ABSTRACT:
An airbag module cover includes a panel which is designed to function as a portion of a vehicle's interior aesthetics. The cover includes at least one locking leg which is secured to a reaction canister. The leg carries the primary, or initially actuated, tearseam. Secondary tearseams are provided on the hidden surface of the panel and are not visible to an occupant. Transition openings in the leg transfer the bursting force from the primary to the secondary tearseams which form an airbag-releasing door upon actuation.
