Can a Car Be Damaged by Hail?

[LucasFitz]

Hail can damage a car. If the hailstones are very large, they may dent the car significantly. Smaller hailstones may not cause damage or only result in minor dents. If a car is damaged by hail, you can file a claim with your insurance company. Damage to car glass caused by hail is typically covered under auto insurance policies, and compensation varies depending on the vehicle type and circumstances. After hail damage occurs, report it to your insurance company as soon as possible. Wait for an insurance adjuster to inspect the damage, then take the car to a repair center for assessment.
