This printer is totalled. Normally to deploy and airbag a car must travel 25 mph and have angle of impact greater than 30 degrees. During an accident the airbags deploy by receiving a signal to the inflator unit within the airbag control unit. We test this with an airbag deploying against a Printer to see the impact.
There are airbag replacement laws and if an airbag is recalled then the airbag cannot be sold. Be mindful that a recalled airbag should not be replaced with another recalled airbag of the same type. And, it is not recommended to try and repair a deployed airbag. Take the recalled airbag to a dealer and get the airbag replacement done by a professional.
