They operate in organised groups. They have valuable information about the owners of "targeted" cars. They know where and at what times they leave their cars. They are cunning and precise, so they can break into a vehicle in a matter of minutes without leaving any traces behind. How not to fall prey to fraudsters? Don't save money - choose the best security.
We demotivate with GPS
An effective deterrent to thieves are GPS vehicle location and recovery systems. In a hidden location in the car, there is a GPS module that sends continuous information to a location centre, which allows the location of the vehicle to be determined. It is also possible to upgrade this system with a mobile phone theft notification function. If the system detects an attempted break-in or car hijacking, it sends information to the owner's mobile number about the incident and the position of the car, if it is in motion.
This is a rather rare security feature as it is expensive and requires a monthly or annual subscription. Nevertheless, it is one of the most effective and the chance of recovering the car is very high," says the Auto-Boss Accessories Specialist. The best solution to prevent car theft is to combine different types of security, i.e. to use two or more solutions in one vehicle. What matters for a thief is the time it takes to defeat the security - the more of them we have, the more we discourage crooks from hijacking our car.
