The insured, George, parked his described vehicle in the garage. A can of paint fell on the hood, damaging it. Is this considered a loss caused by Collision as defined by his State Farm 9800A policy?
No, this is not a loss caused by collision as it was damage caused by a falling object which would be considered Comprehensive.
The definition of loss can have jurisdictional differences. Using 9800A as the applicable policy, a loss includes a reduction in the value of any covered vehicle after it has been repaired, as compared to its value before it was damaged. Is this a true statement?
