Theft
Vehicle
theft
is
big business, especially
in
some cities. Although your Pontiac has a
number of theft-deterrent features, we
know
that
nothing we put on
it
can
make
it impossible to steal. However, there are
ways
you
can
help.
Key
in
the
ignition:
If
you
walk away
from your
vehicle
with the keys inside,
it’s
an
easy
target
for
joy riders or
professional thieves
-
so
don’t
do
it.
When
you
park
your Pontiac and open
the driver’s door, you’ll hear a tone
reminding you
to
remove your key
from
the
ignition
and
take
it
with
you. Always
do this. Your steering wheel
will be
locked, and
so
will
your ignition. If you
have
an automatic transmission, taking
your
key
out
also locks your transmission.
And
remember to lock
the
doors.
