Breaking a Lease: Do I Have a Right to Break My Lease Without Penalty

My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Ohio


Alright, so, there are a few things that have happened that make me wonder if I have a legal right to break my lease.

1. My car was broken into, full on window shattered, while parked in front of the leasing office. I asked if I could see the video surveillance and was told no, unless I have a subpoena. I did file a police report. (Staff could not have cared less).

2. I asked to see the contract/lease that I signed and was told no. (The girl I was talking to about my car just getting broken into was mad and said I could come back the next day when someone else was there if I wanted to see the contract....this happened on a Sunday and I work the same hours that the leasing office is open aside from the weekend.)

3. We filed a maintenance request due to our showers temperature fluctuating drastically and had actually burned my fiance's neck and back. (we have no proof of this) and were told this was not an emergency and that someone would be there sometime next week. We asked if we could know about what day or time, or even request a time, as we don't like people in our home when we are not there. We were told no. It has been 4 days now and have heard nothing from nobody.

4.Our apartment does not hold any heat due to all of our windows letting the heat out. We have to use space heaters and heated blankets which is racking up the electric bill and also our gas bill as we have to constantly turn the heat higher or it shuts off.
