Default Theives suck.

Last night I picked up my brother at a local shop, he dropped it off there to get his timing belt replace today. Apparently last night someone broke into his 1991 Integra GS. He had a Clifford G3 alarm, and a club. All the stole was his Kenwood deck (no face plate) and his Infiniti speakers.

I understand this could be worse, but it still ******* sucks for him, I feel bad for him. This happened at Quality Foreign Auto in Mill Creek Washington. If anyone see's a Kenwood deck floating around with no face plate and 4 Infiniti Kappa speakers, please PM me directly. Thank you.

I'm not sure, I'm going to talk to my brother about that. Apparently they have cameras that monitor their parking lot. I'm going to see what that turns up.

No windows were broke, I'm assuming a slim jim or something. And yes, he did leave his keys there.

Yeah man, that's what I'm starting to think. However, we know the owner of the shop and my entirely family has always given them business. I know what you mean though.

This has happened to numerous friends of mine.
Some of my buddies (that are really into audio) completely strip there cars/trucks before leaving them for service over-night. It's a f*cked-up world we live in when people have to be this protective of there possessions. Sorry for your bro

So you left your car and keys with the shop and they left it in their parking lot over night. Your car has a Clifford alarm and somehow the thieves managed to break in and steal your radio and speakers, and there are no signs of a break-in nor did the alarm go off! This scenario sounds pretty fishy to me!

That's great that you give the shop lots of business, but business is business and they are more than happy to do their job and take your money. And one thing for sure, they don't give a rats *** about your car, especially when something happens and it falls back on them! Sounds to me like one of the workers snatched the keys without the boss knowing, or they were all in it together!

First of all, if I would report this to the police and make a police report. Then I would report it to your insurance company and get reimbursed, but that's only if your bro still has all the receipts. Or better yet, call the shop's insurance company and report the incident (you may be able to obtain this info from your Secretary of State). Second, I would get on the shop owner's *** and get some answers! Ask him how something like this could've happened in a secure parking lot, then get the tape from the video surveillance. If anything, and depending on your age, I would send my dad into the shop to tear the guy a new *sshole! Finally I would call the Better Business Bureau and file a complaint with them. I wish you luck, don't give up, and don't take no for an answer!

The owner and my family are personal friends. The parking lot is under servailance, however, my brother parked on the side of the shop just to avoid theft. Obviously that didn't happen.

My brother did a file a police report, however the police didn't feel it was nessacary to come out. My brother only has liability coverage on his car, so nothing is covered.

Is Quality Foreign Auto just north on Bothell-Everett Hwy from F&F and Les Schwab?. Like 180th and Bthl-Evrt Hwy? That's my stomping grounds. Sucks for your bro. Hope everything gets replaced.
