In fact, bad guys often target removable or high-value parts.

Rearview mirror

This is one of the most easily stolen parts of a car because it is easy to get and has high value. Bad guys can break or remove the rearview mirror with their hands without any tools.

Even in popular cars, exterior mirrors are integrated with many technologies, making their value higher. Therefore, mirror theft is becoming more and more common.

To avoid theft, many car owners add anti-theft steel bars to their rearview mirrors. In addition, car owners should also park in open spaces with security guards to ensure safety.

Exhaust Gas Neutralization System

The catalytic converter is also one of the most vulnerable components in a car because it contains many precious metals such as palladium, platinum and rhodium. Moreover, the catalytic converter is located in the body of the exhaust pipe, exposed to the outside, so it is vulnerable to theft.

Battery

The battery is located under the hood and can be easily removed by simply unscrewing the battery and frame. Therefore, the battery is also an easily stolen part of the car.

To prevent car theft, do not park your car on the street for a long time, in places with few people, or use an anti-theft dash cam on your car.

Lighting

Lighting is increasingly modernized, integrating advanced technology, ensuring safety when moving on dimly lit roads. This makes the price of lighting very high. Therefore, lighting is also a bargain for thieves.

Wheel

Wheels are not easy to remove, requiring a lot of tools, but they are also easy to steal because they do not require breaking into the car. For professional thieves, it only takes a few minutes to remove a wheel.

Thieves often disassemble tires and wheel rims and sell them separately for high profits.

According to experts, parking with the wheels turned at a 45-degree angle will make it more difficult to open the wheel nuts, especially when parked on the side of the road. In addition, car owners can also use wheel locking screws to prevent thieves.

Pickup truck tailgate

On some pickup trucks, the rear doors can be easily removed, which is why thieves target the rear doors of pickup trucks.

In addition, there are many parts on the car that are at risk of being stolen such as catalytic converters, rear cameras... Car owners should therefore pay attention to parking spots to ensure safety.
