My first accident - airbag didn't deploy

I recently got into an accident a little over a week ago. My front bumper hit the rear bumper of a Toyota Highlander. I was probably going 45mph+. Was my airbag suppose to deploy? If not how fast or hard of an impact does it need to make it deploy?

Should I make sure to tell the body shop to reset the airbag or they do that automatically.

Airbags will deploy if they need to. I wouldn't worry about it.

i thought that anything over 35 mph, the airbag would deploy. Maybe it just didnt hit the right part for it to deploy the airbag?

SRS determined airbags weren't needed for the crash. There's nothing to reset if they're not deployed.
