Check your flex pass for activity as well. Maybe he screwed up and went into the express lane or across a bridge

Other than checking cameras, asking tow yards/scrap yards, talking to police, and anything else that may be traceable I'm not too sure what else you could do. Just keep on the police after you filed a report and hopefully they come up with something.

Theres also a big auction house in Hayward I guess. May give them a call or a heads up. Not sure if carmax would be able to find out about a stolen car status. I'd give them a heads up as well if possible.

Good luck with everything.

You misinterpret what I said, if they have the ability to replicate/hack the RFID/FOB of your key without having your key, they could steal a lot more car for the same amount of work. But life isn't 'Gone in 60 Seconds' with Nicolas Cage.

Low buck part out, they can easily snag a few thousand bucks selling panels, seats, stereo, powertrain, suspension etc. for a day or two of work. Steal and part out a car or two a week probably banks more than I do, for a time.

Damn man I'm really sorry. Sounds like they either duplicated your key or used a tow truck.

Maybe it was impounded by mistake? have you checked local tow yards?

Yeah, did you check with your complex's management? At the very least get the info for whoever does the towing for them (I'm sure there are fire lanes and such inside where they can/will tow people for parking where not permitted). Then contact the towing company (even if the complex management doesn't believe they issued a tow call).

Already talked to the two local towing companies (including the one that the complex contracts out to) and no dice. Complex management has no idea and said they wouldn't tow from the covered spots given how hard it is to get a tow truck in there (thin garage, so hard to maneuver and low ceiling).

Thanks for the suggestions though!

Sorry to hear that I will keep a look out.

I just checked craigslst and saw this

Banged up red door posted 4 hours ago

Red door with the VIN showing in one picture.

Sorry did OP post a VIN I missed?

I'd expect to see a flurry of FRS parts on FB marketplace. and the FRS FB groups.

No, I was just drawing OP's attention to the VIN so they could check it for themselves.

that ad was posted 17 days ago so i don't think it's OPs..

Yep it is almost "impossible" to do now even with all the scares of the internet talking about code readers and magic gimmicks that override the chip. People with the equipment to defeat chips are not looking for the quick couple of thousand buck turn over our cars would get them. Just not worth the risk.


Really odd that they would target one in a gated parking garage where there is a high probability of cameras. Usually the hook up and run guys hit ones on the street where there is less chance of being noticed.

UPDATE: Car has NOT been found yet, but the credit card I had in my car is showing fraudulent charges in San Jose, so please please please keep looking! This d-bag is still driving around locally!

I would inform the police so they can investigate camera footage and put a face on this guy/girl. I would leave the card open so you can track their whereabouts. I wouldn't leave your CC in the car anymore... They should reverse the charges as well. My girlfriend had her amex card stolen and they reversed around 2k worth of charges and issued her a new card within 24 hours.
