A woman's body has been found in the back seat of a car parked in the garage of a home on Savanna Drive in Pontiac, and investigators believe she has been there for a while, Dave Bartkowiak Jr. and Rod Meloni report for WDIV. The body might have been there several years.

The Oakland County sheriff's office says an employee of a property management company stumbled upon the body in the rear seat of a vehicle while doing a walk-through Wednesday at the house.

An autopsy was performed Thursday and found no trauma to the body. A cause of death has yet to be determined. The body is believed to be that of a 49-year-old woman whose last known address was at the home, which is foreclosed.

WDIV reports the woman had money and used modern technology because all of her bills, including house payment, electricity and cable TV, were paid by automatic deduction.

"At one point in time she had $54,000 in the account," said Undersheriff Mike McCabe.
