My condominiums are being painted, so there have been a bunch of workers in my complex over the last couple of days. For some reason this morning they decided to park next to me (which is covered parking, so it's someone's spot, and they shouldn't be there). Who ever was sitting in the back seat (drivers side) whipped open their door and put a small dent on the passenger side of my car (just in front of the door handle). AAAARRRGGGHHHHH!!! I should probably refrain from mentioning what nationality they were. I'll just say that they didn't speak English (I'll probably get flamed for that comment, oh well). Needless to say, my property management company is going to get an ear full. Damn I need a garage.

Remember a door can cause a dent regardless of the nationality or language the door opener speaks.Yes believe it or not an American born English speaking Caucasian can even do it. All one has to be is careless, indifferent or spiteful.

That sucks, but as long as the paint isn't damaged, a place like dent wizards can repair it for a reasonable price.

Please don't misinterprete my statement regarding nationality. I realize anybody can have a lack of respect for other peoples property. I was just pointing out the fact, that 9 out of 10 times when something happens here in the sunny state of Arizona, it's the same people. It may not be PC, but it's the truth.

Regarding Dent Wizards, thanks, I am having an estimate done later this afternoon.

I am in Az also but if I was you after getting the estimate tell the people in charge of the complex or land lord or whoever and tell them they need to pay for it to get fixed. Since you will already have an estimate in hand just have them cut a check for the repair and remember to park as close to the pole next to you as possible or find a different spot. Also it you have garages in the complex get one of those as well.
