Today, my car was found with a smashed window and a torn-apart steering column, in order to hot-wire it. The thief didn't get away with my car, though. The engine was in the garage, where I've been working on it for two days. FML

minauto tells us more.

This actually happened to my boyfriend but he posted it from my account since he doesn't own a smartphone himself. he pulled his engine from his car to work on it (he's an auto tech student) and had been without a car for a few days. luckily he was planning on getting a new ignition, he wasn't however planning on replacing a perfectly good window... but thanks for all the comments guys, i'll be sure to let him know about all the support!

I'm guessing the thief didn't see the "check engine" light.

This literally just happened to my car two days ago! He not only failed to hot wire it, but he left his phone and screwdriver in my car. -.-

someone tried this on my old car however the battery was dead so it wouldn't start so the thieves pushed it to the car park opposite my house thinking I wouldnt see it

Does he not know that he can use those really big smartphones? I think they're called computers.

What makes you think he has a computer?

Hopefully they catch the guy who did it

my boyfriend has had a car stolen from him. he is a mechanic too, so ik how he would be if someone had done that to his car. I'm sorry about that.

Sorry, random question: are you guys from the states?

That awkward moment when you and op are dating the same guy....
