Stolen car off BMW property
On July 7th, I took my car to BMW located at 555 West 57th Street in New York for a recall. After a week, I had not received any updates about my car. I needed my car back because I had a family reunion to attend. On July 12th, 2024, I called the service department to request picking up my car and was willing to bring it back when the parts were available. They agreed to this arrangement. However, 10 minutes later, I received a call from BMW stating they couldn't locate my car and asked if I could check the locator. After checking, it turned out that my car was located on Orchard Street, not at BMW. I contacted the police and dealt with the necessary paperwork such as filing a report and checking security camera footage. Two weeks went by without any information on my car and the next steps. In the third week, I received an email with two proposals. They offered to provide me with a newer car (either 2025 or 2024) but I would have to undergo a credit check, make a down payment, and commit to a 3-year contract. This was incredibly frustrating considering that my car was initially left with BMW. Adding to the stress, I received a call from the DA's office informing me that BMW had requested them to contact me to testify regarding the case of my stolen car. I found this unacceptable and refused. I am planning to post complaints on various platforms as this situation is outrageous. As of today, July 31st, I still haven't heard back from BMW regarding my car and the stolen items inside it. I will be contacting my lawyers with the next step to sue!!
