Why You May Want To Consider Theft Protection For Your New Car
You've got your brand new car and you're loving it, but what if someone just walked up one day and stole it right out of your driveway? You would be angry and frustrated, and for all of the right reasons. So, the goal is to make sure that you can have the proper protection in place so that if this worst case scenario does happen, you can keep yourself covered as well as your car. The answer to your theft protection needs is OwnerShield.
What is OwnerShield?
This is a protection policy for your car that consists of several top notch components to make sure that everything's protected as it should be. Firstly, OwnerShield will put permanent etching with a VIN code on every major part of your car that is impossible to get off, making sure that thieves are not able to resell any parts that they strip from your car. Additionally, once your vehicle is reported stolen, OwnerShield will be able to get all of the proper information to the authorities faster than you would be able to, so your car has a better chance at being recovered. If, in the event it isn't found, OwnerShield will even give you up to $2,500 towards a new vehicle purchase.
Why bother?
Maybe you are reading this and thinking “what's the point?”. The thing is, theft is more and more common these days, as thieves are getting smarter and trickier, making theft more common and easier to do even to the highest quality cars. Smart thieves will try to do “Vin switching” where different car parts will be combined together and resold to people under the table, making it harder to trace. Additionally, some cars are smuggled out of the country or simple scrapped for metal and other parts. Thieves move fast, have a network, and can make your car disappear faster than you might be able to imagine.
This is a low cost, tried and tested protection plan that can give you the comfort and peace of mind that you need to make sure that you are covered. There are other alarms and fancy options that you can put in your car, but the reality of the situation is that tech-thieves are going to be able to confuse and disable these systems easily, leaving you at their mercy. When you look at something as “basic” as OwnerShield, you'll see that good, old-fashioned VIN ID tags on all major parts is going to do a better job that even the newest options on the market.
No one wants to think about their car getting stolen, but the reality is that auto theft rates continue to go up each year, and you should think long and hard about the option of getting a reliable and affordable protection plan for your new car to make sure that you can always do your part in keeping it (and your financial investment) safe for the long term.
