UPDATE: The car was towed by the apt complex in the middle of the night. Apparently they had new parking tags that they were implementing this week but she was out of town when the flyers were handed out. She's now trying to have them pay for it because she got no notice, nothing was mailed to her nor had she ever been informed. She even had the placard for the spot but it wasn't their new, shiny ones. So...fun, fun.

The car was stolen from Greenwood, IN. This is just south of Indianapolis (by maybe a mile). At the moment I don't have any more information. I hope to get a lot more from her very soon. But if you are in the surrounding area and see a BRIGHT GREEN Fiesta that doesn't belong, call the cops!

Thanks for looking and I will update as soon as I get more info!

That is a damn shame, it was either a tow truck that did it or she left the key in the car. The Ford PATS system takes a minimum of 10 minutes to program a new key to the ignition. Have her call the impound lots and file a police report. Hope she finds it in the same condition it was in when it was taken.

That suuuuuucks.

Now I'm paranoid about my Fiesta. <_<

But I have a manual, so hopefully that is deterrent enough.

She's already filed a police report, I'll suggest the impound lot searching when I hear from her next.

She might want to inform her bank as well. Just to see if there wasn't a snafu on their end.

Glad she found out what happened. Fords with PATS are damn hard to steal without a tow truck.
