are they safe for cars with side air bags?

They're just a seat cover and shouldn't interfere with anything. I don't see how they would affect an air bag any more than the seat itself!

They will with no issues. We have filled them up to almost 100 with a fully loaded Toy Hauler camper trailer on the back and had no issues. The airbags work great

I had the same question back in the day & the answer was yes. Be sure not to cover side vents.

I have driven with them on their sides on my roof basket. They did not leak. Not extensive testing, but it seems like a good solid seal.

As for my Honda reflex, once I put them off, I just leave them there...it doesn't seem to loose air either over time.

It should be fine. The rack is secured (strap tightening) inside the car so as long as it is secured tightly you should have no problem.

They do accommodate air bags, amazon has always been helpful with any issues I've ever had

Not sure what you would do about the airbag. Check out the grant website and see what they have for an adapter kit for your vehicle

I think you would be ok they are pretty strong it just depends on your racks on your vehicle best to check with car manufacturer

Hello Jennifer;I asked our manufacture this question and learned that someone did have an accident and the seat air bags were able to break through these car seat covers and deploy protecting the driver. However I can not guarantee it will do this with all cars with seat air bags and for safety reasons I would advise not to use these covers on cars with air bags built into the seat. Some of our customers said they cut open a slot and hem the edges where the air bags are located. This would allow the air bags to deploy without any resistance.

as long as you do not have side impact airbags these will be an okay fit on your vehicle.

Yes, will void factory warranty and can cause air bag issues in a event of an accident as happened to a friend using this device.

Yes they are. I got a pair of my own for my car, and I LOVED them. They are extremely durabale and are coated with polyethylene on the back wich is like the silver duck tape you'd use for pressure-sensitive things and they are weather-resistant. I have drove with those over 90* F and under 30*F and through heavy storms and dry humidity, and they are still in perfect condition. If you really want those, I highly recommend getting them, and don't worry about the air blubbles you might develope upon putting them on, cause the heat will flatten them out. Hope I helped answering your question!! :)

The ones I ordered for my 2007 Element do have an area for the airbag to pop out, I don't think they are allowed to sell them if they don't. I love them they look great!

They are pretty stretchy with the material but I'm not the one to answer such a safety question my best bet would be to do research on car seat covers and effect s of air bag saftey

We only used 2 of the clips, along the top. We didn't use 2 on the sides. We attached the bag to the back of the car, we did not put it on the roof. We had a Mazda CX7. We did have a bit of a problem with the support poles staying in place, but we may have had too much weight in the bag although it definitely wasn't going anywhere. We made a trip from N Dakota to California. Good luck!

Yes, they're easy to use. I whldnt think you'd have much issue. Of course, the stronger you are going to get more air out of the bag.
