I'm sorry about the damage and the attempted break-in. I'm glad they stopped short of actually getting-in the car. Was there anything of value visible inside the car? If the Landlord (management?) has been aware of the broken gate for a year and failed to fix it I'd ask them where do I submit my claim. I wouldn't expect that to go anywhere but it might motivate them to fix the security gate. Good luck on the repairs.

I agree. My girlfriends parent house is in a gated community. I actually lived on there as well about 10 years ago. The gate was broken then and still is till this day. It's amazing you pay all this money for maintenance and the privilege of living in a gated community which is supposed to be protected from the outside scum like the one that tried to break into your car and they can't simply fix a gate. I actually told my future mother in law not to pay her maintenance any more along with about 10 other neighbors to try to get some issues fixed in a timely manner. Sorry about your car.

Our complex is suppose to be gated and they have not fixed the gate in over a year. Time to sick the lawyer on them now. The reason we moved here is because it is suppose to be a gated community.
Better check your bylaws in your community. Something tells me their not responsible whatsoever. Good luck with your repairs though

I live in a 55 and over gated community and I can tell you the gate is a total waste. The cars with out an opener line up outside and follow a resident in. The only way to stop them is with a guard.
