Did you have any discussions with the shop on the air bag lifespan issue? As I recall, it didn't deploy during the accident, and it is at the end of the 15 year life cycle for the bag/sensors. Yet I am not sure that air bags really add that much safety over proper use of a seat/shoulder belt, at least when you start talking $1300 replacement costs. What did you decide on this?
