Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS side airbags and cur-
tain shield airbags

The SRS side airbags and curtain shield airbags are not generally designed
to inflate if the vehicle is involved in a frontal or rear collision, if it rolls over,
or if it is involved in a low-speed side collision.
