Are DoorDings an American Pehenomenen?
I grew up and drove for 6 years in England and door dings where not something I ever worried about or got. Are American drivers just less considerate of other peoples property? Do drivers in other parts of the world have to worry about some ******* swinging their door into the parked car.

Yep, annoying.
I'm the same. I park so far away you wouldn't believe it. This one mall I go to a couple times a year, they got parking for like the year 2100 or something, so I park so far out there. It's so far of a walk you would not believe it. Takes over 10 minutes no exaggeration.
It's a bit scary walking out there to be honest as no one is around.

Then I would run back to my C
I would love it out there. Empty, huge parking lot. Free driving practice?

funny thread. This is just the reason I pulled the trigger on the 400$ ding warranty. Any ding, smaller than a playing card is covered, no deductible, no nothing, just bring it in and it is repaired free. Sort of mental comfort.

Well the worst happened to me today. I went to get my car washed after letting it be covered in salt for the past month. When it came out of the wash, I saw right way a scratch along the side. I got closer, and the scratch is huge, along the passenger door and continues onto the front panel. I asked the guy if it could have been from the car wash and he said he highly doubts it. I was still unsure so I brought it next door to the MB body shop. The guy looked at it and said it's not just a scratch but it's dented in. I looked from another angle and he was right. He said he doesn't think it was from the wash because of the position of the dent/scratch, which made sense. It might have happened at some point in the past 3 or 4 weeks. The guy quoted me at $900 to $1,100. Any suggestions? It's quite noticiable. I was thinking about calling my insurance, but not sure if it's cheaper to just pay it myself (deductible is $500). I'mreally upset because I've only had the car for about 5 months and it was in perfect condition.
