Fortunately, In the United States at least, no one is held liable for acts of nature. It does not matter whether the tree fell from your yard, your neighbors yard or was blown in from from some national forest down the street or some other yard due to a natural occurrence.

In almost all cases in the U.S. barring some proven negligence, it is our own responsibility. The average homeowner is not expected to be an expert on trees.

With respect to your own home insurance, there would be no coverage for your un-insured vehicle. Homeowners insurance does not cover automobiles. That's what Auto Insurance is for.

AnswerIf your neighbor's tree is dead and they did not remove it, it may fall under their insurance. If it is living, then it would fall under your auto policy. If you don't have coverage, then you would have to cover the loss out of pocket.
