First time dropping my GTI off at the dealer for warranty work. 1 hour later there and a ton of severe weather and hail moved into the area. It rarely sees rain since I park it in the garage so I’m hoping she’s safe.
Not to alarm you, but the roof of my GTI did not fare well in a hail storm last summer. There is only one dent in the hood but more than a dozen on the roof.
Here is a picture that captures hail bouncing off my car:
If you zoom in, look at the bricks between the garage doors at the house on the left, across the street. Then pan down to my car and see the lump of ice bouncing in the air. You can see the splash right under it.
I just happened to be working at that house that day, which is farther away than I usually have to go. What luck!
