QuestionInsurance Question  My wife parked her car in the mall parking lot. The car was parked between 2 cars. When she returned, her car was damaged on the passenger side. The parking space on her right hand-side was not occupied when she returned. Will this be covered under the comprehensive or collision provisions of my insurance policy?

AnswerAuto Insurance Answer

It will depend upon the type of damage your vehicle sustained in the parking lot if it will be your comprehensive portion or collision portion of your physical damage coverage that will cover it.

If the car was hit by another vehicle or an object, such as a shopping car, then it would normally be your collision coverage that would cover the damage. You can make a claim with your insurance company and the claims adjuster should be able to make a definitive determination regarding which coverage the claim should go under. You will need to pay the deductible associated with that portion of your physical damage coverage for the car to then be repaired.
