Abstract: An assembly includes a seat. The assembly includes an armrest adjacent the seat with the armrest being elongated along an axis. The assembly includes a bar supported by the armrest. The bar is translatable along the axis from a stowed position overlapping the armrest to a deployed position extended from the armrest. The bar is pivotable relative to the armrest in a seat-inboard direction from a non-pivoted position to a pivoted position. The assembly includes an airbag supported the bar. The airbag is inflatable from the bar to an inflated position when the bar is in the deployed position and the pivoted position.

Abstract: An assembly of a dash for a vehicle includes a first plate and a second plate movable along an axis away from the first plate. The second plate moves from an undeployed position to a deployed position. The assembly includes a spring between the first plate and the second plate that biases the second plate toward the deployed position. The assembly includes a post extending along the axis from the second plate through the first plate. The assembly includes a pin releasably engaging the post with the first plate in the undeployed position. The assembly includes a release supported by the first plate and connected to the pin. The pin is disengageable from the post transverse to the axis by the release.

Abstract: A system includes a pillar and a seatbelt retractor. The system includes a D-ring supported by and vertically movable relative to the pillar. The system includes a webbing extending from the seatbelt retractor and through the D-ring, The system includes an actuator operatively coupled to the D-ring to vertically move the D-ring relative to the pillar. The system includes a computer having a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to determine that the seatbelt retractor in a nuisance locked state, and in response determining that the seatbelt retractor is in the nuisance locked state, command the actuator to move the D-ring vertically downward relative to the pillar.

Abstract: An assembly for a vehicle includes a dash. The assembly includes an airbag supported by the dash and being inflatable to an inflated position. The airbag includes a knee chamber, a chest chamber supported by the knee chamber in the inflated position, and a head chamber supported by the chest chamber in the inflated position. The chest chamber is connected to the knee chamber at a lower seam that defines a lower fluid pathway. The head chamber is connected to the chest chamber at an upper seam that defines an upper fluid pathway. The assembly includes an inflator supported by the dash and being connected directly to the knee chamber.

Abstract: A vehicle-hood assembly includes a vehicle hood and an energy absorber fixed to the vehicle hood. The energy absorber is releasable from a compressed position to an uncompressed position. The energy absorber includes a chamber that is sealed and vacuum pressurized in the compressed position.
