Yes that is true that airbag can kill your pet. Console car seat is the best one if you have car that has airbag in a driver side and the passanger side. I have Toyota Camry but I have only airbag on my side so when Maxi rides with me he is in his car seat on the passanger side. I also have Infinity sport Q35 coupe and that car has both airbags thats why I am gonna buy console car seat for my baby. Does anyone knows a good console car seat for a yorkie who is 6 pounds? I found a couple online but it says its only for pets that are no more then 4 pounds
