Go google Dr Cermin. For small cracks it should be easy to fix.

You are right...but at speeds above 35km will only the airbags deploys, those with a lot of speed bumps at their taman like mine (total 14), one can never drive fast

Never say never, you may think that it is slow but wait till you see a robber speeding through your housing estate at breakneck speeds and crash into a slow moving car.

Better buckle up then....JFYI....an airbag will ONLY deploy at high speed crash to save your life IF NECCESSARY, when deployed you should be alive, it does not simply deploy at any crash only at speeds 35km and above or below, the main purpose of the airbag is to deploy if it needs to to save your life, it is designed not to deploy at any crash inadvertently, in most cases if the airbag does not deploy means you are safe from injury and the airbag is working properly....No one wants a inadvertent deployment of the airbag, imagine the cost of putting it back, what if you knock a bicycle, how about a kerb?...airbag deployed??...Plse understand the purpose and use of the airbag before you comment...btw...its individual preference...I never forced anyone to buy my stuff, If you want to give advice plse do so at all the forums/chats/topics...40% tint/hid lights/cushion buffer/window visor/number plates...etc, just to name a few....BTW...already sold 17pairs out of my 20pairs stock, 03 more to go to complete my transactions...just incase...iam not your bro...BRO!!

1) This is indeed a forum to share experience. Hence I am sharing. What logic are you asking me to give advice at the forums/chats/topics? I am doing just that here. Don't be so bloody defensive and take everything mentioned here as criticism. If you can't even provide logical facts show that you only think of selling and never think of any other consequences.

2) Who says that the airbag will only be deployed on a high speed crash? An airbag will deploy according to various sensors in various places round the car. Depends on car of course. That means the airbag will still deploy even though the car is stationary and when another vehicle crashes into it with enough force. Again different situation for different cars.

3) Please understand where the rest of us are coming from before trying to engage in what you call your defensive stand of your product because in this day an age, just having a defense saying that "x many people have bought my product already" will ever cut it for people who are more well informed.

Again this is a forum for sharing and discussion. In no way have I ever said that your product is stupid. You just inferred it yourself by your own answers.

Again like I said, you just contradicted yourself.

So lets break it down easier for you to understand.

1) You posted this in the post previously

As your post mentioned, it is for when you are driving slowly in your taman with 14 humps

2) You then posted this response again, from Ford with all the certifications.

As you can see here, your expert says that the car has to be running and moving for the airbags to be deployed.

My argument all this while is that even though you say your taman with 14 humps will make you drive slowly but there is always a chance where others may not. In my example I gave where robbers were trying to make a quick getaway and caused an accident.

So again, you don't get what the root of the issue is.

Also if you want to copy and paste something from the web, please ensure the context is shown otherwise what you are doing is known as spin doctoring.

It is very easy to spot someone doing that especially when you just posted screenshots of his reply instead of the full context.

Full context can be seen here:
http://www.justanswer.com/car/2y9im-air-ba...car-engine.html

The question raised to Randall C (your expert)
Will an air bag react as planned when a stationary car with the engine off is hit by a moving vehicle?

Note that in the question, neither any mention of the car model nor brand is stated in here as well. Also note that the question was raised 5 years ago. Technology may change in 5 years (up to for dispute but there are possibilities).

Another place of reference which I am just taking off the internet
http://www.safercar.gov/Vehicle+Shoppers/A...+Bag+Deployment

Taking out the 4 and 5th point from the said article above:

For sure I am no expert compared to you line of experts but I am for safety and advocating safety. So back to the root of the issue, it isn't about just whether the vehicle is stationary or not. What I am trying to say that because of your product which you sell to fool the car in which you have a safety belt on, if you have a crash (even at low speeds) and your airbags deploy, it can cause you more serious injuries.

Found this article if you want to read about other cars and how their airbag deployment system work.
