I live in an apartment complex which has a car theft or car breakin every four weeks (I recently checked the stats with police). The whole neighborhood has a lot of car thefts.
The owners want to shut down our apartment complex parking lot and repave. For two full days and one night, we will have no place to park except on the nearby streets.
(I'm thinking of sleeping in my car that night.)
However and anyway, if any of our cars are stolen while parked outside the parking lot, are the owners liable for the theft?
Half the parking lot could be paved at one time and the other half paved at another time. If it was done that way, everyone would still be able to park in the parking lot -- half of our parking lot would accommodate all our cars.
This plan of throwing all the car out of the complex for two days is bad.

Yes, and it would cost a lot more to mobilize twice.
Always lock your car doors and keep everything not attached to the car out of sight. I'm always amazed by the number of people who do not lock their doors. That was a lesson my dad taught me as soon as I started driving.
even in our indoor garage the building is not liable . taking a parking spot indoors is for convenience only . it just makes it easier for you to park , but you are not guaranteed your vehicle is any safer . unless the complex says they assume responsibility for your car being safer indoors than outside they are not liable .
we even have a guard booth to enter our building premise and it means nothing when it comes to your car and liability .
in fact they won't even put camera's in the garage because their attorney's told them if they do they may be accepting some liability if something happens to someone's car .
No landlord, complex, parking garage or the like is responsible for anything that happens to a car parked in their lot/on their property.
Lock your car, take your valuables out, and hide your chargers in your glovebox. Why anyone to break into a car for a $20 charger (and yet they do) is beyond me, but then again, I'm not a meth head or a crack head looking for a way to get my next hit.
