Correct answer

  • ANo, ya que el soporte puede obstaculizar la correcta apertura del airbag.No, because the holder may stop the airbag from opening properly.

No. The holder of the GPS, or of any other device placed where the airbag opens, can stop it from opening properly or be thrown at the occupants in a collision. These devices must be placed outside that area and without blocking the view.
