I guess it depends on the damage. I don't know what I should do. I find out Monday.

I have hit 2 deer with my 07....actually they both hit me (separate events). Repaired both times. Just an FYI, have the shop check the headlight assemblies very carefully...take lots of pics. My headlight was not replaced b/c looked like no damage (damage near but not at headlight). About one month later that headlight failed....moisture inside/etc. Price at Acura was around $1000. Took it back to the shop that did the work and the manager resubmitted the headlight replacement with insurance and they covered it. My 07 is just below 200,000 miles and still holding on. Good luck.

This was me about 2.5 months ago. Hit a smaller deer going 70. $1100 in parts and labor.

Wow...
Sorry to hear.


I'm glad deer and animal strikes are so rare here on the coast.
