Damn man talk about bad luck. The shop not taking responsibility for the theft is just insult to injury. Time to get a lawyer.

Local Nissan saying they aren't taking responsibility for your vehicle? Maybe they shouldn't have kept it in the first place if they aren't going to take responsibility for what's going to happen. You should probably throw a big fit and talk to the manager, if not time to talk to a lawyer seriously. They have insurance for those type of incidents I'm sure.

is this the dealership, or a shop they recommended? throw a fit in the sales area where customers are, that should nudge them to help you more.

My Z got into an accident too. Crazy thing about it...2 accidents within 2 months. Rear-ended both times. 1st was at complete stop in a 4-way. the dude wasn't paying attention. Police report showed he was reaching for his cell phone. 2nd time... i was just past the top of the overpass at an intersection. If you're from texas, its at hwy 6 n/b before crossing 290. Guy was accelerating up the hill and stopped too late. sux too, b/c my z was out 3 weeks. just got it back this past thanksgiving week. over 6k worth of damage.

damn rudy, gilbert had told me about your wreck a while back, but seeing those pictures after the break in just tops the cake. Nissan should cover that **** if not I would lawyer up. I am very surprised they didnt total it in the first place, I probably would have just told them to total it because the z will never be the same. I would have sold you my indash to you because I had the same one but I just sold it on friday. Good luck with everything bro.

Why would they break the rear window when you still can't reach the lock? That doesn't seem right.

^^^lol...that's the first thing to cross my mind...maybe to make it look like an actual theft...since he(OP) felt it might be an inside job, I agree with him on that...

Ya, it's been a bad month for my car!!! I am stating to cool down about it. Once I get it back (IF I get it back) I won't have it for too much longer. Gonna move on to something else... As, for the dealer!!!!!!

That's why I don't usually deal with dealer shops. I try to deal with shops I know people at. I thought you usually take it to Jacks place or that other one?

They were not gonna total it out before. I hope now with the theft that maybe that will change?? Gotta call my insurance today, cause I spoke to the dealer again and they aint gonna cover anything... So, I gotta make another claim!

If it's on their lot they are responsible, they might not want to be, but they are. Your insurance will go after them for it I am sure..

that is some shady **** man, sucks to be kicked when you're down already. if your car is not totaled out I would not allow that body shop to work on it - f' them, if they aren't going to take responsibility for the theft on their own lot then they shouldn't get your business for the repair work.

Most shops will tell you they are not responsible, but they are if it's parked on their lot. You need to get a lawyer and discuss it with them. Or even discuss it with your insurance agent, they would probably tell you the same thing.

One of our guys had the same thing happen to him when his car was at a body shop, stole everything, and they gave him the same line of bs.
