stolen car stuck at impound
This past week, my car was stolen - luckily police recovered it but the key fob was never recovered. I had them tow it to the local PD impound lot. I just purchased this car a few months ago from Carvana and hadn’t gone to the DMV yet to register it. So now, the impound lot refuses to release the vehicle to me because the bill of sale I showed them is over 30 days old and I don’t have a car title yet to show them because I hadn’t got it registered yet. They said that I have to have a sheriff come to the lot and register it. But I don’t have a key to start the car for an inspection since the car is out of state and the lot doesn’t allow locksmiths on the property for me to have a new key made. The sheriff said that my only options were to call Hyundai and see if they can have a new key made (called them - they can’t). I also called Carvana and they said they can’t help either because I am out of warranty. Hyundai dealership said that the car has to be present for them to make a new key. Now, only option left is to ask for a court order that orders the lot to release it to me which seems like a lot for just trying to get my car back…and advice??
