I am unaware of a specific recall for the airbags on the 2006 Saturn Ion, but there may be one. If you were wearing yrou seat belt than you you may have a defective equipment or defective desing claim agisn tGM. If you had work doen to the front end or sterring column of the car, you may have claim agsint that repar shop. If someon else disabled your froint air bags, (common in many minor underdash repairs) you may have claim agains that party. Sometimes when you have stereo equipment installed, they forget to reconnect your air bag.
I am very sorry to hear of yrou injuries. Hopefully you are recovering well. If you feel that your injuries would have been less had the air bag deployed, you should meet, in person, with a personal injury attorney in your area. Many offer a free or low cost initial consultation.
In the mean, you may be able to go online and see if this vehicle had any safety notices or recalls
Good luck
