Rented property, disabled vehicle, threatening to tow my car?
I got a letter today the 10th saying i have until the 15th to move my vehicle that doesn't work or they'll tow it at my expense. It is their rental property and they had some conversation with the home owner's association so I'm assuming they have the right to tow it off their property, but they say they're taking it to a junk yard. Can they take it there? Doesnt it have to go to impound or something? They have no way of knowing that the vehicle isn't in working condition, although the front end is smashed because i wrecked it. If I move it to the street, will it be considered public property and can i circumvent that. Can I charge them with anything if they remove my property from their property? what's my best course of action on this?

They have notified you, so yes they can, yes they will. Your best course of action, get the car repaired, have it moved to storage area, sell it (to someone or to the junk yard yourself), but if you want to keep it, get the car moved..

Why not just have it towed to the garage and fix it?

If you two it to the street they will call it in as abandoned and tow it away, AND issue you a citation.

As far as where it gets towed, the tow truck company takes it to their yard and keep it until you pay for the towing and storage fee. The storage fee is set by each city, from 150-200 a day. They have to give you 30 days to pick it up before they junk it.

If you move it to the street and it looks like it won't run, it will definately be towed to an impound and you will have to pay.
If they tow it off their property, where are they supposed to take it - a repair shop. If the front end is smashed, can you drive it? Can the messed up front end be seen from the street? Why haven't you gotten it fixed or out of sight?


Blue October
is it insured and registered up to date?
if no to either than they cannot accept it on their property due to liability. it needs to be removed.

now i will also tell you if you move it to the street...you can only park in one spot for 72 hours without being towed...so you would have to move it every 72 hours.

move it to someone's house or garage or backyard...or sell it...there are tow companies that will pay you for your vehicle if you have the pink. here in san diego Economy Tow will pay you several hundred dollars in exchange for the pink.

good luck :)

NO , you cannot charge them if you have been notified to move it AND they can charge you for the towing . ( you have left a junker on THEIR property, not your property - you renter ! )
And impound is when you are towed off public streets ( with very steep charges to get it back .)
If you can't afford the repair you won't be able to afford the towing or impound fees .

Call a recycler to tow it and they will give you some $$ for the metal value .

Because the car is'nt running,then yes,the landlord has the right to have it towed. If they tow it,then they will pay the towing bill,then take you to court,to repay them!. It will cost you a certain amount of money to get it back,if it's towed,and most tow yards charge by the day. If you park the car on the street,then eventually,the police will notice,that the car has not been moved for a certain amount of time,and then you will be issued a "Citation". You will then have at least 15-30 days to move it again.
If the car is not running,and you can't repair it at the moment,then you can either sell it to someone,and let them fix it,or take it to the junk yard to get some bucks from it. They will pay you by the "Ton",and the amount is usually no more than $100.00

does your city or town have a junk vehicle ordinance,if so yes they can tow it.also are the tags and plates current.if not by-by- car.if your not going to fix it take it to the junk yard yourself and get the money out of it.


mister ed
ryan if your read you lease agreement somewhere in it will have a statement about unsightly or undrivable vehicles and what will happen to them. if you move it off there property you will be ok with the rental office -- but could run afoul with the local traffic laws about unserviceable vehicles parked on city streets

i would say you are between a rock and a hard place == suggest within 4.5 days you find some private property to park the car on until you can decide what to do with.


yoda the twentysecond
How about fixing your car? Or towing it to the wrecking yard yourself if it isn't worth fixing? You shouldn't leave an eyesore in your neighborhood.

They can't remove your personal property off their property (that's theft!). If you put the car on a public street, then they can call the police to give you notice to move your car. I don't think the HOA can even do anything (but I can be wrong here). The HOA will need to send a letter to the owner and then the owner can only start the eviction process (like give you a 3 day notice to remove your car or quit).

You might want to put the car in the garage or donate/sell it.

Regards

EDIT:
The owner cannot tow the tenants personal property off their land no more than he can come in and take the TV. If having a broken down car violates the lease or HOA, then the owner will need to evict the tenant.
