Description
This left seat airbag is designed specifically for the driver seat in Citroën Xantia and Peugeot 406 vehicles. It serves as a critical safety component, providing vital protection during side-impact collisions by rapidly inflating to cushion the occupant and reduce injury risk.
Typically installed within the seat frame on the left side, replacing this airbag requires removal of the seat trim and careful handling of electrical connectors to avoid damage to the airbag system. It is recommended that replacement is performed by qualified technicians or experienced DIY enthusiasts familiar with airbag safety procedures.
Over time, seat airbags may fail or become unresponsive due to electrical faults, sensor malfunctions, or deployment history. Common symptoms indicating a faulty seat airbag include dashboard warning lights and failure to inflate during collisions. Regular inspection as part of vehicle safety maintenance is advisable to ensure proper functionality.
