What should i do when my peugeot 206 airbags activated?
Answers:
You will need to get the airbags and the control module replaced.I would also have the underside of the car checked carefully as it is unusual for the airbags to deploy in 'slight' impacts.
just cut them off and go to the garage and get a new set.bet they scared you when they popped out lol
Contact your main Peugeot dealer there must be a fault in manufacture
What were you doing 40mph when you hit it? Go to garage and get them replaced, also ask them to check your tension activators on the seat belts there is a electrical wire under seat(s) that sends the current to activate it on some cars, and if you've bust your tyre, check the wheel balance/ovality and even steering arms & linkage. Trust me, I've been hit by a car at 15mph and caused £2000 worth of damage all cos I was on full steering lock when he hit me.
I suggest you don't drive it but if you are in a breakdown service call them out and get the car taken to a garage for repairs. There may be more damage than you realise
Get in touch with Peugeot.
Airbags should NOT activate with a slight bump .
Brake earlier!
if all the others fail ,. carry a pin in your hand , while driving
my wife`s airbags deployed when i was driving, I happened to look and it nearly caused an accident.
You gotta love that French engineering.
Replacement of the SRS will likely total the vehicle.
"Slight bumps" don't set off airbags. Heavy bumps do. After you replace the airbag, pretensioners and control module (ker-ching!) get the suspension/steering looked at.
Have it put back in at a peugeot garage as this is a specialist job. you need to know what you are doing to put it back properly.
Take your car to a main dealer or a suitable body shop, deployed air bags void your insurance.
