Would you believe THIS line? I called the PFP in Lazaro Cardenas, Michoacan, to report a sighting and suspect description. "Officer Trevino" said "We don't do anything until the Ministerio Publico, tells us. I telephoned the Ministerio Publico's office. "Oh, we don't handle that, you have to call the Policia Municipal in Lazaro". End of story? the Municipales told me to contact the Ministerio Publico's office.
And an electronic gizmo is supposed to cure all that - gimme a freakin' break.
If a car is taken, the FIRST objective, the most crucial thing is to telephone your surplus line broker in the USA. At night leave a message. Car robbed, and you will call back at X hour in the morning. It is FRUITLESS to try and pursue a stolen car complaint to the cops by yourself - a pure waste of time. Let the broker earn his money. Only a few brokers have a tight relationship with underwriters in Mexico. A good surplus line broker is -aggressive- which makes or breaks the game right from the word go.
Secondly is to take inventory of any crucial documents that may have been stolen. Passport, FMM, insurance policy, bank cards. Call the embassy in Mexico, explain your plight and they will direct you. The same applies to a good surplus line broker - they will guide you step-by-step as to what to do, and what not to do. When an underwriter telephones a ministerio publico, they listen, same with a consulate or the embassy. Your voice complaining on the phone amounts to 2 cents or less with the cops and the D.A.
Your underwriter if he is more than half-assed can access a level in ADUANA that you could not in a million years. in Mexico City. No one else, anywhere else can rectify an impending calamity of having a car permit expire judged your fault. But this only works if your surplus line broker and the underwriter they represent are on the ball. Some companies and surplus line brokers are not worth spit.
If the vehicle is recovered even if it is a hunk of molten slag stops the bureaucratic nightmare in it's tracks.
You can do something to stop your vehicle from disappearing. No one else can. It's all up to you and how you decide to outwit the problem.
