service manual,
see “Service Publications”
in
the Index. The air bag system does not need
regular maintenance.
Adding Equipment to Your Facial Air Bag-Equipped
Vehicle

If
I
add
a
push bumper
or
a bicycle rack to the front
of
my
vehicle,
will it keep the air bag
from
working properly?
A:
As long as the push bumper or bicycle rack is attached to your vehicle
so
that the vehicle’s basic structure isn’t changed, it’s not likely to keep
the air bags from working properly in a crash.
Q:
Is
there anything
I
might add to the front
of
the vehicle that
could
keep the air bag from working properly?
A:
Yes. If you add things that change your vehicle’s frame, bumper
system, front end sheet metal or height, they may keep the air bag
system from working properly. Also, the air bag system may not work
properly if
you
relocate any of
the
air bag sensors.
If
you
have any
question about this,
you
should contact Customer Assistance before
you modify your vehicle. (The phone numbers and addresses for
Customer Assistance are
in
Step Two of
the
Customer Satisfaction
Procedure in this manual. See “Customer Satisfaction Procedure” in
the Index
