Collision Coverage Under a Personal Auto Policy

Our insured was driving his car down the highway when a tire on the car shredded. Parts of the tire broke the muffler system and dented the wheel well. The insurer wants to cover the damage under the collision coverage, but we feel that other than collision coverage is more proper. Your thoughts on this claim will be appreciated.
