2 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 10/22/2019

While driving, there is a random ding. No idiot lights come on this has been going on for over a month. Today I happened to look up and the passenger airbag light was flashing. As if stating there was someone in the seat. The only way to stop it is to have the passenger seat belt buckled while driving. This only happens while driving. It is very disturbing because I am not sure if I am in an accident if my passenger will be safe.

I was traveling about 75mph when a deer ran infront of me, I wasn't able to stop completely and hit the deer on my right front side of my vehicle. . The smell of smoke came from my vehicle and my "service airbags" indicator came on. . No airbags deployed. . I had my 6 year old son in the car with me!! my car isn't drivable due to the signal being on even though the airbags didn't deploy.
