Auto Theft Layers of Protection


  • Always lock your car, even at home in your garage.
  • Roll up your windows.
  • Never leave valuables in your car.
  • Use a visible anti-theft device like a steering wheel lock, etc.
  • Use an alarm system with an electrical cutoff to disable the car.
  • When shopping or parking in large parking lots, always park as close to any activity as possible.
  • If possible, equip your car with a tracking device like "Lo Jack" or GM's "On Star" system. This will aid in recovery of your vehicle.
  • No one device works all the time. Thats why you need to consider layers of protection.
