Though it may be impossible to make a car theftâ€"proof, it pays to be security conscious. If you encounter someone breaking into your vehicle, don‘t intervene. Call the police. Car parts often are worth more than the vehicle as a whole, so many professional car thieves take stolen vehicles to "chop shops" where they are dismantled. As a deterrent, police officials recommend etching Your life is worth more than your car. A better antiâ€"theft system includes an ignition, starter, or fuel cutoff to disable the engine. Some new cars feature this added protecâ€" tion, which temporarily incapacitates the car if a thief attempts to hotâ€"wire the ignition. Even sophisticated factory or dealerâ€"installed alarm systems carry no guarantee against theft. A loud alarm and flashing lights draw attenâ€" tion to a crime. But false alarms are commonplace, and many people have become desensitized. A thief may take an extra moment to silence the alarm and steal the car anyway. One relatively inexpensive deterrent is a bar lock that clamps onto the steering wheel to prevent it from turning. This highly visible device may discourage theft, but it‘s not foolproof. A wellâ€"equipped thief can cut through the steering wheel and easily remove the lock. Still, a resolute thief can break in, hotâ€"wire your car, and drive away in about 90 seconds. Making the vehicle appear more difficult and time consuming to steal could prompt a thief to pass it by. At night, park in wellâ€"lit areas. Keep valuables out of sight. Apply the parking brake and turn the wheels toward the curb to make a car harder to tow away. their investment. The first step is common sense; don‘t leave your car unlocked. A surprising number of stolen cars are practically given to thieves by careless owners who leave their keys in the ignition. Always take your keys with you. Every Chryslerâ€"built vehicle has driâ€" ver safety in mind. Specific safety feaâ€" tures are designedâ€"in to minimize the risks drivers may encounter, while othâ€" ers are made available optionally.
