Answer 1

Since he was driving a company vehicle, the company will need to file a claim with their insurance to get the car repaired.  

Have they ever explained what would happen in a situation like this when he was hired?

I'm pretty sure the dealership will take care of this one.  

Answer 2

No doubt about it.  The dealer is responsible if B/F was working at the time and is an employee and not a contractor.  Don't let the dealer tell him that he must pay !

Answer 3

Since he was working at the time, the dealer's insurance should cover the damage, but he'll have to find another job.
