My wife was driving on a straight road with cruise control set at 60 mph when she saw a deer in the road - she swerved and braked hitting the deer in the drivers headlight area above drivers front tire and both driver side doors. The air bag did not deploy and the seat belt did not lock in place and hold her in place.

This Sonic sun visors will not pull out to extend and also have no pull-out extensions. People driving North in the in the P.M. or South in the a.M. have to drive with one hand only in order to block the sun with their left hand. There is probably a higher incident of accidents at these times of day involving Sonics. I never would have bought this car if I realized that the visors did not pull out.
