Hi,
I was at someone else's house and backed into their garage door. I put on the break just in time, but the garage door got a slight bent, which is almost unnoticeable. The door opens and closes without a problem.
The owner knows that he can't ask me to replace it, because the damage is so minimal, but wants me to do something about the bent, because it supposedly could cause overload on the motor of the opener and shorten the life.
Other than having an expert come and check for the integrity of the whole system, I don't see how I can satisfy this guy, because, again, the bent is so minimal.
Should I just let my car insurance company take care of this? I understand that liability insurance would cover this.
I would appreciate your insight and/or similar experience.
