Question: How can I legally retrieve my car from a mechanic who is refusing to return it after a prolonged period, despite multiple attempts and communications?
Answer: In a case where a car repair shop has not returned a vehicle despite multiple requests and the owner has been blocked from contacting the shop owner, you should consider sending them a formalized demand letter, indicating that if this cannot be resolved out of court, you may bring an action to recover the car.
If you'd like to book a call with an attorney to discuss your situation, or for help with a formalized demand letter, contact Cape Law to see if services are offered in your jurisdiction.
