Does this seatbelts keep the air bag from deploying an accident?

Airbag deployment is not regulated by whether there is an unrestrained passenger or not. Airbags go off regardless of whether there is something buckled in - that's why airbags are called supplemental restraint systems. A seatbelt is the primary means of restraint for people and dogs. I'm with Marcia - you should not have anyone/thing in an airbag protected front seat who weighs less than 80-90 pounds as the force of the airbag can and will cause harm. You should never have your dog up front unrestrained regardless as they would be through the windshield in less than a heartbeat if a crash were to occur.

I would not have my dogs in the front seat, so I don't think the airbag situation would arise. They are adjustable, so depending on the size of your dog, you can shorten or lengthen to allow the room to move which you feel is safe for your pet.

It probably depends on the car and the size of the dog. In my car, the passenger airbag is only activated if the seatbelt is clipped and the weight in the passenger seat is over 65 pounds. A lot of newer cars do this in order to prevent airbag injuries to small children. So if you have a large dog, clipping the belt might actually activate the airbag.

The seat protector should not block the use of your two outer seat belts when you are using the protector in the middle seat. It may lap over a bit into the thigh space of the outer seats, but you won't need to fold the edge in for access to the belts. The protector is sturdy but flexible with molded folds at the back rear edge, front edge and belt notches on each side.

No. The material is relatively thin. It's mainly good for protecting your seats, not for elevating the driver.

I'm not sure....I don't think the car we put it in has side impact air bags...but it should be noted that in order to get the bottoms to stay on, you have to remove the seats from the car and secure them underneath.

thankfully,no...but my dog was safely contained during a couple of hard-braking events...I feel she would have been thrown about and possibly injured without wearing the Solv-It..I've used this product for at least two years and highly recommend it!

technically, there are seatbelts, but they don't provide any true protection as they are one inch nylon strips with Velcro to attach them. Since the ride on toy truck doesn't have opening doors, my kids have never accidentally fallen out. Another ride on we have has no doors and the kids fell out when they were less than than 3 years old.

I wouldn't know. It was a gift for my sister...one she was super excited about...until we discovered my sister's KIA had airbags built into her seats. That's an automatic no no. Anything that can obstruct an airbag is a major safety hazard. We never took it out of the box since she couldn't use it and I shipped it back to amazon to get a refund. I would think as long as you do NOT have airbags built into your seat you should be fine though.

Yes. These will help prevent rocks and dirt from being thrown onto your car.

I only use this in the back seat, I would never buckle my dog into the front seat BECAUSE of the air bag. She isn't really heavy enough to put the passenger air bag light on but I wouldn't want to chance the air bag going off and killing her with it's force as it did a friend's friend's dog. So the answer to your question is it probably won't keep the airbag from deploying but it will keep the dog from becoming a missle in a forceful accident. My two dogs in the backseat won't be thrown into the front seat when they wear their "seat belts" that attach to their car harnesses (never their collars due to choking hazard).

If you are asking about interfering with the seat belts the answer is no. They did not intefere.

They have not but just to be sure ( because we had a 3 hr. drive) my husband used a zip tie at the end of each strap. Not even sure we needed it but we did not want to find out on the highway. &#128526;

No. The vehicle's seat belt passes through this booster seat's brackets/clips and is used as a restraint.

Yes it has anchors. The user manual actually stated not to use seat belts and anchors at the same time. Please make sure to follow up on that. God bless

The Solvit seat covers don't fit as snug as the ordinary car seats. they are held on the back of the seat with three elastic bands . I believe that the airbags would still deploy since the elastic is not extremely tight and spaced out equally.

They prevent the buckle from sliding down the harness. I don't believe there is a slot on any buckle wider than this gizmo.

I don't believe that it did. It does have a space for the seatbelt to attach to, but the straps you are seeing are the ones you carry it with. It works great, though and we were very happy with it. It's more lightweight than the plastic crates

Yes, that is where I have mine. Seatbelt slides through the side, over the base of the seat (under cushion) and out the other side to "click" belt closed securely. I have a 2013 Malibu and it fits fine in the seat. As for the airbag, that is a good call out. My car has a safety measure where the airbag is off unless there is greater than 100 pounds in the seat.
