Atlanta Camaro driver finds something important missing under the hood. Then he checks insurance: ‘Insurance said nah’

Wait 5 sec.

An Atlanta man says he returned to his Chevrolet Camaro after a four-hour shift and found something crucial missing under the hood. The surprise did not end there. After documenting the alleged theft on TikTok, he later claimed his insurance provider declined to cover the damage. TikTok creator Robbypooh (@robbypooh53) shared the story in a series of posts. In his first video, Robby explained that he had been at his new job for only about four hours when he returned to his car and found it would not start. At first, he suspected a battery issue. “Must be the battery. Must be the battery. You think it’s a battery? No,” he said before opening the hood. When he revealed the engine bay, the space where the engine would normally sit appeared empty. “They took my engine,” Robby said. “I’m not even mad, bro.” Instead, he said he was impressed. The engine wasn’t the only thing missing According to Robby, it grew even more frustrating when a friend suggested checking whether other parts had also disappeared. In a third video, Robby crawled underneath the Camaro and inspected the exhaust system. He indicated that the vehicle’s catalytic converters, commonly referred to as “cats,” also appeared to be missing. “That … gone, bro,” he said repeatedly while filming underneath the car. In the comments section of a later video, Robby addressed a question many viewers had about insurance coverage. He tagged State Farm and wrote, “Insurance said nah.” @robbypooh53 They took nothing but the engine #fyp #mopar #fypシ #viral #atlanta ♬ Anxiety, suspicion, suspense, mystery(1066149) – Lyrebirds music In a follow-up video, Robby described his reaction after making the discovery. He compared his response to that of the cartoon character Tasmanian Devil, spinning wildly around a room. He also vowed to track down whoever allegedly took the engine. “I’m gonna eat noodles for the rest of my life until I find the people that took my engine,” Robby said with a humorous tone about the situation. One commenter joked, “Why would you leave the engine in the car?” Robby responded with a joke of his own. “Bro I don’t knoooow, i usually keep it in my wallet,” he replied. State Farm coverage and missing engines: More info needed Robby did not provide additional details about his policy, coverage levels, deductible, or the reason for the reported denial. Whether insurance covers a missing engine depends heavily on the specific policy. According to State Farm’s published coverage information, comprehensive coverage can help pay for losses involving theft, vandalism, or stolen vehicle parts. The company states that comprehensive insurance may cover “total or partial car theft” and theft-related damage to a covered vehicle. Because claim decisions depend on policy terms, coverage selections, exclusions, deductibles, and the facts of each incident, it is not possible to determine from Robby’s videos alone why his reported claim was not approved. As of publication, the creator has not publicly identified any suspects. No law enforcement information regarding the alleged theft was included in the videos reviewed for this story.
