If a tree branch falls on my car, who is responsible for repairing it?

the car was parked in front of my house and the branch is near the sidewalk. Additional Details I thought maybe the city is responsible, I have asked them before to fix my sidewalk because of it and now this. maybe it is time for the tree to go

If the tree was in an unhealthy condition - the city would pay for it.
Otherwise, you can use comprehensive coverage on your auto insurance to fix the damages. |

The tree is. Either it pays, or get a chainsaw. |

Face it...the city is not going to pay for it. It's your car, and you parked it under the tree...IN FRONT OF YOUR HOUSE. It'll be you, or MAYBE your insurance. |

Ummm, just out of curiosity, who do you think should be responsible for repairing your car in that situation? |

god is if it's was an act or god. or nature is if it was an act of nature. if it was you're car then you pay for it if it was someone else's car then they pay for it. unless you cut the branch or you paid someone to cut the branch then either you or the person who cut the branch might have to pay for it. |

The neighbour & any witnesses |

Normally I would ask any witnesses, and if they follow you, you can probably tell the repairer that it was not your fault... then get it fixed for free. |
