Travelling at around 60kph, we crashed to a concrete road divider detroying the whole front section of our Mazda3. We bruised our shoulder cos of the seat belts which were fine but since the air bags did not open, we slammed our faces to the wheel and dashboard. I had stitches inside my mouth. The passenger bruised her throat, broke 4 of her back teeth and had her chin split open.
Representatives of Mazda and Ford Philippines met with us 11 days after we reported the crash and told us we weren't moving fast enough at impact to deploy those air bags.
Here's a photo of our crash:

so while mazda were telling you that the speed wasn't enough, did they mention that they sell a buff and polish, only available at mazda. your slight scratch should buff right out. you'll be ok tiger.
(please note the above post was completely sarcastic and mazda do not really sell polish. its a wax!)
