Mazda 3 help! *pictures*?
I just got into a pretty bad accident last night with my brand new 2008 Mazda 3. I went to the mazda website and it said that all these things come standard in my car,
Advanced dual front air bags, side-impact air curtains with
third-row coverage, and front-seat mounted side-impact air bags
Side-impact door beams – front and rear
Collapsible steering column (following air bag deployment)
And not one airbag went off!
My accident was pretty bad ( see pictures)
These are pictures of my car a few minutes after my accident when the car was taken to a junk yard.
I am thinking about sueing mazda.
How much could i possibly get for this case? Also what are the steps i would need to take to get this rolling?
Do you think it's worth it?

In short - you can't get a suit going with Mazda.
Airbags will deploy when there's a front or rear collision, or if there's a side collision where the sensors detect sufficient force to deploy. These are designed through front and offset-front accident modeling.
Your accident is clearly a side-impact that did not hit, nor deploy ANY sensors in the front or rear section of your car. If you look closely at your pictures, the side impact bars in your doors DID in fact, prevent a serious ingress into the passenger compartment. One can only imagine what would have happened to an older car that lacked the reinforcements in the doors.
Rather than seeking damages for a properly designed car, you should be thanking Mazda for engineering proper safety equipment into your car to prevent fatalities, even with a solid side-impact. You were driving a compact car that, 15 years ago, would have meant serious occupant injury from a similar accident!
