Auto theft is considered a 'national crisis' in Canada, with drivers investing in anti-theft devices to prevent their vehicles from being stolen. In 2016, CBC Marketplace got a look at how easy it is for car thieves to break into cars using tools sold online. We also visited West Africa in 2022 and found stolen cars for sale with Canadian licence plates.
00:00 - Can a hacker pop the lock on this Cadillac?
02:15 - Using tools made for a locksmith
03:56 - Finding Canadian licence plates in West Africa
04:45 - Her Lexus was stolen from her home

It is a matter of time and skill. A vehicle that requires a physical key for ignition takes time and mechanical skill to steal without triggering the anti-theft alarm. A vehicle with an accessible and mimicable FOB, plus a push button start, and wildly available tools to do just that, will be more efficient to steal.

if you are going to do that, you'd be better off taking the starter motor/fuel pump relay out of the car (should be located behind a kickpanel in the driver side), just as time consuming with the benefit of the theif having to diagnose the problem befor driving away. 99% of the time, they won't figure it out. steering locks are not hard to break, a bit of brute force, and they usually collapse fairly quickly. I had to remove my own when I snapped the key, and I was surprised how little effort it took.

I’ve been a mechanic for 45 years, back when I started I had a good friend with lock out kit who was a tow truck driver. These “slim Jim’s” were not readily available to everyone, then they were. Manufacturers of cars made using then more difficult but it was a case of practice makes perfect. Funny thing with todays cars all you need is something to pry the window a bit and a long rod. All the extra protection around the lock and latch mechanism is now mute. The age of computers has fast bypassed all manufacturers attempts of anti-theft. My tow truck buddy and I , not techy but mechanically inclined could by pass door locks , now computer hackers bypass the whole lock and ignition systems. We would often comment those hackers were disgruntled engineers that invented the systems them designed a boot leg version to sell to thieves.

Journeymen mechanic here, the old cars you can literally steal, with a good thief, in less than 2 minites. The key simply moved a geared rail with contacts that will operate all power functions on your ignition, there were some models starting from the 90s to the 2000s that had a specific resistor figure that had to be seen, key pass, so even though the ignition lock would turn, the immobilizer would not allow the car to start.

"Car makers are working on it". Are they? First, it costs them a lot of money to develop new anti-theft systems (not worth it for them). Second, if the stolen car is a lease or a finance, which it almost always is going to be, since it has full coverage, the car manufacturer gets paid out by the insurance company and the owner ends up buying another new vehicle. Win-win for the car manufacturer.

I was an installer for under the MPIC immobilizer program for 6 years. Honestly the more tech you add, the easier it is. I have a 72 Mustang with some anitheft stuff I added and Honestly would say it works better lol. I've jhad the car since I was 16 and I'm 50 now. I know how to bypass lots of stuff, i don't tell people how, but here's what these people don't tell you. The idea of theft deterrents is to deter and add time needed to take the item, not to make it impossible to steal. Ask the manufacturer or the trainer's. When I took my course, they all said it was to make it more difficult, but not to say impossible and hopefully the thieves move on to an easier target, so that would be the next car, now is that car your car, probably lol. Thieves are opportunist and look for the easiest score. Don't leave anything in your vehicle.

People don't seem to realize that it was impossible to steal the cars from 15-20 years ago. All of the new "technology" put into cars was done simply to revive the auto theft industry and keep police employed. Auto theft ended in the early 2000's and now it's back again..... because the government needed to have it back again.

Thank You for the Tutorial! 😍 1. No need to go to LA for a tutorial. Y'all should have came to South Shore Montreal or Brampton. 2. Honda CRVs are the top stolen cars in Canada right now. People keep buying them. Honda isn't doing much to stop this (>2023 have patched this). 3. Push to Start SUVs are the easiest. A TAG sticker is an easy deterrent. So is an age of >10 years and a manual transmission. 4. The risk/reward ratio is favourable, as the cops target law abiding citizens who do 120 kmh instead of 119, gamble with the parking signs, and forget their doors unlocked. The penalties aren't severe enough for theives who usually a) One Picks the Lock and leaves the car unlocked b) Another comes and plugs in the OBDII port a tablet running a legitimate entreprise account c) another steals the plate of a matching car d) the car is used for crime jobs where the actual owner is held liable (like that Mall Drive) e) after the crime, the car gets burned, or stripped for parts f) A Quebec car arrives in Nigeria. We need the police to start doing their job again!

around here its usually highschoolers that take a car for a joy ride then leave it somewhere not too far away and the owner gets it back a few days later. I think the lower barrier to entry actually made it so the cars wind up returned in better condition. When my neighbor's kia got stolen the police told him "its because its a kia." and it was found a mile away a few days later. Now near the city generic white cargo vans get stolen and they do not return, but the rudimentary models they target usually have roll up windows

The locksmith requires access to the car's OBD2 port to reprogram the PATS. Therefore, you need to break in the vehicle to access & have a key fob. Plus it doesn't take 5 secs to reprogram via the scan tool. The first hacker is more potent as it can code grab and replicate however you need to press the key fob to activate

Avoid buying the top five most stolen makes in Canada: Acura/Honda, Lexus/Toyota, Jeep/Dodge, Land Rover and Ford. Next, use a steering wheel club lock. And if you can, stick to older vehicles with physical, metal ignition keys - you can still get nice VWs, Nissan, Subarus, GM and others from 2018 or so thus equipped. This will decrease the odds of your car being stolen. Bonus points if you drive a manual transmission. For example, no one in Africa wants your 2017 Mitsubishi RVR with 2wd and manual shift.

The two main thing people need to do is: a) Start hitting the unlock button (not trust the keyless system), and make sure to look to the car's flashers to confirm it was actually locked; and b) Foil a shoe box with aluminum foil, both on the inside and out, and place your car's key fob inside that shoe box whenever you arrive home, in order for the RF (Radio Frequency) signal to not propagate, and be expanded by criminals, in order to fly off with your car from your driveway. Please, be more careful. This way, we all can (a) be safer and less stressed, and (b) bring the insurance premiums down to everyone.

I've got a 1990 Mitsub. wagon. Never lock it. Had it 17 years, come July. Never broken down. Have done serious travelling in Oz, from Cairns to Hobart. Can do 140 ks with a full load on board for passing. Cruises at 110ks no dramas; like it's not even trying @ 2000 rpm. Still get the same economy I did in '07. 12 lts per 100ks around town. 9.5 on a trip. Wait for this: the head has never been off since I've owned it. Doesn't blow smoke. Uses about 200mls of oil every two or three months. Not an oil leak to be seen. Keep your new 'jelly bean' cars; I'm not the slightest bit interested! Paid $400 for it. $7K in maintainence in 17 years. Go figure?!

There should be class action suits agains Automakers. May be Insurance providers too. Its good business for automakers as victims will have to purchase another car. Insurance providers increase premiums to maintain profits. Consumers are the ones who lose big time as the 1-2 year old car has depreciated. 5 years minimum for stealing a car, 10 years for car jacking. 1 year additional per car, (if you are the brains of the activity you get 5+ number of cars). If car thefts are reduced, automanufacturers and Insurance Providers should foot the bill for prisons.

It makes it look like all you need is a magic box and in a few seconds be driving away. In a modern car and that simply is not true. Unless it is a kia/hyundia then you can go old school and rip the ignition out and start it.
