Hello, I purchased a brand new fiat that had some hail damage on the hood. The dealership gave me a discount for the thirteen pings on it, but its white so hard to see. My neighbor was getting a roof done today and the workers backed their trailer into it while I was out of town. I returned today and was told by my neighbor and the hood is now lifted and crinkled, lights smashed, bumper cracked...etc
I researched and found that dealerships receive money from the insurance and thats how they were able to give me a discount (didn't know that). So am I now up the creek if I file a claim since the hood was bought at some point in time from some insurance company. I decided to buy a carfax to see if it was reported and it says 100% guaranteed to not have hail or any issues.
Will my insurance company know about it if I file a claim? Especially if carfax didn't even know about it. Also, is this insurance freud (seems like it would be)?
