While push-start cars offer convenience, their keyless entry system can raise security concerns. The answer? Yes, push-start cars can be stolen, but there are ways to make them more secure.
Traditional methods like breaking a window still exist, but thieves are increasingly using high-tech methods like:
- Relay attacks: Thieves use devices to amplify and relay the key fob’s signal from outside the house to an accomplice near the car, tricking it into unlocking and starting.
- Signal jamming: Devices emitting radio waves can block the fob’s signal, preventing the owner from locking or unlocking the car.
Here’s how to safeguard your push-start car:
- Store fobs in signal-blocking pouches.
- **Park in well-lit areas with CCTV.
- Consider disabling keyless entry when parked at home.
- Invest in additional security measures like steering wheel locks or GPS trackers.
By staying informed and taking precautions, you can deter theft and enjoy the ease of push-start technology with peace of mind.
Remember, staying vigilant and layering security measures are key to protecting your vehicle.
