A vehicular cabin monitoring system includes an air sensing device disposed at a vehicular component disposed within an interior cabin of a vehicle. The air sensing device samples air at the vehicular component and generates sensor data representative of a sample of air at the vehicular component. The system, via processing of captured sensor data, determines a level of air contaminant within the interior cabin that is indicative of (i) a level of contaminant particulates and/or (ii) a level of contaminant gas. The system generates an alert to a driver of the vehicle and adjusts operation of a vehicular system responsive to determination that the level of air contaminant is greater than a threshold level.

System and method for triggering the opening of a passenger vehicle's electric side windows and/or sunroof window in case of unexpected events such as, but not limited to submersion, collision, rollover, collisions involving rollovers, fire, as well as certain ranges of oxides and volatile organic compounds and/or other harmful gases present within the vehicle; and to give drivers and passengers the opportunity to exit the vehicle in such situations.

An assembly includes a drive device, a component to be displaced relative to a wall element for closing an opening of the wall element, and a guide device with which the component can be displaced relative to the wall element. A switch and/or a sensor system, preferably a metal detector, allows a partially open position of the component to be detected and/or allows the drive device to be activated, preferably based on a detection of the partially open position starting from a fully open position, and/or allows the drive device to be deactivated, preferably based on a detection of the partially open position starting from a closed position.
