An air curtain assembly includes a side air curtain 14 having a top edge and being inflatable from an uninflated position to an inflated position. In the uninflated position, the side air curtain extends along a longitudinal axis. A first flap 18 is attached to the top edge (16, Fig 3) and an elongated flap 20 is attached to the first flap. The elongated flap extends from the first flap at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis. As such, as the air curtain inflates from the uninflated position to the inflated position, the elongated flap is disposed between the side air curtain and a side roof rail 22 of the vehicle to limit or prevent abrasion of the side air curtain as the side air curtain is inflated. Other forms of the invention include a fastener 30 included in the vehicle side rail and a means for extending the first flap between the fastener and side air curtain in the inflated position.
