Can the HOA tow your car? Furthermore, the HOA's authority to tow is usually limited to certain circumstances. For instance, a vehicle may be towed if it is parked in a designated no-parking zone, if it is blocking another vehicle or access point, or if it is deemed abandoned or inoperable. The specific criteria for towing can vary widely among different HOAs, making it essential for homeowners to familiarize themselves with their community's rules.
