LoJack Stolen Vehicle Recovery System

The LoJack Stolen Vehicle Recovery System continues to be effective where your car alarm system cannot; after an auto theft takes place. The LoJack tracking system installed on your vehicle can be used by police to track its location, and recover it from the would-be thieves.

When your car is reported stolen, a routine entry into the state computer system will match the vehicle's VIN number with its unique LoJack code. A small radio transceiver hidden on the car is automatically activated, emitting an inaudible signal. Local police can then track the signal, and track down your vehicle.

No other vehicle recovery unit or car alarm system is used by law enforcement agencies across the country and around the world to recover stolen vehicles. In fact, LoJack actually supplies law enforcement authorities with mobile tracking computers with which police use to track the stolen cars.

The facts about car alarm systems

A car is stolen every 25.3 seconds in the United States, adding up to over one million cases of auto theft each year. Vehicle theft has become the nation's #1 property crime, costing over 8.4 billion dollars a year. Many car owners rely on car alarm systems to protect their vehicles from criminals. Unfortunately, even the most sophisticated car alarm systems are not enough to prevent auto theft. Car thieves who are well-trained in exposing the vulnerabilities of auto security are often able to bypass these top-of-the-line car alarm systems, and get away with the car or truck.

Even the best car alarm systems fall short trying to consistently protect your vehicle from harm. At the same time there are limits to what law enforcement can do to keep our cars safe from unwanted intruders. LoJack provides a way to protect our cars and trucks, even in cases where car thieves are able to manipulate anti-theft devices and car alarm systems.
