BTT:


A friend's friend took me to get a 2002 Corolla somewhere on Ikorodu road. We made payments, got someone to get car papers and number plate for us. One of the dealer's boy's offered to help wash the car, and we headed to eat before everything is set as the car was to be taken to Warri same day. I locked the car and we went away with the key.

I deliberately kept my own car keys in the driver's seat in a pattern before our departure, having heard about this possibility before - and I told my friend I was checking and would ask before we go.

We came back to discover the car had been opened in our absence. We made a lot of noise and threats and collected the spare key.

I trust some. But I verify all.

I have made this point several times.

There are 3 ways to steal a modern car with immobilizer.
1. Spare or duplicate key made or kept by car dealer, mechanic or any crimanal friend who had access to the keys
2. Jail broken ECU
3. Gun point

Those ones that cars disappear in a twinkle of an eye is usually masterminded through the 1st.

Make I tell you.
My husband left his car Key in the car when he got to work. He called the gate men to help him out. From the drivers'seat window, they drag down one rubber, put a stick inside and push down a button on the door hand, all the doors opened. Omo, my husband fear e head.

To have rest of mind from car theft,simply make mercedes benz ur brand.do u know a mercedes cannot be opened the way ur husband's car was opened?the rods that controls the locks are behind the glass.so it cannot be accessed from outside,dunno if u understand what I mean,2ndly benz demand around here is low so thieves don't bother,cos dealers know if they buy a stolen benz,and put on shelf,the owner will soon come inspecting while it persists on the shelf.
Meanwhile their sucking keys cannot be easily compromised.
