I would suggest that anyone looking to easily get away with stealing a car or car parts to go to this location. They specifically tell their customers to park in that back row of the parking lot across the street. On the north east corner of Clark and train, the back row labeled customer parking. That's because it's the only part of the property the security camera view cannot reach. The management is highly uninterested in the well being of their customers belongings or their personal safety. I rented a van from there recently and was specifically told by an employee I had to park my car there, when I came back several days later my catalytic converter had been sawed off and parts of the cars undercarriage had been damaged. When I told one of the employees what had happened and that I wanted to see the camera footage she told me there was no point because EVERYBODY who works there knows the security cameras don't actually cover the customers parking spots. The management didn't even have the professionalism or decency to return my calls. When I finally spoke with a member of upper management he told me I ran the same risk parking at Walmart, except Walmart's employees aren't privileged to that kind of information (for their own protection as well as their customers, that's just common sense), and Walmart's cameras actually DO cover their parking lots - not just the areas that protect their merchandise, Walmart's employees also don't have access to info like when you plan on returning, and when I go to Walmart its not under the assumption that parts of my car may or may not have been sawed off while I'm buying groceries. So like I said if your looking to STEAL CARS OR CAR PARTS make sure you make it over to uhaul on Clark and train!
If my car was left open and my radio was stolen I'd understand, even a smash and grab, I'd be upset but that sort of thing happens. But judging from the crime and additional damages this was someone who knew the owner wouldn't be back until the next day, who also knew the area was specifically vulnerable, that the grounds were unattended during specific times, and that the management is far below standard and felt pretty comfortable posting up under my car long enough to be sawing things off of it. To boot they blamed it on the "shitty" community around them. What kind of business owner won't let someone review security footage after one of their customers is a victim of a crime on their property? What sense does that make? Don't waste your time and money here, rent somewhere your stuff is safe and the management is competent. read more
