It never caught on because of price and maintenence. And noone would let their BMW get forklifted up twenty feet by either a robot or the scruffy-looking operator.

They're not quite as you described, but there are plenty of parking lots that put cars into big giant cabinet-like things.
They do it with boats, too, when they're winterized.
