Nashville is known for its unpredictable weather, and while the summer sun is great for outdoor concerts, it can also bring severe thunderstorms with damaging hail. If your car has fallen victim to a recent hailstorm, don’t despair. This guide will walk you through the steps of dealing with hail damage, from assessment to repair, so you can get back on the road with confidence.

Assessing Hail Damage: What to Look For:

Hail damage can range from minor dings and dents to cracked windshields and broken lights. Here are some signs to look for:

• Dents on the Roof, Hood, and Trunk: The horizontal surfaces of your car are most vulnerable to hail damage.
• Chipped or Cracked Paint: Hailstones can chip or crack your car’s paint, leaving it exposed to rust and corrosion.
• Broken or Shattered Glass: Windshields, windows, and sunroofs can be damaged by large hailstones.
• Damaged Headlights and Taillights: Hail can crack or shatter lights, impairing visibility and safety.

Don’t Delay: Address Hail Damage Promptly:

Even minor hail damage can worsen over time if left untreated. It’s essential to get your car inspected by a qualified professional as soon as possible.

If you have comprehensive auto insurance, it typically covers hail damage. Here’s how to file a claim:

1. Contact Your Insurance Agent: Report the damage and provide them with details about the hailstorm.
