Yes, in many states a garage is responsible for providing reasonable security for vehicles stored on the premises, not to mention security for people who are going to and from their parked cars (lighting, surveillance, etc).

Furthermore, even if your "claim check" has something about "not responsible for damage or theft to vehicles", it may not be sufficient defense for the garage. In some states it is illegal to even try to enforce a waiver of liability like that and doing so is an "unfair and deceptive business practice" amounting to fraud.

The rules on open-air parking are somewhat different.
