rec.autos.makers.jeep+willys, posted by "Matt Macchiarolo" <matt@nospamplease.com>: Strangely enough, this actually happened to a friend of mine, in daylight. He saw the deer near the road and stopped, and the deer (a buck with an impressive rack) ran at high speed into the side of the front fender, rolled across the hood, fell off the other side, got up and took off. No apparent damage to the deer (at least, he couldn't find it or any sign of blood), but the damage to the car was almost $2k. (No airbag deployment.) Deer seem to be about as stupid as horses. >If what I guess you are blathering about is right, then sure, if the hammer >was big enough, but I don't have an airbag switch.

Re: Air Bags
But in the case of this particular Sunfire, the article states the deer's
rear legs made contact with the vehicle first. I doubt he backed into it hard enough to deploy the airbags!
