    In Toronto, the Police Services advise the population to be safe and respectful to the theives. They have recently updated their advice from leaving the key fobs close to your front door and now ask you leave the doors to your car unlocked. They ask you to keep the engine running with the Heater on since it is still colder outside.
    TPS asks you to leave your proof of car insurance and registration in your glove compartment. They also ask that you make sure you have a full tank of gas or full charge in an electric vehicle.
    TPS asks that you leave a history of the car in your glove box.
    To be a considerate Canadian, TPS asks you to leave a gift card worth $500 and a Tim Hortons Card on the front seat.
    Remember, this is a new industry, creating jobs so the government supports all the help we can give the thieves.

    The single best thing auto makers can do is to let owners turn off the hands free operation for the door locks. In other words, you would have to use the buttons on the remote to remotely unlock the vehicle. Some already offer that, but all should have that option. It's not foolproof, someone could intercept the signal if they were nearby when you push the button, but it would still be a big improvement over the hands free system.

    • @joshm3342

      Please tell us which automakers offer this option. Toyota Camry 2021 has a way to turn it off, but you need to do it each time you lock the car.

    I am glad to see that you have listed the "Club". Just because it is extremely "low tech" does not mean it is ineffective against most car thefts. The "Club" is an add-on highly visible protective device that will discourage a number of individuals from trying to steal your car. There is no device nor method that is 100% perfect against a car being stolen if the thief has the means, motive and opportunity to do so. I bought the "Club" in 1996 after witnessing a classmate's car being stolen. So far none of my cars have been stolen since using the "Club". Another, even better, method I saw being used to deter car theft was the removal of the steeling wheel. This method will overcome nearly all attempts by car thieves. What thief is going to carry a steering wheel of the car he wishes to steal?

    Unfortunately in many big cities with high crime rates, when an arrest is made, the court systems will usually treat an auto theft arrest as the equivalent of a shoplifter. Nothing more than probation or a slap on the wrist especially in the case of a juvenile. If restitution is ordered, more than likely the victim whose vehicle was damaged will likely never see a dime from the thief. Absolutely nothing to deter the criminal from going out and stealing again.

Get caught with a firearm or knife stealing a vehicle, no bail sit in jail till trial and a mandatory 5-year sentence. Break into a person's house to get the car keys again no bail mandatory 5 years in jail. Second offence higher jail time.Same thing for carjacking. Now the thieves if caught one day out on bail the next day and they go back to stealing cars. Canada is soft on crime and the thieves know it.

    I bought a new Crosstrek 6-speed.
    When a friend had to take a road test to reinstate her long-lapsed license, the license examiner claimed never to have seen a manual transmission, that she didn't know manuals exist.
    I had a friend, now passed away, who regularly left the keys in his three-on-the-tree Dodge Aspen.
    Of course, my Studebaker Commander had the starter button hidden under the clutch pedal.

    My daily driver is a 21 year old Buick & my truck is a 27 year old Dodge 3/4 ton 4X4. I doubt that since I live in Alberta in a county that has a population density of .6 persons per square km, & that my nearest neighbor is 3 miles away, that neither of my vehicles are likely to be stolen.

They are also fairly easy to mod and a lot have annoying things like fuel pump bypass switches in the oddest places.

    Auto theft is a huge problem since the pandemic, and insurance premiums put new car ownership out of reach for some people.

    Banning hacking devices is literally impossible since they're easy to make from parts (crooks can just pay others to make them), and they are often necessary for general troubleshooting and IT work... so it's like trying yo ban wrenches... not a good move. And investing in a failed project is just throwing money down the drain. Bail reform and giving the police orders to stop criminals rather than hand out as many tickets as possible on the other hand, those would put a dent in it.

Down here in Miami I actually have a secret carjacking switch on the car where where if anyone tries to carjack the vehicle by simply activating the switch the fuel pump will shut down in approximately 3 minutes giving me a chance to get to safety. Older Honda and toyotas are are big business for the chop shops down here because the car's last so long and parts can be pretty expensive.

    Be careful not to group all cars (various versions/options) within a timeframe. My Hyundai was one of the included years, but it’s not the version involved (they were going after keyed ones, not push start). Also…some have had engine issues, the engine on my 2016 is also not one of the included issues. Touted mechanic channels on YT have also over generalized and not provided appropriate details. When you generalize, everyone just assumes all versions were involved during that time frame instead of researching things for themselves. I just really hate when people generalize. It does no good for consumers that have the cars and consumers looking to buy the cars. You need to be more specific. There are so many versions of each in each year.
    Also, any social influencer needs to be jailed when they promote crime. The more time goes on, the more evil people seem to get. I’m always grateful for the handful of good ones still around.

    I've personally proven dealership service departments WRONG many many many times in the past. And ANY reputable shop will prove that what they Installed is not the cause of the vehicle fault. And if it WAS the cause of the vehicle fault they will take care of it. But dealers can NOT just void your warranty. They can try though and they will try
