LoJack: The Leader In Car Security

LoJack-equipped cars are recovered in 90% of reported thefts. Where car thieves can often find ways to disable other car security devices, LoJack equipment is hidden within the car (not even the owner knows where it is.) Smaller than other car security equipment, LoJack goes unnoticed by intruders. Thieves will not know they have stolen a LoJack-equipped car, until law enforcement officials track it down, recover the car, and make subsequent arrests.

The National Insurance Crime Bureau:
A Layered Vehicle Security Plan

A well-equipped car security system can go a long way to ensuring the safety of your car or truck. According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, there are four layers of protection that comprise well-thought out car security plan.

• Layer 1: Taking simple precautions such as locking doors, parking in well lit areas, and closing windows completely.
• Layer 2: Vehicle security alarm systems and anti-theft devices. This includes audible alarms, steering wheel locks, and theft deterrent decals.
• Layer 3: A car immobilizer system that requires smart keys and utilizes kill switches to prevent theft.
• Layer 4: The final layer of car security is a tracking device. According to the NICB, "the final layer is a tracking system that emits a signal to the police or monitoring service when the car is reported stolen. If your car has a tracking system and is stolen, it can oftentimes be recovered faster and with less damage.

The LoJack tracking system is an integral component of any car security plan. LoJack tracking is the most formidable line of defense against auto theft. Once the LoJack tracking system is put into action, local police can track the location of your car or truck, and recover the stolen automobile. LoJack is the only car security product that is fully integrated with both state and local law enforcement agencies.

Car Security

A lack of emphasis on car security results in the theft of over one million automobiles in the United States every year. To put it in perspective: an auto theft occurs every 25.3 seconds. The reality is; there is little we can do to stop car thieves from attempting to steal our cars and trucks. Even worse, most anti-theft alarm systems and car security products are easily breached by knowledgeable car thieves. Once bypassed, these devices leave the car owner helpless. Without witnesses, suspects, or leads to investigate, there is little law enforcement can do.

LoJack allows police to track the location of your car and recover it before it's too late. When the stolen car report is filed, a routine entry into the state computer database will automatically match the car's VIN number to its unique LoJack code. The car security tracking system hidden in the car or truck is instantly activated, and begins to emit an inaudible signal. Police can then track the signal to your car's location.
