Should I get my air bag inspected?

I noticed that Takata just got fined 1 billion for faulty air bags. I was checking mine and I am worried that it may be faulty, but I am not certain that it is original equipment or not as the car has had a few previous owners before me in the past. I am hoping to be part of the settlement as I did bump my knee against it once and i think it may have done some permanent damage as a result. I am making appointments with a psychiatrist, chiropractor, medical doctor, surgeon, physical therapist, radiologist and legal council who previously worked on the "O.J. Simpson didn't do it, but is still looking for who did" case to cover all the bases.

"The settlement includes a $25 million criminal penalty, while Takata will also pay $850 million in restitution to automakers who purchased its defective airbags. Another $125 million will go towards a compensation fund for those harmed by the malfunctioning bags. On top of the fatalities, at least 184 people were injured in the U.S. alone."

Not to make this political, but does this air bag look original to you and should I pursue my case? My friends claim it is "all in the bag" for me to win, but I'm just not so sure. I don't want to be looked at as a fellow who is a gold digger and just wants to sue for every little thing.
