An air bag (22) having: an inflatable cushion portion (30) and a neck portion (32) in communication therewith, the neck portion defines a receiving opening to receive inflation gas, received from an inflator, to inflate the cushion portion (30). The air bag is made from flexible material and a retainer member(s) (70a,b; 100) and is preferably sewn to at least a part of the neck portion to reinforce the neck portion and to reduce the flexibility of the neck portion. The invention further includes an air bag module that utilizes the above air bag. The module includes a housing and an inflator. The housing has grooves (50a,b) for receiving a first edge of a retainer member and further includes a holding member (41a,b) formed as part of a wall of the housing (24) and which is bent or crimped over to hold a second edge of the retainer member.
