Stolen

Hi everyone, just looking for some support or encouraging words from the forum. Unfortunately, I woke up to my ZL1 being stolen - from what I know, the wheels and tires were stolen. In addition, the glass from the drivers side window was broken as well as the shift.

I'll provide more details as they come in, not sure if I should go through the trouble of having it repaired completely or not yet.

That sucks. Car thieves are some of the lowest of the low. As my signature says I have been through having my car stolen before. Never good. Insurance will at least ease the burden a little.

I have camera's set on my car now, but when my car was still outside, I found myself regularly waking up in the night and going outside any time I heard a funny noise or something.

So sorry to hear, awful news... My truck got stolen the other week, try not to stress this is why we have insurance. As long as your with a reputable carrier you'll have gap coverage.

I have a potential hypothesis that may assist some of you that stay in these types of neighborhoods:

- My neighborhood is quiet and not much goes on in it. Car theft is actually uncommon in my area. However, every night there are patrol cars that drive around at night surveying the neighborhood. The issue that I have with this is that, they don't work for the state or the police dept. They're referred to as ''curious civilians'' I wouldn't be surprised if they have a cover up operation going on.

I know it's easy to steal a 5th gen, but how did they steal your 6th gen?

Good question, all I know is they used a second car to bump it. Maybe they put it on a bay or some sort. They did something to the shift I believe so that they could get the tires/wheels off of the vehicle. That is all that was stolen..

So, just your wheels/tires were stolen? Sweet, time for an insurance paid upgrade!

I think many are under the assumption your entire car was stolen.
