Force vehicle manufacturers to address new vehicle security.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Many new vehicles are fitted with inadequate security that manufacturers know is vulnerable. People buy new cars with alarm systems believing their car will be safe. Some of the biggest manufacturers are also the most stolen. Manufacturers make billions from car sales. They can help if they want to.

Top 10 most stolen and recovered cars in 2017
1. Mercedes-Benz C-Class
2. BMW X5
3. Range Rover Sport
4. Mercedes-Benz E-Class
5. BMW 3 Series
6. Land Rover Discovery
7. Range Rover Autobiography
8. BMW M3
9. VW Golf
10. Audi RS4

Andy Barrs, Head of Police Liaison at TRACKER says, “It’s fair to say that criminals continued to stay one step ahead of manufacturers in 2017.

Manufacturers make Billions from cars sales and many people feel they should put more into combating this huge problem.
