Angry another dent

Grrrr! after the big one I got fixed last week I got another dent It is like if my X5 was attracting dents. I had a Chrysler before the BMW and never got any dent for the 3 years I owned it. Do you guys experience the same problem with dents on your X5? It is like if some people where just doing that on purpose. I am going to have to get the dent specialist to come back again and fix this one. May be he has some kind of 'Frequent Denter' program

Ohhh the old FDP...was that an aftermarket purchase? Does that require a punch card like at Subway? Five dents and the sixth fix is free? Where's this dent and how big? Where are you parking....underneath a new sky scraper construction zone? Just kidding... good luck getting this one fixed.

I'm getting really fed up... No matter where I park, my car manages to get scratched. Sometimes it's my fault, though. A few examples:
-The other night we had some huge storms (some of you might have heard about them on the news, they were bad.. Some deaths, and 14 people missing)... It was windy.. We have a big tree in our front yard and some large branches blew into the car and scratched it.
-The other day at the mall, I found a small dent on the rear driver's side door
-The other day I was backing up and I backed into the corner of a foundation and gouged my bumper.
-Some dumb-a$$ freshmen decided to try golfing in the parking lot. No more explanation is needed.
I feel your pain!

Yup, everytime I go to the mall I am going to put my bike in the trunk, park way back in the country side and use the bike to do the remaining five miles to the mall

Temporarily to get around this problem I left the car in California so the Fiat drivers in Poland wouldn't dent the X. But the airfare to use the car was killin me

I feel your pain.

I had six small dings fixed about a month ago (purchased the X at the end of May), and a week later got another one!

And I am so careful where I park.

Smells of maliciousness.
