He said that you would have to prove that they were negligent and did not exercise reasonable care for it to be under their insurance and not yours.
The example he gave was if a tree from your property fell on your neighbor's garage. If the tree was alive & healthy, it would be your neighbor's responsibility. If the tree was dead, it would be the tree owners responsibility.

But what happens in another act of God, like this?
I'm sure someone knew a storm was brewing... Why wouldn't you put all the cars in the service garage? Or something to that effect?
I still think THEY should be paying for it...
Also, go to a PDR guy... And ASK how much they'd charge to take the dents out. 2 years ago before I bought my first Maxima, I was going to buy a brand new Salvage Title car that had hail damage, I went to a PDR guy, he said 2 days, $400-600 total... You essentially rent him out... The dealerships aren't paying more than $200-300 for a PDR guy to come pop dents out of their cars per day.
And it's a good way to keep it off CarFax
