Best Answer

when your crash you hit a sensor and it sends a shock to the airbag whick ignights a fuse that triggers a explosion and forces hot air into the air bag which is why when an air bag is deployed its hot and causes burns/ scratches look like road rash it also doesn't help the airbag has to be strong and the material feels like 1000 grit sand paper

You might not find this answer the best, but to remove the air simply open the bag a bit and suck all the air out and as you are sucking the air out close it.

If not, the vehicle should be taken to a dealer for service of the air bag.
