Are all parts of a car park considered common areas? The back wall of the carpark needs repairs and we are not sure who is responsible

Are all parts of a car park considered common areas?

We have 3 designated car parks in a large apartment building. The carparks share a common back wall that is leaking water. Who is responsible for this wall? I’ve asked the question as the water is along the whole wall not just where our car parks are.

Any maintenance issue that affects more than one lot is usually common property.

Any maintenance issue that affects more than one lot is usually common property. That would seem to apply to the car park wall here but for extra clarity you may need to check the plans and any exclusive use by-laws. Contact your body corporate manager and they should be able to provide you with a definitive reply.
