auto-park valet, Vehicle Damage?

That thing is probably covered in sensors monitoring every conceivable angle, at least I hope it is. So hopefully if the car was to low, or to tall, or wide, or whatever, it would warn you and/ or just not do anything.

As far as damage to the car is concerned the parts in question just press against the insides of the tires, they probably never even touch the wheels themselves but either way at least it's on the inside so it's somewhat unimportant.

My real concern would be later on down the road when everything is dirty, neglected, and they start slacking on maintenance. I'm not sure what would happen if (when?) the machine breaks, but of course that would depend on what breaks and how severely of course.
But that thing is probably severely overbuilt and I would expect pretty durable. It would be a huge liability if it were to break, but for that same reason I expect you'll be seeing those garages out of order regularly.
