Why This Matters More With Modern Cars
Older vehicles are less affected because:
- They use physical keys
- They lack continuous wireless communication
Modern vehicles with:
- Keyless entry
- Push-button ignition
- Proximity sensors
are more vulnerable to signal relay attacks.
Luxury brands are especially targeted because they are:
- High-value
- Often parked overnight
- Easy to resell or dismantle
Why Thieves Target Homes, Not Parking Lots
Most relay thefts happen at night.
Why?
Because:
- Keys are often stored near doors
- Signals are easy to detect through walls
- Owners are asleep and unaware
Your car doesn’t need to be nearby. Thieves only need your key’s signal.
