I've had dealings with California CARB about registration of foriegn vehicles. I got it resolved and the people I dealt with were simple bureaucratics doing their jobs. But that was 20 years ago.
It seems things are changing. These folks had their Land Rover Defender seized because of a VIN number mix-up. Maybe they got swindled by the previous owner, maybe it was never correct, maybe parts got replaced at some point.
For this huge crime, six vehicles and many agents swooped down on their property and grabbed the car. They were from Homeland Security. Now the folks can't find out where the car is located, or even get people to talk to them. It looks like summary justify the bureaucratic way is about to happen.

This is plain stupid. You don't need gun-toting federal law-enforcement agents to execute a car seizure. This another case of the EPA and it sub-agencies turning into tyrannical law-unto-themselves.
The American People are being disrespected and mistreated too often these days.
