Pickup trucks are primarily stolen using high-tech methods like relay attacks, key fob cloning, and hacking the OBD (on-board diagnostic) port to bypass immobilizers, often in under a minute. Organized criminal gangs frequently target popular models, such as Ford Ranger, Toyota Hilux, VW Amarok & Mercedes X-Class, for rapid export or to steal high-value tools stored in them.
​
-
Relay Attacks (Keyless Entry Theft): Thieves use electronic devices to pick up the signal from a key fob inside a house, amplifying it to trick the truck into unlocking and starting without the physical key.
-
OBD Port Cloning/Reprogramming: Criminals break a window or pick a lock, then plug a device into the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) port under the dashboard. They can reprogram the car's computer to accept a new, unauthorized key fob, allowing them to drive away.
-
"Scanner" Devices: Some thieves use devices to scan for the vehicle's unique security codes to unlock and start the truck.
-
Theft to Order/Export: Because of high demand, trucks are often stolen and immediately driven to containers for export or stripped for parts.
-
Theft of Components: Instead of the whole vehicle, thieves target specific parts like catalytic converters, alloy wheels, or side mirrors.
