I assume this is over the life of your Focus and not an indication of vandalism in Toronto? That sucks though, people don't give a s**t... maybe if they worked for their money and put time and effort into their ride/maintaining it, maybe... they would give a damn.

that sounds pretty messed up... does the homeowners association or the building owner know about this? i would raise all hell about that situation.. that doesn't sound right at all. i bet you the mgr is getting that money straight into his pocket and you are getting jacked around by random people as a result.

Sounds like you ran into one of the sleazier landlords in Toronto. Sadly nothing in the tenant legislation prevents what they're doing, as parking spaces are the landlords to do with as they see fit.
Even if he went after them at the Landlord and Tenant Board, don't think he'd be successful in getting the Board to tell the landlord to stop the practice :(

if his landlord advertised *secure* underground parking, he could argue that this practice is violating that promise
it would be easier if the landlord wasn't in on it, and the mgr is pocking the money himself....

Welcome to Toronto. It's all those Ricers who are jealous of your rendition of the best small car on the planet :D I would think about moving to a different neighbourhood.

I wish I shared your optimism that the Landlord and Tenant Board here would see it that way, but I had a hearing last week where I caught the super having told a bold faced lie at the first hearing and during this second hearing I couldn't even get the member hearing the case to consider fining her or the landlord :rolleyes:

it sucks that so much bad stuff has happened to your car. I have seen it is person, and i respect the amount of work and effort you put into it.
Like others said, maybe its time for a 2way paging alarm.

welcome to TO, back in 2000 I had my ZX3 less than 2 weeks and it got keyed and it was only a stock Focus at the time.
