How to protect your vehicle from theft?

Police offered the following tips to prevent car theft:

• Park your vehicle inside a locked and secure garage.
• Block the access to the onboard diagnostic port to prevent thieves from reprograming the vehicle’s key fob.
• Use a steering wheel locking device.
• Place the vehicle key fob inside a radio frequency shielding bag/pouch to block cell signals when not in use.
• Consider equipping your vehicle with an aftermarket global positioning system (GPS) tracker. The tracker may assist police in locating the vehicle and/or suspects.
• Ensure all keys are accounted for and never left in the vehicle.
• Lock your vehicle at all times.
• Never leave your vehicle running and unattended.
• Consider purchasing a surveillance system and ensure the quality and function will capture any suspicious activity for a 24-hour period.

Any suspicious activity around vehicles should be reported to police. “Doing so will assist investigators to track patterns of criminal behavior and potentially identify suspects,” they said in a news release.
