Parts After a Crash
If an airbag inflates or the vehicle
has been in a crash, the vehicle's
sensing system may command the
automatic hybrid battery disconnect
to open. When the battery
disconnect is open, the hybrid
battery will be off and the vehicle
will not start. The airbag readiness
light and/or SERVICE HYBRID
SYSTEM warning message may
come on in the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See “Airbag
Readiness Light” in the owner
manual and Driver Information
Center (DIC) on page 5‑5 for more
information.
To operate the vehicle, the
automatic hybrid battery disconnect
must be reconnected by a qualified
service technician and sensing
system parts will need to be
replaced. Have the vehicle serviced
right away.
