Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some cities.
Although your vehicle has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on it
can
make
it impossible
to
steal. However, there are ways you
can help.
Key
in the Ignition
If
you leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
--
so
don’t do it.
With the ignition off and the driver’s door open, you’ll
hear a chime reminding you to remove your key from
the ignition and take
it
with you. Always
do
this. Your
steering wheel will be locked, and
so
will your ignition
and transaxle. And remember to lock the doors.
Parking
at
Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out
of
sight.
Put them in a storage area, or take them with you.
