Popup rollbars deployed

I took a ramp to my parking garage way too fast yesterday and hit an icy patch. Fortunately my right rear wheel hit a low curb and nothing else got damaged. However, the impact caused my rollbars to deploy. I have an '04 C4S cab with a hardtop.

I followed the instructions in my owners manual and pushed the rollbars back in. Since none of the warning lights came on, my question is: should anything have to be checked? The car runs great, and I already ordered a replacement wheel (these were my winter rims with snow tires from Tirerack, so the 18x10 only cost $227).

It could have been much worse! :oops:

The rollbars should be fine. There is a small slot that lets you manually activate them for testing - then they tell you to push them back down to reset them. But it sounds like you just tested them... ;)

If the impact was bad enough for the rollbar to deploy, I'd definitely have the tracking checked.

Cheers,

Uwe
