My car was parked at a shopping mall and got damaged by another car. It seems like the dent and scratch are from door to door contact or by a shopping cart cause it was really windy (upto 46 mph wind). Would this be covered by comprehensive or collision?

It would be collision coverage. As it covers damage to your car when your car hits, or is hit by, another vehicle, or other object. Pays to fix your vehicle less the deductible you choose.
