WARNING: Accidental air bag deployment is possible. Personal injury may result. Always place removed seat back assembly, containing air bag module, at least 7.9 inches (201 mm) away from any surface which may be contacted by air bag module, should it deploy.
NOTE: Side impact air bag module cannot be replaced separately. If side air bag is malfunctioning or deployed, replace applicable front seat back assembly.
