Woman took my car... civil issue... trying to get it back

You're not taking her to the movies, not officially anyway! Send them in the mail or something. Don't involve friends, not good to lie. Consider massage, hair salon, etc. too. Whatever will cause that fish to bite!

I got you... the problem is I'd have to know when and where she's be going. She doesn't go to the movies.. not like the movies are open these days anyway, much less anything else, but I follow.

Forget that guy. Any tow man with half a brain knows a Denali of that generation might be AWD and if towed more than a hundred yards should be on a flatbed. It is not a big deal to pull it out of a parking space and move it a short distance. I forget, is it RWD or AWD?

It's a 2wd.. not AWD, already verified through the VIN... he should have just lifted the rear.. wheeled out the complex and then strapped it down.

E-gads.....
Yes, it is a civil matter...... But you can't get in trouble "stealing" your own car.

But you MUST contact the PROPERTY owner where the truck is parked. If they say OK, then you are ok.

Well, you could crawl under there one night with an 11mm wrench and take the driveshaft home with you. Then put a hook or clevis in the receiver and and pull her out of there to safer ground. Lots of ways to skin this cat! RWD makes it even easier.

YEP easy peasy wont trigger the alarm either, disconnect the driveline, tie a rope, drive away

Springer show at its best.

Jim,
How long did she pay on the vehicle? Reimburse her that money and get the ride back.

 

[fixmycar]

@ivin74 - That's not on the table

 

[fixmycar]

I'll update tomorrow... cross fingers

 

[fixmycar]

Got the truck!
Told the new tow guy.. Need to pick it up.. Showed registration and now I'm getting new keys made at locksmith.

One thing down in a long line of things.

 

[Fless]

So if she still has keys....

Locksmith is clearing out any other key(s) and FOB(s)
