An exemplary driver airbag module may include an inflatable cushion having a chamber that inflates up to a maximum volume. The airbag module may also have a fabric diffuser disposed within the chamber. The inflatable cushion and the fabric diffuser can be configured to deploy at least a portion of the inflatable cushion forward of a steering wheel in response to an out-of-position occupant preventing rearward expansion of the inflatable cushion up to the maximum volume.
