Vehicle theft is the nation's number one property crime, with 1.2 million vehicles stolen, costing an estimated $8.2 billion, according to the most recent FBI Uniform Crime Reports (ca 2001). What's even more disconcerting is the fact that the vehicle recovery rate has dropped substantially from about 84% in early 1990 to a mere 62% in 2001*. If law enforcement is unable to recapture your assets for you, who will?

For the second year in a row, the conjoined municipalities of Phoenix/Mesa, AZ have the highest rate of stolen vehicles in the country. Amongst other crime deterrent measures, the City of Phoenix Police Department suggests, "...installing a tracking device in your vehicle to help recover it if it is stolen**".
