The Taskforce for Regional Auto theft Prevention (TRAP) would like to inform the public, who own early 1990 model year Honda Accords & Civics, about the high rate of thefts of these types of vehicles.The 1990’s Honda Accords & Civics have consistently ranked #1 as the most stolen vehicle in Los Angeles County, throughout the State of California, and the nation. This ranking is due in part to the lack of built in anti-theft technology in these older model vehicles versus new vehicles. TRAP would like to inform owners of these types of vehicles on what preventative measures they can take to deter a theft;
- Consider installing an anti-theft device such as an alarm system, or GPS tracking device
- Utilize a steering wheel lock or other owner applied anti-theft device
- If feasible, keep your vehicle in your driveway or garage to deter a possibletheft
- Place anti-theft stickers on the windows
- If your Honda is stolen, notify law enforcement immediately to report it
