WARNING!
Deployed airbags can’t protect you in another colli-

sensors detect a moderate-to-severe frontal collision, to

are not caused by contact with chemicals. They are not
permanent and normally heal quickly. However, if you
haven’t healed significantly within a few days, or if
you have any blistering, see your doctor immediately.
