i have a 96....wats the worse that can happen? NYC sucks!

 

you mean you have (current) or you had (was stolen) ?

 

stolen this morning

 

Did you have full coverage insurance?

 

No Liability Only.....wats The Worse They Can Do?

 

um....you'll never see your car again?

the worst that can happen is that they'll total it and strip the good parts and leave it in an alley, and you'll have to pay for towing costs, and repair costs, if you keep the car....i'd say always get at least comprehensive, so at least you're covered with theft.

 

Yeah you're screwed. It's very unlikely that it will even be worth fixing so basically you'll have to buy a new car out of pocket. Sorry to hear it man...that really sucks.

 

DAM ....I REALLY DON'T LIKE REALITY//LOL wow my car look too good,

 

WTF, doesn't it have a factory alarm and engine disabler?

 

1999 and up

 

If a thief wants your car it doesn't matter what type pf alarm you have, unless you hear your siren or your pager pages you and you react, an alarm is worthless. Factory alarm?? A car thief wouldn't be a car thief if he didn't know how to bypass it. I'm just saying if a thief really wants your car they will get it, even with gps alarms theives just throw a lead blanket on it to disrupt the signal. Some thieves even use flatbed tow trucks to steal vehicles!!! And word to the wise for all maximas in NY ;foreign cars are stolen almost more than anything else, if you don't have an alarm get one and keep on eye on your rides.

 

retired lock smith here.it takes me 15 secs to open your door,the problem with some maxima owners they forget about leaving there stock alarm activated.try looking around the same area your in, its always a *** that lives around you.

 

Where did it get stolen in Brooklyn? Color? Plate No.? We can keep a look out on your car. Sorry to hear about that. I have liability too.

How much of a difference between liability and comprehensive coverage? What area do comprehensive coverage cover that liability don't?

 

Comprehensive where I am from covers broken windshields, malicious damage, eg. car being keyed. Not sure if theft is under comprehensive or not?

 

sorry to hear the bad news. I hope it makes it way back to you in a decent piece.

what had you done to it?auto or 5 speed?

 

Don't the chipped keys make it damn near impossible to steal a 99+ max? I have no clue how you would start the car w/o the key, any part time car thieves want to enlighten me?

 

look around your neighboorhood, and also around junk yards, or the bad part of towns. Most likely it was your neighbor.

 

That sucks man. I hope all's well in the end.

 

well its a 96 with about 63k and she is all black ....the car is mint...leather bose gle..it is stock ...it was stolen by 141 street and 115th ave.....dam i am no even finished paying for it yet! the sits on 2k 6 start 17's.....the plate i think is cgz-7384 ----oh yeah there was glass by the window- wat can that mean...will they strip it?

 

Dude your making payments on it still? I am sorry but when I had to make payments on it they required me to have full coverage when I had payments on it, or are you talkin gabout payments to your parents or somthing?

 

Sry to hear about your car, I hope nuttin horribly bad happens.

 

yeah if youre financing then the dealership would make you upgrade your insurance if you already had it...mine did i hpoe you did or youre paying for a car u dont have, hopefuly you get it back

 

That's too bad. Hope you can find it back

 

i dont want to give you too much hope but when my blazer was stolen it was taken for a joyride and found the next day only missing the valuables from the inside

 

the keys dont make any diffrence,its the way u activate your stock alarm.

 

the engine won't turn over without the chipped key i thought?

 

well who would steal a car monday morning for a joyride......i should just consider it stripped!!!

 

hmm.. man im gettin scared.. this is like the 3rd car in nyc within few months... form teh ORG.. i fear for my car.. i love her... i cant stand thought of loosing her...

 

Dam that suxs big time. My wifes 89 honda civic was stolen about 6 months ago. The a55h0le who stole it was just using it as his personal ride for about 3 weeks. One day he forgot to switch sides and the cops ran the plates. We got it back with just a broken ingition. Just before it was stolen I told my wife it would be stolen
(bad vibes), she says who would steal a 89' civic with 250k miles on it.

Good luck I hope you get your ride back.

 

Thank god my car sleeps inside. I gotta get outa brooklyn

 

WOW, my max is completely stock on the outside and inside . It even have the orange bumper lights and scratch mark all over to fend of predators. I'll keep a lookout for your max. Good luck..

 

from what i understand, liability doesnt cover the car if its stolen. that tru? hope u get ur car back.
my uncles car was stolen this past summer in chicago. he found it 2days later, parked next block over w/ the ignition column broken. cops said that theyve seen it happen that the person steals it, does some drug deals in it, then returns it. maybe ur car is now a drug car.

 

comprehensive will save your **** since it does cover theft, vandalism, acts of God, Bambi...

 

wow, i am never gonna move to NY for whtever reasons. you guys should hook up like 5 alarm systems or sumting

 

i got her back.........................i was crying! my first car......well this is wat happened someone found the insuracne card and call the insurance lady that called my dad....i drove up to my car and the other lady who called gave me my INS card and then said the car was parked in good condition monday all day...but tuesday morning she then saw the drunk missing with led spoiler, and the back windsheild gone and removed all the ....well these guys ripped everthing out leather seats, bose ac, broke ignition, air bags, the interior was ripped out...i will post pics soon!......i was able to start the car with a flathead screwdriver..the body of the car is still there....so i need 2 air bags, front and back seats, back and passenger window, all center piece (they left the cluster) trunk, and thats about it, i also realive none of the wires were cut! OH Yeah the engine and tran have 60k miles it i am gonna try my best to fix it......if u can help please give me a call 917-922-5197
this is also funny they took my 17's 6 star from 2k and they left 14's, 15',s 15's and my donout in the car!

 

Glad you got it back! I think you are very lucky that you got it back how you did! Unfortunately, it will still be very expensive to get it back to what it once was. You are probably looking at spending at least $2k in replacement/repair costs. I would reconsider your insurance coverage options now that you know what can happen. Good luck!

 

Praiseallujah!! That's good news. Good luck on getting it back to normal. Word to the wise, get an alarm ,preferrably one with a pager since you're in Crooklyn (former Bronx resident here ) and keep an eye on it. See if the alarm place will put the "starter kill relay" on the fuel pump circuit, that might help the car stay put in attempt of theft.

 

I don't know whether to be happy for you, or sad.

 

sad my man, sad

 

i had my 92 stanza stolen and got it back after a week. I tell you...knowing that some lunatic drove the **** outta my car..she felt used....gosh....its like someone raped your car...sucks...good luck though man...glad you got it back atleast.
