This morning on my way to work I came upon some deer crossing the road with enough time to stop...or so I thought! I slammed on the brakes and the Nitro's brains cut out. The dash went dark, the raido went out, the brakes didn't work, and the deer hit the front driver's headlight and quarter panel. This hit was enough apparently to kick it back on as the dash came back on, the abs kicked in on the driver's side (had the abs flashed yesterday at the dealer) locked up the passenger side and pulled me into a ditch and subsequently into a mailbox. This mailbox was the beefiest thing I have seen as it creased the hood, tore off the passenger side mirror, put a hole, yes a hole, in the windshield and then proceeded to scratch down the side of the vehicle and dent the rear passenger door. The deer broke the plastic fenders on both sides and dented the rear driver's door.
I took it to the dealer this morning and they are saying that there are no trouble codes, no abs codes, nothing so there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. I am afraid it will do it again and I will be stuck with the $1000 deductible or worse yet I will hurt someone if it happens in traffic. Any help, suggestions, comments or otherwise?
