how do i stop someone from stealing my car?

Answer 1

You can't stop a determined thief, but you can take measures to stop others and help find it. Use secret switches and lojack :)

I hooked a loud horn to my door to go off when it was opened :)

Answer 2

Cut the tires, drain the gas, and park it in your garage, on its back. Even so... The rule is: "If they want it bad enough, they'll get it."
The trick is to make your ride as uninviting to a thief as possible. Park it in a well lighted area. Put an alarm in it. Even the dummie blinking red led will deter. A wheel club. Warning stickers about the stereo being uninstall disabled, etc. and keep all valuables OUT OF SIGHT. Even if they don't steal the car, they'll break in to steal the stuff IN it.

Answer 3

Well, there's the direct approach. "Excuse me sir, please don't steal my car." Works best if you have a loaded .357 in your hand at the time.

In the garage, with the door locked is a good determent. Alarm systems don't do a whole lot of good, except the higher priced ones that won't let the car start. But no matter what you do, if someone wants it bad enough, it will vanish. Lo Jack system will find it after the fact. Maybe.

Answer 4

A Small Switch [Available @ Most Electrical stores] 12Volt:5 Amp Max.
Disconnect The Battery.....Find The Low-tension Wire th@ goes to The Distributer: Break the wire [Somewhere within your Vehicle eg...Under the Dasboard and wire the switch in series]
Mount the swith somewhere You only know [Under the Drivers side seat,glove compartment,boot,] & "Bingo"...You got your own security disable on Park th@s NOT in The Security Catalogue for all The Car thieves to Study.

Answer 5

Always lock the doors. And get an alarm system. You know, one of the cool ones from RoboCop that shoots flames at any potential thief. That would be cool!

Answer 6

if they want it bad enough, they'll find a way to steal it 99% of the time. u could jerry rig a switch that will prevent the coil from firing. if ya dont have a coil, ya dont get a spark. no spark, no runnin engine.

Answer 7

Ask them politely to step away from the car.

Answer 8

years ago when i got my 1989 Dodge omni stolen they told me you can try puting some stuff on the car but if they want it they will get the car any way or how sorry
but it's the truth

Answer 9

Drive a hyundai...

But short of something drastic like that, park in well lighted areas or locked garage, always lock it, and keep valuables out of sight.

Answer 10

get an alarm and a tracking device. Don't leave your car in places that are bad, like bad neighborhoods and if you're going to do it, don't do it during the night.
