Supplemental Active Head Restraints (AHR) —
Front Seats
Supplemental Active Head Restraints are passive, deploy-
able components, and vehicles with this equipment can not
be readily identified by any markings, only through visual
inspection of the head restraint. The head restraint will be
split in two halves, with the front half being soft foam and
trim, the back half being decorative plastic.
When AHRs deploy during a rear impact, the front half of
the head restraint extends forward to minimize the gap
between the back of the occupant’s head and the AHR. This
system is designed to help prevent or reduce the extent of
injuries to the driver and front passenger in certain types of
rear impacts. Refer to “Occupant Restraint Systems” in
“Safety” for further information.
