My name is Diamond Buchanan, and I am reaching out because I truly need help bringing attention to a situation that has turned my life upside down. On Monday, March 2, 2026, my 2015 Nissan Murano was stolen while in the care of Uptop Motors, located at 9921 W. Carmen Ave. I brought my vehicle there for suspension repairs, trusting that it would be safe. Instead, I was later informed that my car was missing. As of today, I am left without answers and without transportation.

I am a single mother to a four-year-old child, and I work as a shift manager at McDonald’s just to make ends meet. I work hard every day to provide stability for my child. My vehicle is not a luxury — it is how I get to work, take my child to school and daycare, buy groceries, and handle everyday responsibilities. Without it, I am struggling deeply. This situation has placed an overwhelming emotional and financial strain on me. I feel powerless and unheard. I have serious concerns about how my vehicle could go missing while under the responsibility of a repair shop. I believe there are important questions that need to be answered about what happened and how this was allowed to occur.

I am asking for your help in bringing awareness to this situation. I simply want answers, accountability, and assistance in recovering my vehicle or being compensated so I can continue caring for my child and maintaining my employment. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any support you can offer. Your kindness will make a real difference in our lives.
