How do airbags catch fire?
Airbags do not typically catch fire, but their rapid deployment relies on a fast chemical reaction and an electric igniter (squib) that generate extreme heat and sparks. If a malfunction occurs, or if hot gases and sparks contact flammable materials like torn dashboard plastic, wiring insulation, or leaking fuel during a crash, a fire can start.
