1 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 06/20/2009

Abs braking in my 2003 chevy Monte Carlo I was 2 cars lengths away from a Ford bronka for whom I rearended, I was looking to turn in qt parking lot then I looked back and the cars ahead had stopped. I hit the breaks expecting to be able to avoid the contact but the breaks just locked up and the air bag did not deploy thank god for seatbelts. As the movement of the car was sliding forward and I had my foot pumping to slow but every time I touch the pedal it would just lock up. I tried this twice and them I just braced for the hit when we hit my foot was jammed back on the break now I have a broken foot.
