Is there a maximum a facility in Virginia can charge for storage per day if you do not pick up your car when it is done?

== == YES, I don't remember what VA Bch is but I know they have a limit. This would be covered by the "mechanic's leins act " or a similar type state regulation that sets out the amounts that can be charged for vehicle storage. If you don't pay for the repairs and the storage costs, eventually the garage can auction off the car to get their money back. When you authorize the repairs to be done, on your car, you are entering into a "service contract " to pay for the repairs , or lose the car if you don't pay up when the repair work is completed.


Is it legal for an auto body shop in California to charge storage fees without notifying the customer in advance and no repairs were performed?

Generally, auto body shops cover storage fees in the small print on their work orders. They want customers to pick up their vehicles when the repairs have been completed. They do not want to store vehicles nor remain responsible for them once they are completed or if the customer changed their mind about having the repairs done. You need to check any papers that you signed when you arranged to have the work done and dropped off your vehicle. If the auto body breached the agreement by not performing the agreed upon repairs you may need to pay the bill in order to retrieve your car and then sue in small claims court. It will all depend on what you each have in writing. If possible you should consult with an attorney who can review your situation and explain your options. You should act as soon as possible to avoid further storage fees from accruing.


Can the state of North Carolina charge for personal property when they repossess your car?

The state doesn't repossess your car - private companies do that on behalf of the lienholder. They don't charge you for private property left in your car when they repossess it - that would be illegal. They charge a "storage fee" for the items they remove from your car. Underhanded, yes, but they can legally do it.


Is dealer required to notify you they will charge storage fees?

in Texas a dealership may only charge you a max of 90.00 without first getting your approval in writing, so if you signed something and it said they would charge x dollars a day for storage You owe them, although if you never signed anything or you signed something that did not mention a storage fee, then you do not owe them anything. Even if they have signs posted that say they are going to charge! if you did not sign a piece of paper that stated they charge for storage, You do not owe them anything. Keep in mind any mechanic can place a lien on any vehicle for repairs or for abandonment if left for too long.
