DNA Solves the Crime—But Securing Keys Could've Stopped It

It’s a scene that’s becoming all too familiar in the dealership world: surveillance cameras catch thieves smashing through a showroom window using a stolen vehicle just to get their hands on another high-value car. In a recent case, two individuals broke into a dealership by ramming the front doors with a Camaro they had just broken into. Their target was a high-performance vehicle sitting inside the showroom.

‍

They didn’t get away with that particular car—the Camaro became stuck on the stairs—but they did manage to steal the keys to another vehicle on the lot. With those keys in hand, they drove off in a Dodge Challenger. The stolen car was later recovered, and investigators were able to identify a suspect through DNA left behind in the vehicle.

‍

While this incident ultimately led to arrests, the dealership was left with thousands of dollars in property damage, a vehicle loss, and a disrupted sense of security.

‍

How Could This Have Been Prevented?

While physical barriers like bollards and security cameras are important, they don't stop theft when the ultimate access point—the key—is left vulnerable. That’s where iSafe comes in.

‍

Our line of iSafe key security systems is designed to keep dealership keys protected, even in the event of a break-in. Here's how each of our models can help prevent theft like this from happening:

Got it! Here's a revised section that reflects those clarified differences:

Which iSafe System Is Right for You?

Don’t Leave Security to Chance

Theft is increasingly strategic, fast, and destructive. Once a thief has your keys, your vehicles become low-effort, high-value targets. iSafe turns that vulnerability into a fortress—with access control and complete accountability.
