Other information:
It is a common misconception that airbags should deploy in every accident. In reality, many types of low-energy or specific-angle accidents do not require the supplemental protection that an airbag provides, as the seat belt system alone is designed to be the primary safety restraint. Conditions where airbags may not deploy in your Kia K4 include, but are not limited to, rear-end impacts, secondary or tertiary collisions in multi-impact accidents, and low-speed impacts where the deceleration forces do not meet the strict criteria for airbag activation.Kia K4 (CL4) 2025-2026 Owner's Manual: Reverse Parking Collision-Avoidance Assist (PCA):
