Airbag sensitivity in Gen2

[unashamed7]

I’ve tried to search for other threads covering this but didn’t find any.

Has anyone had an airbag go off while jumping or off roading in a Gen2/Gen3 F150 Raptor?

I’m curious if others pull the fuses or if certain off road modes reduce airbag sensitivity.

I know this guy somehow caused his bags to deploy.

to actually answer you Baja mode delays the airbag deployment

I never get tired of watching that ...

Baja mode reduces the sensitivity of the airbag deployment but does not fully disable it for obvious reasons. Plenty of videos of guys still getting them to deploy.

If you're seriously planning on jumping it far enough where you think airbags might deploy - I'd ask you: why?

Thank you! I thought as much but wanted to confirm before heading to the dunes just in case. Recently picked up a 2017 gen2 and am loving it.

Definitely not planning to deploy the airbags… just wanted to make sure some light dunes/jumps wouldn’t trigger any airbags. Thanks!

Following up, do other drive modes also reduce airbag sensitivity? Or is it just Baja?

I turned my airbags off with Forskin
