What happens when a bear gets locked in a car?

I don't believe the owner. I see a full soda bottle on the floor of the car and my guess would be that the car had other litter in it too. Don't know about his locks and alarms but that doesn't ring true either. Also, if a Mother bear is locked inside the car and the cubs are present like he stated, how is approaching the car with a fire extinguisher going to be a good solution?

Ya, something sounds a little fishy.

That seems like a defect. They said when the alarm goes off the doors lock and unlock. What is the point of an alarm if activating it, it give the criminal access?

Not a car but a true bear story. A friend in MN built an outhouse she (yes she) built the door to swing inward. Ever try to get a bear out of an outhouse with an inward swinging door........(hint: it doesn't end well)

I imagine the car would be totaled if this happens... When that happens and you are still paying for things it becomes a problem haha...

I guess you guys all saw the post a week or so ago where a bear ripped open the outside wall to get into a trailer. He smelled something real good insdie haha...

Start shopping for a good upholsterer. Better still, shop for a new car if insurance doesn't cover bear damage :-)
