Hi, my daughter moved to Heredia a couple years ago and brought her car from the States, shipped to Limon. Big mistake, due to all the custom fees, etc. A few months ago I told y’all this story on this forum. Anyway, she let someone borrow her car, and he won’t give it back. He got it into some kind of accident and kept telling her she needed to pay to fix it, then pay for daily storage of the car, and she was conned out of a lot of money but now he is refusing to give her the car or tell her where it is. She finally told my husband and me about it, and we are trying to help her as best we can but we don’t understand how the legal system works there. And we are in the States. This has been going on since September 2023 and she didn’t tell us about it until 2 weeks ago! Any advice from expats would be greatly appreciated!
