Not sure why car wont start
Just got into an accident a couple days ago.... front in damage by the driver fender side.. the damage is not as severe as i thought no engine damage at all but the car just wont start any ideas on why that maybe.. is there a collision sensor???

This is extremely difficult to help diagnose without seeing the car. It's almost like me saying someone bumped my computer now it won't start, can you tell me why? As for a collision sensor, I have never heard of such a thing. did you check your battery connection, that is the only thing I can think of on that side that could maybe have jarred loose.

check your fuses and battery connection.
when you say car doesn't start, does it crank but no fire?
no crank?
light on dash lights up or no?
too many variables to consider, need more info.

scan it with a OBDII scanner and see if anything comes up, even a small crash like that is usually enough to set the air bags off if its hit at a certain angle. some crash sensor or whatnot might have been set off from it

I am not 100% on this, but I don't think the car will start if your front end collision sensor is damaged. You might want to check into that as well. Open up that hood and take a couple detailed pics for us. Take as many pics as you can and post them. A video of you trying to start it will also help.
