Answer 1

The repairman's comprehensive general liability policy will cover special damages.

Step-by-step explanation:

The repairman's comprehensive general liability policy will respond by covering only the special damages. Special damages are the specific, quantifiable losses that the injured party suffered directly as a result of the repairman's actions. Examples of special damages in this case could include the cost of repairing the faulty parts or any medical expenses incurred due to the faulty repairs.
