Archer said the bear apparently used the door handle to get into the unlocked vehicle and knocked the vehicle into neutral.
"The bear put the car in neutral and it rolled back across the street into a spruce tree," Archer told KUSA-TV.
Deputies contacted Colorado Parks and Wildlife, which sent officers to safely release the uninjured bear from the vehicle.
Archer said his insurance won't cover his damaged seats or chewed-up gear shifter.
