Toyota 4Runner Air Bag Parts & Components

City roads and highways are full of visible and hidden dangers that make them unsafe and precarious. Distracted drivers, reduced visibility, so-called blind zones, and many other factors put your and your passengers’ lives at risk, so automotive manufacturers do their best to make their vehicles safer. Modern cars, trucks, and SUVs are equipped with a number of safety features that can help drivers and passengers remain unhurt in case of a road accident, and an air bag is one of them. Air bags are gas-inflated cushions that can save your life. They are most typically built into the steering wheel or sometimes into dashboard, roof, doors, or seats.

The first air bags were introduced in 1971, but it was only in 1994 when the production of gas-inflated airbags, which are mandatory today, was started. An air bag can protect you from impact during a collision using a crash sensor to trigger a rapid expansion. Apart from that, air bag assemblies include clock springs, connectors, relays, and switches. If any of these parts gives up, the air bag of your Toyota 4Runner may fail to perform its function properly. To restore your air bag functionality, you’ll need high-quality, reliable replacement parts, and you can find them in our extensive catalog of Toyota 4Runner air bag parts and components.
