1 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 06/11/2012

I was traveling to my new home when I realized the car in front of me was completely stopped to make a left hand turn. I slammed on my brakes,but hit the car in front of me. My air bags did not deploy. I am concerned because the crash caused 4 fractures in my right ankle and foot. Had the airbags deployed, would they have held me back in my seat and lessoned the crash impact on my foot/ankle?.
