I'm going to agree with SB here. At best, I would say you have an insurance claim. This is just another unfortunate example that one can in fact induce damage with machines aside from just the rotary.
Good Luck and let us know how it turns out.

What really sucks is there isn't any warning when this is about to happen. You go from happy to sad immediately. Hence the need to be really careful.
Man, I'm sorry about your new car, but I can't get behind the idea of trying to make the dealer pay for something you did.
