They accessed the property without notice or permission. That seems like a defense should you receive a citation. I am curious what instructions the landlord gave you upon receiving the letter.

None really. He just texted me a picture of the letter and was like "Hey, you might want to deal with this". And I'm on friendly terms with the guy. He knew about the car beforehand, and had no problems with it. I don't think either of us knew about this specific rule. Obviously I don't want any violation fees getting sent to him, so I just told him I would deal with it.

They have to send a violation notice first. Since you thru a rental agreement have constructive ownership of the property, and the car is yours, a violation notice sent to him is probably invalid. The notice would not include any due fees as you have a right to a hearing to contest said notice. I'd get the required item done before a notice gets sent, especially since you have 2 of the 3 items a car needs to be on a public road in place.

Landlord has a right to control what is going on THEIR property. You are not the OWNER of the property.

By signing a lease with a tenant, a landlord transfers most of that right to the tenant. Landlords have little legal control over their tenant's actions as long as the tenant is obeying both the law and the lease.
