Honda Pilot / Honda Pilot 2009-2026 Owner's Manual / Safe Driving / Airbags / Front Airbags (SRS) / Operation

Front airbags are designed to inflate during moderate-to-severe frontal collisions. When the vehicle decelerates suddenly, the sensors send information to the control unit which signals one or both front airbags to inflate. A frontal collision can be either head-on or angled between two vehicles, or when a vehicle crashes into a stationary object, such as a concrete wall.
