LoJack: Working With Police To Recover
Your Vehicle
LoJack is the only tracking system or anti-theft device operated by state and local law enforcement agencies. LoJack supplies the mobile tracking computers that police departments use in recovering LoJack-equipped vehicles. Other services track the location of the car or truck themselves and then report its location to police.
The LoJack system is able to protect your vehicle at all times. All you need to do is report the car or truck stolen, and police begin to track it down.
Anti Theft Device
Many cars are not reported stolen for hours or even days after the incident occurs. With no witnesses, suspects, or leads to investigate, there is little hope of finding the automobile. In these cases, the anti-theft device is rendered useless, and of no help to the vehicle's owner. LoJack steps in where alarm systems and anti-theft devices fail to; after a theft occurs.
The automotive security industry is flooded with anti-theft devices that offer various methods of theft prevention. These products hope to deter thieves from successful auto theft. Discouragingly, even the top-of-the-line alarm systems and anti-theft devices are vulnerable in the hands of well-trained car thieves. Intruders are often able to bypass these products, and get away without a trace.
The LoJack Vehicle Recovery System
The LoJack system is hidden on your vehicle where thieves can't find it. Anti-theft devices used by other tracking services rely on a short, visible antenna which can be easily broken by car thieves. The LoJack equipment is small enough to be hidden in up to 20 places on your vehicle. Not even the owner knows its location.
LoJack can find your car anywhere. The LoJack signal can be traced through concrete walls, ceilings, and other barriers to locate your vehicle. The anti-theft device used by other services uses a satellite system, which requires an unobstructed line of sight between the antenna and orbiting GPS satellites.
The LoJack Vehicle Recovery System is the only tracking system operated directly by law enforcement. When your car is reported stolen, a routine entry into the state crime database will find a match between your vehicle's VIN number, and its unique LoJack code. The LoJack equipment located in your car is automatically triggered, and begins to emit an inaudible signal. Police can then track the signal to your car's location, and seize it from the would-be thieves.
