The third row side air curtains are installed on the cant rails above the rear quarter windows, behind the headliner.
Each side air curtain has an inflator, which is attached to the D pillar by a mounting bracket and two screws. The inflator is connected to the air curtain by a gas guide pipe. The gas guide pipe and air curtain are secured to the cant rail by two screws. Tethers are attached to the front and rear of the air curtain. The front tether is anchored to the C pillar. The rear tether is anchored to the D pillar and held in position by a tether housing.
When a third row side air curtain deploys, it extends downwards from behind the headliner. The expanding air curtain tightens the tethers, which retain the air curtain in position against the rear quarter window.
