Airbags are critical safety components of all modern cars. In the event of a collision, they inflate rapidly to provide a cushioning pillow of air, often preventing vehicle occupants from sustaining major injuries.

Nowadays, air bags are located in many places throughout a car. The primary airbags are in the steering wheel and in the dashboard in front of the passenger seat. Your vehicle may also have side impact air bags that are located above each window and/or on or near the door pillar.

In some cases, airbags will deploy in collisions that did not result in serious damage to the vehicle. Since airbags can only be deployed once, they must be replaced. Replacement costs from a dealer can be prohibitively expensive and that's why many people use our parts locating service to find replacement air bags.

As with any safety device, it is important that you provide the salvage yards with as much information about your vehicle as possible. This will help to ensure that you're getting the right air bag for your car.
