The CPS would also like to use this opportunity to remind vehicle owners to consider the following safety tips:

  • If possible, park the vehicle in a locked garage.
  • If you have more than one vehicle, park the second vehicle of lesser value tightly behind the other motor vehicle to block it in your driveway.
  • Consider purchasing a steering wheel locking device or an onboard diagnostic port (OBD) locking device (prevents thieves from reprogramming the vehicle’s key fob).
  • Consider leaving keys in a container that will block the keyless FOB’s signal, such as a Faraday bag
  • Never leave your keys inside of your vehicle or unattended.
  • Lock your vehicle at all times.
  • Consider purchasing video surveillance for your residence.
  • Inspect your vehicle regularly for any potential tracking devices.
