A common question asked is, 'How much does an airbag cost?'. If you need to replace or repair an airbag in your vehicle, the cost will vary depending on the type of car you are driving, as well as which airbag needs to be replaced.

After a vehicle collision has been detected, airbags inflate faster than you can blink your eye.

Air bags have deployed approximately 800,000 times since 1995, saving more than 1,700 lives.

Air bags work when an electronic sensor in the car senses a sudden, sharp deceleration (such as a crash) and detonates a small charge which inflates the bags

Airbags are key components in automotive safety systems, and, although we can see them perform with the naked eye, they soften the impact of collisions by keeping passengers form contacting the steering wheel, dashboard front glass, and other parts of the automobile.

Airbags are stretchable fabrics or other materials that are tightly packed in various locations throughout your vehicle.

Airbags are stretchable fabrics or other materials that are tightly packed in various locations throughout your vehicle. There are airbags at the front of the dashboard in most cars, and many vehicles have airbags along the side of the car as well.

Before looking at specifics, let's review our knowledge of the laws of motion. First, we know that moving objects have momentum (the product of the mass and the velocity of an object).

Hospital injury claims have been reduced by 24%

If your vehicle has an airbag light, and it is lit up, this could indicate faulty airbags or a problem with the airbag system

Once the control unit determines there is an accident, it sends a signal to the inflator system. The inflator sets off a chemical charge, producing an explosion of nitrogen gas, filling up the airbag.

Since model year 1998, all new cars sold in the United States have been required to have airbags on both driver and passenger sides.

Stopping an object's momentum requires force acting over a period of time. When a car crashes, the force required to stop an object is very great because the car's momentum has changed instantly while the passengers' has not -- there is not much time to work with.

The air bag is inflated at speeds up to 200 miles per hour. This faster than the blink of an eye.

The jury is still out on the best airbag sensors system. For example, Toyota and Jaguar use electromechanical airbag igniters in which a small switch senses a crash force. If it is great enough, an igniter pin drives into the sodium azide packets used to inflate airbags.

The most important parts of the success of the airbag system are the crash sensors. These small pieces of electronics are designed to tell when the vehicle has been damaged in an accident.

The speed of an airbag deployment will vary depending on the vehicle and the seriousness of the accident.

There are a number of places that have used airbags for sale. Used airbags are much cheaper than brand new ones, and if they have never been deployed, they are just as safe as new ones. Used airbags are removed from dead vehicles.

Two types of airbag sensors used in cars are electrical and mechanical. Electrical sensors vary in design.

the heating element ignites a chemical explosive. Older airbags used sodium azide as their explosive; newer ones use different chemicals. As the explosive burns, it generates a massive amount of harmless gas (typically either nitrogen or argon) that floods into a nylon bag packed behind the steering wheel.
