Traveler Returns to Find Her Car Stripped of Wheels at DFW Airport

D/FW AIRPORT — A North Texas woman came back from a business trip to discover her car resting on blocks inside the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport parking garage. Sarita Peterson said she had paid extra to use the short-term parking area because she knew her return would be late. Even in the dark, she could see her Honda Civic sitting lower than usual. “They took the tires, wheels, lug nuts,” she said. “They did leave me with two broken jacks.” Peterson said she paid $17 per day to park in short-term parking because she believed it would be the safest option. She said the incident will end up costing her nearly $1,000. “There’s crime everywhere,” airport spokesman David Magana said. “There is not a police department in the world that can prevent every crime.” Because it is a holiday weekend, Peterson must wait until Monday for an insurance adjustor to inspect her car. An airport official said Peterson will not have to pay the $17 per day until then. Copyright 2007 by nbc5i.com

There is a rule at E3 Limo Dallas, we never leave our vehicles unattended at DFW parking garages for more than 30 minutes. It is almost amazing that we are pretty much guaranteed a door ding or a scratch on one of our cars every time we leave them in the garage in order to pick-up a customer at the baggage claim. Also, how much money and time Ms. Peterson would have saved by taking one of our Dallas limos to the DFW airport instead of taking her own car?
