More details to this question:
My fiance, her daughter and myself were in an accident recently. Collision of approx 50 mph. The other vehicle was at fault. Our main airbags did not deploy. Only one airbag deployed, driver side beneath the steering wheel. There weren't any serous injuries. Would there still be a valid claim there?
Vehicle is a 2014 Ford fiesta.

Potentially, there could be a case. You and your passengers didn't have to experience severe injury to be entitled to recover from an insurance provider for your pain and suffering. If you have any soft tissue damage that requires treatment, you should be able to seek and obtain that treatment. And, as you were not the cause of the accident, you shouldn't have to pay for that treatment.
