SAMPLE ANSWER
Dear [Neighbor’s Name],
I hope you are doing well. I am writing to inform you about an issue involving my car. Recently, I discovered that my vehicle, parked in the lane in front of my house, has been damaged. There is a noticeable dent and several scratches on the driver’s side door.
I am quite concerned and disappointed as this damage affects both the appearance and value of my car. I understand that accidents can happen, and I hope we can resolve this matter promptly.
Could you please contact me so we can discuss the best way to address this? It would be helpful if you could report the incident to your insurance company and arrange for an assessment of the damage. I would appreciate it if you could cover the repair costs or work with your insurance to ensure the necessary repairs are made.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
