Do You Own One of 2015's 10 Most Stolen Cars?
If you own a Honda Civic or Accord that was made in the 90's, I've got some bad news. Your car is one of the most heavily stolen models of all time, and last year was no exception. On Monday, the National Insurance Crime Bureau released their annual "Hot Wheels" list, a list of the top ten most stolen vehicles of the year.
Take a look and see if your car is on it. The number of cars stolen is in parentheses.
1. Honda Accord (52,244)
2. Honda Civic (49,430)
3. Ford Pickup (Full Size) (29,396)
4. Chevrolet Pickup (Full Size) (27,771)
5. Toyota Camry (15,466)
6. Dodge Pickup, Full Size (11,212)
7. Toyota Corolla (10,547)
8. Nissan Altima (10,374)
9. Dodge Caravan (9,798)
10. Chevrolet Impala (9,225)
The NICB has also released an interactive map that shows the top ten stolen cars by state. Go and check if your car is one of them.
Of course just because these cars are the most frequently stolen doesn't mean that criminals go out of their way to nab these specifically; there are just a lot of them out there. Your Honda Accord is probably not the ideal steal if it's parked in a lot full of McLarens. Still, don't forget to lock your doors.
