Anyone here have any past experiences with their buildings garage parking lot ramp, mainly the incline and their G? First time living in a condo so no idea what my options are.

Long store short, a month ago the ramp was under construction and I couldn't get my car out with out scraping like a ****. I ended up parking my car for the two weeks across the street in a different building.

Then they finished the job but now it still scraps. Previously it did not scrape one bit.

I know there is damage as a result of the initial construction and now I'm worrying every time I go in and out.

Basically, can I invoice the property management company for the initial damage and maybe make a new claim of some sort for potential future damages.

 

to make a long story short.....no you cannot get compensated

 

If your car is at stock ride height maybe you'd have a case, but it its lowered no way.

 

What did it damage? The bumper?

99% of the time they won't care.

 

I got a stock g35c.

The bottom of the front bumper was already scraped up (more so now), but the real damage happened to one of the mid section brackets underneath my car.

Based on the responses I guess I am sol.

 

Mid section brackets? My car scrapes on what appears to be flat ground and I am still yet to damage anything vital.

It's always worth a try so talk to them about it and see if they can repave it for a smoother transition before it does anymore damage to your car. Make it clear that it is not lower and that other patrons with sport styled cars are going to have the same issue. Until then, just try and go at it on a really aggressive angle so the bumper doesn't touch.

 

This is really all you can do.

You may be able to find a loophole somewhere and say that there is no sign stating a rough transition.

 

Wooh you're scraping at stock height?

I have to angle like crazy with my lowered G but can avoid scraping, coming up is the toughest part on the sharp inclined hills.

 

Yeah the transition is brutal - it has to get over a small walk way, which is basically like one giant steep on both sides speed-bump. I'll take a pic to show how bad it actually is.

There are some vette's and porsches in the garage too, no idea how they do it.

 

dammm thats cray on a stock G ...i never scrape on any ramp and im stock height also

 

im stock height but my problem is my midpipe it hangs a little lower than the rest of the body and sometimes over speed bumps if im not going like really slow i have scraped it a couple times...and some steap driveways here and there...im lowering my car next summer and im in an appartment building so im going to be in the same boat as you soon lol

 

^ if thats the case you gotta angle that bish...haha and you just stop in the middle of the road to take a pic like that?

 

LOL!!!! nah it was a parking lot with no one in it right at near steeles and 400 area...and i heard it scrape a bit so i stopped and took a pic to see how close it was

 

I've scraped until that meshy weaved thing is no longer showing on the bottom part, dunno what the consequences are lol

 

i have nightmares about thoose kinda speedbumps. id expect my exhuast to left behind ahhaa.....holy ****, id expect blains car turn into a freakn seasaw LMAO
