Keyless Vehicle Security – Understanding Relay-Style Theft

How relay-style theft works, what protection your vehicle may already have and the extra security options worth considering.

What the risk is

Some keyless vehicles can be vulnerable to techniques intended to make the vehicle believe an authorised key is nearby. The exact risk and available protection vary by vehicle and key system.

Use the vehicle's security features

Follow the vehicle manufacturer's guidance for its particular keyless system. Some manufacturers use motion-sensing keys or provide settings that change passive-entry behaviour.

Add layers where appropriate

Physical deterrents, alarms, immobilisation and tracking can complement the factory system, but suitability is vehicle-specific. We can advise on options rather than claiming one device solves every theft method.
