My family members and I have big latex allergies. Do we have to worry about latex in our airbags?

I could think not.

Latex has a tendency to "dry rot" over the years and since they have to ensure the airbags for the life of the car, I don't think they could use something that's know to rot out.

never thought of that I better call my dealer and talk to them but I think they're usually talc and cloth

remember that airbags have caustic chemicals in them by design, some normal people are blinded by airbags.
I could propose to get front airbags removed as long as you wear your seat belts.

and,
close your eyes when it's to late to do anything more before you hit something.

also carry water in a strong container that you keep in the trunk so that you may wash out your eyes after the airbags go off so that you don't have to live with no vision.

front airbags are really bad things I believe.
but I really like side air bags

if your airbags are set off, the least of your worries will be latex.
everyone has problems with chemicals that dissolve your skin

remember subaru airbags are the safe design, they kill not many people.
