Usually if the airbags have been deployed in an accident, the car is "totaled". The expense is just too great to replace the airbags and their related sensors and all the wiring inside the steering column and dashboard.

On the flip side, IF the car can be repaired satisfactorily, the amount of time needed to get the parts depends upon the manufacturer itself, and IF they actually make replacement parts or IF they are in stock.

How long do airbags take to inflate?

Airbags typically take about 20 to 30 milliseconds to fully inflate after a collision is detected. This rapid deployment is crucial for providing timely protection to occupants during an accident. The speed of inflation helps reduce the risk of injury by cushioning the impact between the occupants and the vehicle's interior.

Why didn't your airbags deploy?

It depends on your vehicle. Majority of cars made after 2005 are equipped with the new advanced airbags or aka "3rd generation" airbags. Your car can actually take into effect how far you are from the steering wheel, if you're wearing your seat belt, how much you weigh, etc. and based on those fact decide during an accident if your airbag is needed. Although trust me, the car doesn't always make the right decision.

It depends. Were you at work when the accident occurred? And were you working to long because you were not allowed to take a break? If you were working to long and decided not to stop and take a break then it's you fault. If you were not at work on the clock when the accident happened than it's your fault.
