Then you had the slide hammer/dent puller to remove the lock cylinder. A little freon would chill the lock to make it more easily shatter. Once the lock cylinder was removed, a screwdriver started the car and off you went. The vats key from GM slowed down the process a little until tools were made to bypass this.

@@boxoffisa It depends on how it's implemented. Honda, for example, did an absolutely abysmal job and Hondas are incredibly easy to steal because they didn't implement even basic security practices with their FOBs. Others are more difficult. Two-factor would make it much harder still. For example, Tesla allows you to add a PIN in order to drive the car, enter the glove box, change security settings, etc. Just requiring both the fob and a PIN or phone Bluetooth connection while making it difficult to just add keys via the ODB II would go a long way. A lot of car companies give security a low priority. Maybe that's why Teslas are stolen far less than most other brands because they actually take security seriously and employ people to try and break it and offer rewards to people who find holes. In addition, at least with Tesla, I can easily track my car and do things via my phone such as limit the top speed or put it in "valet mode". Tesla's insurance also specifically covers the car being hacked. I've never seen any other insurance policy cover this.

[@shuki1]

You know who pays for all of this? Everyone who gets theft insurance. Since the insurance companies can estimate how many cars will be stolen, that is factored into everyone else's premium in the first place. So the insurance companies don't really care, ultimately they always need to profit and so they can keep offering the service.

[@HeyHowsMyDriving]

Unfair. I hope there will be like a vigilante who will stop those car theives

[@shuki1]

@G. Holman the thing that would really be fair is if the insurance premiums would be based much more closely to the rate of those cars being stolen and not as they are lightly connected now. If you want to buy that Lexus SUV, and 1 in ten are stolen, then the insurance should go through the roof so that people would think twice before buying one AND then perhaps logic says the manufacturer would need to increase the security features to bring that premium back to normal. A few hundred $$ a year extra for Lexus owners on insurance is not going to decrease sales. A few thousand extra will, instead of making all car owners pay into the pool.

[@MsNoPixel]

@@HeyHowsMyDriving we need the show “bait car” back LOL

What you're pointing to is the reason nobody cares. The car companies don't care because they sell more replacement cars. The insurance companies don't care because the loss rate gets them approval from the insurance commissions to raise the rates higher.

If Canadian government mandates a 5 - 10 days store-and-wait period in an authorized space where cars will physically wait before being loaded and the same is listed on a public site so it can be cross-checked against reported cars, the whole thing will come to an end in a day.
