@@jeffyoung6222 Not really. Most times you won't get the full value of the car. As a perfect example would be a modified performance car stolen. The owner will get the current market value, which is less than he/she paid, and it won't take into account any aftermarket products.

It's even better when you disable keyless entry altogether. No more faraday boxes to carry around or worries about thieves coming to your home and steal your signal.
Thieves have a special physical key that unlocks most doors. Once inside the car, they connect their computer to the OBD which is usually under the stiring wheel. In 2 minutes, they can access the car computer and reprogram the key with a new one. This new key now can starts the car and off they go. So protecting your key will not work. Best protection? Install an OBD lock, put a Motion Alarm Dash Cam in your car with high DB (some have an alarm to be used inside your home to alert you), use a wheel lock. You can also, when using your car outside your parking lot, disable your key so that it does not emit any signal (each key is different, ask your dealer). This also saves the battery inside your key.
I've had this steering wheel to brake pedal lock since I was in high school. And up to this day, I still use it. somebody tried to steal my Silverado one time, but they only jacked up the keyhole lock mechanism on the door. They most likely saw my steering wheel to brake pedal lock and moved on to an easier target.
Great video, thanks for sharing these tips. I just got myself a 2022 Hyundai Kona and wanted to be sure mine wasn’t on the list. It didn’t make the list. I guess thieves aren’t too interested in Hyundai. That’s more than okay with me.
Yes, first, do protect your keys in a metal box or Faraday box when you arrive home or on a visit to a friend. Put them in your fridge. Do not leave them in your pocket. Also use an OBD lock so that thieves can not access the car computer. With the steering wheel lock, you will discourage thieves who will look for an easier car to steal. If you use a tracking device installed in the car, some thieves will leave the car parked for a day to be sure that it is not found by these devices.
The best thing for many people to do is lock the car door. I have seen tons of ring videos where people have left their car door unlocked which makes it easier for them to get in. These lowlives are just walking through neighborhoods, checking for unlock doors.
Car theft has always been with us. As a teenager (back last century) I used to place 3 toggle switches that cut various electronics off. The switches also had to be in a specific arrangement (like 2 up 1 down), the ON/OFF was removed from any printing. Well, nothing was ever stolen.
Not only cars, William. Everything gets stolen in America, the richest country in the world. Somebody will even steal your $1 BIC lighter or ballpoint pen. Need a sturdy safe at home? Would be useless because somebody will steal your whole safe and everything in it.
@@scooterbob4432 That is true. A lock keeps an honest man honest. I am sure somebody who was smarter than I and had a bit of time could figure out my rather primitive pre-computer base 2 setup for starting the engine BUT they did steal my 8 Track a day after I purchased it from Woolco back in 1972.
Sorry but most cars are manual transmission. Not many automatic cars around although they are becoming more popular. As automatics are far more expensive than manual cars and use far more petrol
@@jacquelinenash2118 Like all of YT, this Canadian video was made for North American (mainly US) viewers. Something like 95% of US cars are automatics.

My Lexus RX 350 F-sport got stolen last week. 😭 They tagged team and took my car over night. Gone in 20 mins. One thief came at 8pm to unlock the car. 3 came in the middle of night and took the car. Very disappointed on how easy it was for them to take the car. Cops told me that they could have Apple air tagged my car 😓 I’m however suspicious of the dealership as they called to buy back my car a week before. I declined and they called me after to sell me a new RX 🤔 A strategy to meet their bottom line during the chip shortage? Possibly 🤔 Honestly nothing will protect your car. The key is a joke! Corrupt people at the dealers can easily duplicate your key and sell it. The fob key bag/box 👎🏼 They had a tool they use to put in the key hole. Takes 30secs to open the door. Cameras 👎🏼 I had 2 cameras on them and a bright LED driveway light. Footage was clear as day. They still took my car. You can try to stop them the first time, but they’ll come again. They track your car. They know where your car is especially with all these new gadgets in new cars. Best is to have premium auto insurance 👍🏼
It’s sad that the dealers put people or even the workers to steal a car bought from them sad sad I love your story and comments but I truly agree with all you said.
Look in a REVELCO ANTI THEFT SYSTEM . 3.5 million installed and not 1 car stolen . They install them on boats , planes and 18 wheelers . I have 1 on my Honda accord and also my Toyota Tacoma 4x4 . No problems .
They don't even need to clone the key to steal RXs. There's something under the wheel arch theyre using as a backdoor entry. I know a guy that got his stolen twice in 2 months
Simply wrap your car key fob in aluminum foil while in your pocket or in your residence. #2 Located under the hood is the vehicles fuse box. Just remove the fuel pump fuse.till you want to use the vehicle again..
I have a Manual Transmission, and if I leave town, I put on my club and pull the fuel system fuse. I also have my doorbell camera set to alarm for any motion around my car and to notify me by phone. If I am home, the thief will be caught in the act. If that happens, he will not be a thief anymore, if you catch my drift.
@@neolithic3 It's interesting when people say things like you just did and don't know what the f*ck they are talking about. Actually, in Texas (where I am) if you catch someone breaking into your car at night it is LEGAL to use any measure of force, INCLUDING DEADLY FORCE, if it is in the nighttime hours. During the day, you can LEGALLY use any force except deadly force. I learned that within the first week of the Police Academy. But you have to actually catch them in the act, so I would get them AFTER they broke in to be in compliance with the Law.
@@neolithic3 Nothing funny about taking a life. No, I'm not itching to kill, but I won't lose sleep over a dead thief either. I'm a former cop and a war veteran.

A kill switch if properly installed is a good way to stop or slow down a theif. There are kill switches out there that overlay the ECU data bus and require the driver to enter in their person key presses which are programmed (these presses are by pressing keys they choose on their steering wheel). Once the theif get the vehicle started as soon as they put it into gear the vehicle shuts off.
There are many more Ford F150's old and new than any other truck. Could you calculate the percentage of each vehicle stolen? That would have more relevance.
as a professional car thief this list is some what spot on. however, the Nissan Altima and some chevys and fords are junk cars. a true professional like me who knows these vehicles would seldom touch an f150 or ram 1500. unless its a raptor or t-rex. secrete the same people in car manufacturing that develop and create anti-theft technology in cars are the same people who work along side us. hence we are quick on the tech. for those of you who have a garage quit the laziness and put your vehicle in your garage. invest in a good secure garage door. we also have the capability to defeat garage doors. main situational awareness at all times. if you are going to invest big in a lexus etc get the right insurance. those of you that have flashy off-road gear like fox shocks etc. this grabs our attention. blend in not stand out. my two cents.
I have an alarm with vehicle tracking, a club on the steering wheel and I turn my wheels when I park. At home, the driveway is well lit with security cameras. My bedroom is just a few feet away and my German Shepherd Dog is a very light sleeper with a deep menacing bark. But, if a thief is determined to steal my Toyota Tundra, Toyota Corolla or Dodge Grand Caravan, I'm sure they will find a way. Hopefully they'll just move on to an easier target. So far, so good. Knock on wood. Nice to see that none of my vehicles are in the Top 10 most stolen.
Get a stick shift!!! Over 90 percent of car thieves don't know how to drive a stick shift. Or don't get an expensive car. They are after the high performance parts to resell. If one buy a sensible compact or an economy car it has a very little chance of being stolen.

yes. insurance companies will get you a new car. how long do you have to wait? is it the trim you want? the colour? i have a prime rav4. it's a really really really tough car to get. any trim level. i have a steering wheel lock. i disable my key fob every night so that i will not emit any signals and.....i installed an engine kill switch. i sleep so much easier at night now.
Dang my car is number 5 lol. I wonder if hybrid is less likely to be stolen. I live in oil country I think people here would sooner spit on it than steal it 😂
The best anti-theft is to remove your relay. When Fuel pump won't work how they gonna take your car away.. lol.. this is the best way. So learn what relay is to remive and then you are good.
I like people who leave their keys close to their house door in a glass bowl or something 😂 You just have to stand as close to the window as you can, collect the signal with a receiver and transmit that signal directly to the vehicle, like piggy-backing. No keys needed and the vehicle is yours in less than a minute
Trackers are defeatable using a jammer that jams wireless internet In the US jamming cellular voice is illegal but jamming data is not, so a thief using a jammer would not be violating FCC rules I don't know what the law is in Canada, but jamming wireless internet does break federal law Some state law might be broken but not federal law
With gas prices going up, hybrids are more desirable now. But on a regular day, no one will want an old Hybrid Civic. Too slow, too hard to sell, and in my town, too recognisable. I have not seen another Hybrid Civic on the road in the past year that I've owned mine. The Hybrid badge and blue interior are too easy to spot. I also don't keep anything in the car. Some sanitizer, a snow brush/scraper, a tire pump, it wouldn't exactly be a gold mine. 😂
In many areas, the thieves that steal the car are not looking to sell the car, they do it on a dare, just to joy ride and usually crash it for fun. The main cars they target are any that are easy to steal. They are not part of a car ring and think it is a fun thing to do.
If a professional car theft wants your car very desperately, he will succeed in stealing it and there is NOTHING you can do about it. The more additional “anti-theft” devices you add, only makes the challenge to overcome them even more “fun” to the car thief!
What about Engine Immobilizers? Ever heard of the Ghost Immobilizer? You need a pin in order to start the vehicle but its over $1,000 to buy and install it. I hear it's the best option and theft proof.
South Africa here.... It has to be vw hatchbacks. I will never buy one of them cars while I still live here. They love Toyotas too.. Hilux... Fortuner....Siyaya(passengers van).
Because of the poor and hungry conditions if the system is justice and fair this wouldn't happen. If the money system is justice and equally the people wouldn't steal things.

Put a 12ga. Shotgun in the steering horn
What about the Toyota RAV4?
What about the Infiniti QX60?
How about disabling the entire system and installing an old and crude system from 15 years ago? Thieves will truly be befuddled.
Do you mean the manual transmission? I wish my 2020 Camry has one.
@@firstnamelastname564 No the total security system
What about lo jack?
No Cadillacs?? I guess I'm safe. Lol
😅
I’m surprised I didn’t see the Jeep Grand Cherokee or the Dodge Hellcat trims in this list
The Jeeps are s*** in the Hellcat beat the death of they won't even take them.
Most reliable sports cars for 2021 or 2022
No love for the Kia/Hyundai?
So..... The top 10 most popular cars/trucks sold get stolen most often.
Buy a Buick....lol.
Buy a Volvo. Great cars that home boys would never consider and much harder for thieves to sell.
Dodge charger, challenger?
Just get good reliable insurance so you don’t have to worry about it getting stolen
Ahh why didn’t we think of that 🙄🤦
I guess you never got back a stolen car no insurance can give you back what they have taking and you getting it back
If a professional car theft wants your car very desperately, he will succeed in stealing it and there is NOTHING you can do about it. The more additional “anti-theft” devices you add, only makes the challenge to overcome them even more “fun” to the car thief!
A tow truck driver (who can be the thief) doesn't bring suspicious attention unless the owner comes out to stop the towing.
Yeah! With a gun! Lol! 🤣
What about Engine Immobilizers? Ever heard of the Ghost Immobilizer? You need a pin in order to start the vehicle but its over $1,000 to buy and install it. I hear it's the best option and theft proof.
South Africa here.... It has to be vw hatchbacks. I will never buy one of them cars while I still live here.
They love Toyotas too.. Hilux... Fortuner....Siyaya(passengers van).
Because of the poor and hungry conditions if the system is justice and fair this wouldn't happen. If the money system is justice and equally the people wouldn't steal things.
Also the banks are theives they steal your money with excuse some things
Can you review Chinese car brands?
Just don’t go to Atlanta and you’ll be OK
Nothing German, of course. They’re fortresses to try to get into and nick. Just don’t lose your keys. 💰 💰 💰 💰 💰
Buy a wagon. Nobody in NA understands those.
You even have Corolla's getting stolen here in Canada. That's how bad it is.
Which corollas? Cross or sedan
@@alvinsimba734 Sedan's.
I have a Cross however and I'm paranoid where I park it. I always park in the garage.
@@alb.4089 if it’s a sedan, get the one with switchblade key which you can only get in the LE and L model then you set
@@alvinsimba734 For my vehicle it comes with the key fob and keyless entry. The physical key is inside the fob for emergencies. I have the LE model. The L base model comes with just the key.
Damm even my toyota highlander 2021 😭.
Yess hunni, I ❤ my Camry! And I'm not worryin' bout it being stolen either!! I wouldn't 🚘 anything g else!!#InNC
Hmm maybe I need to get a diff car like Volvo, genesis or Alfa Romeo
Add: Any 2015 or newer Hyundais. Way too easy to steal
Steering wheel locks takes 15 seconds ro remove.
I'm not surprised West Africans are most recipients of these stolen cars, very edifying video👌💪, keep the good works, Kingsley-Moore from West Africa
Well my truck is number 1 on the list 🤷🏽♂️🤦
I’m sorry but dodge charger has to be on the list and dodge challenger especially in detroit and Chicago,
Seems catalytic converters and gasoline is the hot ticket presently.
Can’t imagine why anyone would want an RX. They may be reliable but they are butt ugly.
I hear that a bright yellow boot lock works as well as a Glock!
Additional airtag
i can add gps tracking
I have a RX 350
They want it come get it I want a new one 😝
I have the solution to car stolen find DeFalken brake pedal lock patented
Don't understand most new cars are push to start and factory alarm to. Guess nothing works around this professionals 😐
Toyota Venza not on list. Nice
