Question:
I left my car at the car shop to get it fixed at 2 p.m. He told me to come back the next day to pick it up. I get a call the next morning and he leaves a voicemail saying "your car is bad luck, it got stolen." He said he LEFT MY KEYS IN THE CAR & left the door unlock along with all the other cars that were there. The "theif" took 1 of the trucks which also had a key inside and used it to ram through the gates. (The gates r sliding gates with a lock on it) They turned the camera up. (The camera was on the roof 30 feet in the air) Does anything sound suspicous?
I only have liability. I couldnt afford full coverage insurance becuase i lost my job and any extra money i have goes to the my baby. there is a sign that at the shop that says not responsible for theft or break ins.

Car totaled, what do I do next?
I'm sure a police report was already made by the car repair shop. Obtain a copy of the police report. It's within your right to do so as your vehicle was involved.How to locate the dmv (drivers licsense division of the houston texas branch of state government?
Obtain the information for the repair shop's commercial business liability policy, and file a claim with the shop's insurance company. Whether they will compensate you or not, remains to be seen. If the shop's insurance company refuses to compensate you and are unwilling to work with you, then it may be worthwhile at that time to obtain an attorney.
Gary S, in his answer stated "Even though you have liability insurance, contact your insurance company and report the theft. The agent will do all the dealing with the auto shop and their insurance."
I don't know where Gary S gets his information from, but it is incorrect.
Will your insurance premium go up if you are involved in accident but it is not your fault?
You did not purchase comprehensive insurance under your policy. Therefore, you are not entitled to assistance from your insurance company as you didn't pay for assistance on comprehensive claims.
Can we do our renewal online for our vehicle?
Your insurance company will only assist you in claims under the coverage you paid for...which, as you stated, is liability only. You get what you pay for. You paid for liability only and you will get assistance with liability only claims.
Good luck to you.
Driving with Forgotten License?
Sue them. It's there fault.sounds like an inside job if you ask me.
The car shop was negligent and they are financially responsible for your vehicle. Even though they have a sign that says not responsible for theft, they have to take reasonable care to safe guard your vehicle, which obviously they did not by leaving the keys accessible and the door unlocked. Even though you have liability insurance, contact your insurance company and report the theft. The agent will do all the dealing with the auto shop and their insurance. Good luck
License plate 7 letters aloud?
Don't worry about your insurance, and don't worry about suing yet. When you car is under the care of the repair shop, you are covered under their insurance. The signs that say anything different notwithstanding, they are only there to discourage people. You can NOT have your right to them taking reasonable precautions with your vehicle set aside by a sign.Were is a total free web page to find a person by using there license plate number?
So you tell them "No, it looks like you've had some bad luck. Are you going to give me a vehicle to use or should I rent one and bill you for that? And if the vehicle isn't found within 30 days, I guess we will talk about it's worth at that point."
How does no-fault auto insurance work and what states are no fault?
If they are not cooperative at that point, first file a police report, then contact who ever issues licenses to such businesses in your state, and also talk with an attorney.
Also, to turn the camera up they had to walk up to it, and would be on tape.

Forget the sign.it's their weak attempt to scare people, like you, into not pursuing the matter with them. It doesn't relieve them of their responsibility..You'll have to take them to court...that's your only option.
My car was broken into arrrrrrrr..?
Then the shop has their own liability insurance up to $1,000,000 dollars. Its your property in their shop and they had sign a contract ( your receipt or estimate is treated as a contract ) to repair your vehicle. First ask them for a police reports then take them to a small claim court, the fee is around $75.00 and you represent yourself in court ( watch Judge Judy ? ), in court make sure that you bring all the appropriate documents related to your vehicle, repair costs, even if the police found your car, aftermath repair costs, damage to the vehicle and tires etc..most of all, loss of income due to transportation, take pictures. And sue them for their unintended liability. And post the shop name on internet so I don't take my car overthere. Good luck!My car just got broken into, what type of items does insurance cover?
The dealership is responsible. You left the car in there care and custody. This is not a pair of sun glasses you left in the car where they can say it's not there problem. I would go on to blue book.com and get replacement value of the car. I would then speak to the owner of the dealership not the manager They left the keys in the car and doors unlocked I would sue them youwill win.. Good Luck
What can i use as proof of residency/ personal data?
When you left your car with this car shop and he left the keys in the car he did not use diligence with your property while it was in his possession. You just call your insurance agent and I am sure he willremove all your stress. Make a police report and also report this to your lending institution. If this winds up in court be assured that you will win. This is a blatant disregard for someones property especially when keys are left in a vehicle and not locked up in their shop regardless what his sign says. Good Luck!!
