It seems like you're having issues with your apartment complex towing your cars. In Oregon, the law states that:
- Landlords must provide written notice before towing your vehicle.
- Vehicles can only be towed if they are improperly parked or abandoned.
Can you confirm if you received any written notice?

In Oregon, if you received a notice and moved your car as instructed, it shouldn't have been towed. If it was, you may have a legal claim. Consider consulting with a local attorney for advice.
