You guys will not belive this: My 2007 G35 Sport was stolen

[alik]

It is official and confirmed, that my car was stolen last night at 7:15 PM (according to surveillances tapes) from the Willow Grove Infiniti Service center in PA.

Imagine that. I only saw this crap in movies.

Here is the story:

Some guy came into the dealership after 7pm, when service was closed but the sales team was still working. He was walking around browsing for a car. Nothing suspicious there.Then he went to the service garage, switched the main circuit to get the power on for the garage doors to open, got into my car and left.

I couldn't believe that. I only saw this in movies: Gone in 60 Seconds.

Now i have to wait 30 days, for Infiniti Insurance to take effect. Technically they have to pay off my car (which was leased) and give me a good deal on the new one.What sucks even more is that i had a lot of stuff in my car worth couple of grand at least, that I will have to claim through I guess their insurance.

Im just curious, what deal if any they will give me, being that it is 100% their negligence and their fault that my car was stolen from their OWN garage.

Man it sucks but see the bright side. you can have the 08 model. Don't go under that. It is now up to you and the dealership. Be smart.

im going to try.Is it true that they discontinued the Sport package on the 2008?

[zozoka1212]

There is the X with sport package. They reorganized everything.

Here is all the changes

You probably won't like the answer, but here's as much as I know:

Since the car was leased, it wasn't your property and thus, they don't owe you anything other than a new lease with terms AT LEAST as good as the prior lease. Don't expect them to bend over backwards to make sure you're rewarded for your troubles.

Here's the bad part.....

Since the car was not your property, and you willingly left it in their control on their property, then I'm fairly certain you'll take liability for the items in the car. Since you don't own the car, they are the ones technically at a loss, and therefore not accountable to you. Most mechanics, dealers, and service departments also claim no liability for personal property left in the vehicles.

With that said, they might work with you and try to smooth things out, which would be amazing. If they refuse though, I'd drop it because an attorney will cost triple what you're hoping to get from Infiniti. Hope it works out though, and definitely try to get an '08 out of them

If I had known it was that easy to steal one, I wouldn't be paying $450/month for mine!

Another bright side to this is that you won't have to declare the car a lemon now. Whoever stole it may actually have landed up with a lemon. Hopefully you can get some money for the items in the car. There is still a sports option for the '08's, they just are not calling it G35S - it's a package with the same changes.

just stop by the dealer ship today the X with sport package wont be out till around late october and alik im really sorry WOW is that massed up its going to take some time cause they most likely will see if they can recover the car

[adren77]

They really need to make a 6MT AWD

Well, now you can get into an 08 coupe....try to get a similar deal; make 'em feel like crap for your stuff that was stolen!

Let us know what happens!

[kidistight]

Move over Honda Accord, a much better car is getting stolen now. Dude I am sorry to hear about your car, a business partner of mines has a pretty old car but he still puts the club on his steering wheel. You might want to consider doing that also. When I get my Infiniti I am going to get all types of alarms on it, preferably one that will shut down the car if I am not the one starting it. For the most part I will throw that out and just get the club also it is cheaper and a proven deterant to criminals.

[alik]

I never liked coupes period. Not my style. But I might as well get the 08 G35. Trust me, i will make them feel worse than ****. Cause i lost about $2k worth of stuff in my car. If they will give me attitude ot what not, I will just get a lawyer and i will make sure that their name willbe in every single newspaper etc...

Im hoping to get even a better deal out of them then before. but again, I will have to wait and see how they will act and go about this situation.

But, i will keep you guys posted.

[alik]

Thanks man, but my car was stolen from their own garage. even if i had a club, they would not be putting it on at night.

I only saw this **** in movie: "Gone in 60 Seconds" lol

[ugaexploder]

regardless if it is a lease or not they screwed up. just cause it's a lease doesn't mean you don't treat it like it's your own car, they should work something out with you because it was just pure retardedness to let someone do that. do you not have lo-jack installed on your car? it would've been found by now if it was i guess

[alik]

they deff. screwed up BIG time. And i agree, they should do something about it, if they dont want to f*** up their relationship with customers.

Its a lease car, there is no point in installing a low jack. To tell you the truth, i would have never even though that soemthing like this may happen.

[etschell]

not to be a d!ck, its happened to me that stuff has been stolen from my car (car wash etc). but from now on when taking it into the shop - id just remove items of value if possible.

[zozoka1212]

But there are some what you can't remove from the car. Like built in things.Mods and other goodies.

zozo

[alik]

listen, from now on, i will do just that. But again, i would have never imagined that this would happen.

[Gimli G35]

sorry about what happened man , id never think it would happen AT THE Dealers ...

[audtatious]

Hopefully they have given you a nice loaner to use for the "30 day wait" you mentioned.....

[c_anderson117]

Wow, never thought this would happen at Willow Grove. actually I never thought this would happen anywhere. they're definitely at fault, and make sure you let them know that.

[alik]

well i had an 06 g35x, i just kept it fort now. I am going to Moscow for two weeks starting next week, so i will be gone most of September, so that part doesnt bother me =)But they better give me a new one when i get back, cause the 30 days will be up=)

[alik]

thanks man. i will deff try to do that
