Key Blocking

As we approach the Christmas Period and may be tempted to leave shopping / parcels in the car, I thought that I had better repeat this recent article from my local paper.

It seems that there has been unexplained thefts from vans and cars parked in a local store car park. The owners have returned to find their vehicles unlocked, and goods and tools stolen.

CCTV however showed that once the owner had left the vehicle, a gang had come out of a parked up van. then had opened the victim's vehicle doors, and transferred the goods into the parked up van.

It is suspected that the gang had been lying in wait in the back of the van, and had used some type of frequency jammer to block the intended victim from locking their vehicles doors.

Lesson is, look back and make sure your car has locked as requested by key fob. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)
