In this Car Coach Reports video, Lauren Fix exposes the alarming surge in high-tech car thefts across America, where organized rings use portable devices like the Autel Maxim KM100 to reprogram a vehicle's computer and add a new key fob in about 60 seconds—no forced entry, no alarms, no original keys needed—allowing thieves to silently drive off; she details a recent D.C.-area federal indictment of an international ring shipping stolen cars (Corvettes, Camaros, Civics, etc.) overseas after altering VINs and plates, warns of vulnerabilities in modern keyless systems, and urges old-school deterrents like steering wheel locks and Faraday bags while calling on automakers for better security.
