This is my first car ever, I have always drove a truck or SUV. I pulled up to the parking stop and when I went to leave it ripped my bumper off!! Somehow I snapped it back in place. It looks fine, but I was wonderng, does the insurance cover this under Collision or Comprehensive?

Just got to remember NOT to pull up so close...

There have been a few topics about this

I have done it too, though not as severely.

Up to and including the rare spelling of the word "bumper"!
