if your parking lot has a security guard, and cameras, id go after them and sue... thats a secure parking area, and i see it as 100% that security guards fault if it was in plane site... shiznit, hear at the mall no less, if you snoop around a car the mall security will stop you and question you, and the fewer cars there are in the lot, like at 11pm, they stop EVERYONE and talk to them, usualy kicking them out... and thats not even a closed lot like your work its rite? some body should pay for this, and it deffenatly should NOT be you...

Could it have been someone you pissed off recently? The guards would/could have been bribed to look the other way. Either that or they went out on a donut run

when I worked at the plastic company (rubbermaid sell off)  the security guards were all fat and lazy...  so I second the doughnut idea...

No shiznit on this one:
Ware my dad works (American Standerd in the acutal factory in Salem Ohio) there is a guard that is no less than 350lbs and carries a o2 tank. How/Why do they even hire people like this who have no way to do their job? It's no wonder this nice guys car got stolen. I would def. try to get a case against them if nothing comes up.

Ain't that the truth, I was in that Deptford mall when I was in High school and got seperated from my buddys so I went back to my friends car and knew how to get the door open cause the window would just tilt forward. So I'm sitting there about to light up a smoke and 2 security guards come flying up.. within seconds of me getting in. Than they wouldn't believe me and gave me a bunch of .

Lucky me, my friends were walking up as they were about to take me away to "mall jail" lol

:sorry: about jacking your thread :)

I know it wasn't a conspiracy, it ws just security NOT doing it's job.  I am going to talk to my lawyer today and see what he says.  Insurance isn't going to do anything about it.  So I am totally screwed.

Nicethought guys, but they don't have to bribe them.  just come in around midnight when they are all sleeping, and too lazy to get out of there chairs.

Freaking ingrates.  I'm a security guard and i would be fired if something like that happened on my watch.  Of course, we only hire ex or current military where i work, and we are all armed.

That sucks, but I'll bet you dont get to the bottom of it unfortinetly. I would be pretty pissed at the guard though.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Did it have any anti-theft device installed, like a club, kill switch or alarm? 2 minutes seems like a long time to steal a Mustang. I had an 88 LX that got ripped off years ago. I got it back a week later and learned that all they used to steal it was a bar to break the steering column lock and screw driver. I got lucky that it was only joy riders that took mine. Hopefully they'll just drive it hard, run it out of fuel and abandon it like what happened to mine. Good luck.

Car thieves should hang from a rope until dead!

That is the same way my cougar came from the impound lot. You can do it in about 10 seconds.

well, at least the cops found my camera.  They busted a guy in another stolen car and he had my Digital camera on him.  Nabbed the guy in kitchener! but he wont tell them what happened to my car.  So now all they gotta do is make him talk and I can get my car back.
