OH my God.
I hope you will be ok. I had a similar expierence with airbags in a C Class Merc. Your ears are ringing like shit right. Sorry to hear about it. We will support you. I assume you have insurance so don't worry to much. Hope all goes well very soon.

Wow, I am glad to hear you’re not too badly hurt, but those air bags put out a lot of force. I sounds like our air bags maybe just a little too sensitive. Let us know what the dealer or the mechanics have to say about this.

Did the front and side airbags go off? If so, that sucks.
Sorry again to hear about your misfortune.

Also, if you hit something that made the windscreen break, how could there be no scratches? Not trying to criticize, I am just having trouble envisioning this. As long as you emerged unscatched, that is what is important.

Were you or your passanger not wearing a seatbelt ? (makes it more likely they will pop )
Car wouldnt start because the positive battery terminal gets cut by a small explosive charge when car is in a accident

Maybe you hit harder than you thought and the damage is hidden behind the plastic part of the bumper. Often people cannot see the damage because the plastic part seems fine, but the real damage is in the metal behind it.

I'm with Fleet on that one. The E90 has dual stage deploying airbags. Maybe it got triggered with only 50% of the force it should have, because it was a minor but according to the cpu of the car enough of an accident to be deployed but at only a 50% deployment force. CPU's are clever things.
