LINCOLN MKT 2019 Repair Manual

The fact that the safety belt pretensioners orfront airbags did not activate for both frontseat occupants in a crash does not meanthat something is wrong with the system.Rather, it means the restraints control moduledetermined the accident conditions (crashseverity, belt usage) were not appropriate toactivate these safety devices.
•The design of the front airbags is toactivate only in frontal and near-frontalcrashes (not rollovers, side impacts orrear impacts) unless the crash causessufficient frontal deceleration.
•The safety belt pretensioners and rearinflatable safety belts are designed toactivate in frontal, near-frontal, side androllover crashes.
•The design of the side airbags is to inflatein certain side crashes. Side airbags mayactivate in other types of crashes if thevehicle experiences sufficient sidewaysmotion or deformation.
•The design of the Safety Canopy is toinflate in certain side impact crashes andwhen a certain likelihood of rollover isdetected by the rollover sensor. TheSafety Canopy may activate in othertypes of crashes if the vehicleexperiences sufficient sideways motionor deformation, or a certain likelihood ofrollover.
AIRBAG DISPOSAL
Contact your authorized dealer as soon aspossible. Airbags must be disposed of byqualified personnel.
