<p>A vehicle (10) has an upper front interior corner (28) and at least one seating position for a vehicle occupant (6). An air bag assembly (40) includes an inflator (42) for generating gas; and an air bag (44) deployable upon generation of gas by the inflator (42). The air bag (44) is stored in the upper front interior corner (28) of the vehicle (10), and the air bag (44) is a single integral air bag (44) having a frontal portion (54) and a side portion (50). The frontal portion (54) and the side portion (50) are in fluid communication with each other. Upon air bag deployment, the frontal portion (54) deploys downwardly and in front of the vehicle occupant and the side portion deploys downwardly and to the side of the vehicle occupant (6) such that the air bag (44) wraps around the occupant (6) during deployment. Preferably, the frontal portion (54) and the side portion (50) are generally 90 degrees relative to each other. Also preferably, the vehicle (10) has air bag assemblies (40) in opposite front upper interior corners (28) that are mirror images of each other for commonizations of parts.</p> |
