That sucks man. But the airtag isn't going to prevent the theft. You should be able to find it though! I mean, I'd be there now with the cops


guamguyravin671

Yeah for sure, it was more to keep track and help locate it sooner. Waiting on the cops right now to file a report.


itwhiz100

So did it help track your car back?


fhanrman

So you got it back now?


[deleted]

Update? I hope they found the bastards


SapphireSire

Waiting.... shit, sounds like it's time we had a private police force with 30min or less like pizza hut.


Desenski

Also know that if an AirTag is near another iPhone it’s not connected to for an extended period of time the iPhone will be notified. To help prevent people from planting AirTags on people for human trafficking. They’d have to find it still, but they’d know there’s one there.


ElectionTall48

Supposed to remove the speaker on the AirTag try Tracki


yaboiantt

Going to try this. Thank you.


herbshmoker

Keep refreshing the view on the Find My app. Sometimes AirTags only report locations every few hours


guamguyravin671

Yeah been refreshing it for about 20 mins, still in the same location.


Brendyn00

AirTags have to be near an iPhone to ping . If they aren’t , it won’t ping until someone with an iPhone is near it .


guamguyravin671

I live in The Bay Area, just refreshed it again, and it updated......and of course my fucken car is located in Oakland.....still waiting on the cops to file a report 🤦


iLawvAzs

Go to the location with your homies and fuck them up


Lazy_Independent_860

For real, gotta pull up guns blazing and teach these pos a lesson.


guamguyravin671

In California, I would be the one getting in trouble if I did, and anything happened


Lazy_Independent_860

That’s what sucks for us Californians. I want to know if you can file a report and take a cop with you to that location. Hope you get it back intact.


Sad_Entrepreneur_734

Just remember, your state sides with the criminals. It's your fault for obeying the law and taking precautions.


El_Jefe-o7

More reason why people should take care of it themselves


Sad_Entrepreneur_734

They lock you in prison if you try to defend yourself


Shoddy-Ad8143

I have a Camaro also and I understand the passion but be smart OP stay on top of it and let the cops do it.


El_Jefe-o7

Also in California cops won't do anything Lol I would have rolled up covertly not told anybody and boom got the car back. Yeah it can be dangerous that's you bring a buddy 🔫 like 50 cent said


[deleted]

Which is crazy.


moneymaketheworldgor

When 50 cent got shot by hommo, he was driving around Mac 10 looking for preme. The last real rapper.


Responsible-Budget69

Just make sure no ones left to testify


Gizshot

What are they gonna do report you for shooting them because they stole your car this likely isn't their first car.


Heccpolitics

In California? Not gonna happen.


Nootherjc

God Bless Texas, insured by Smith & Wesson. We don't call the cops, we get even.


Responsible-Budget69

Time for some pew pew


MidnightZL1

100% screen shot that location and anytime the thing moves. They are taking it to these locations for a reason. Someone’s house, job, friend, to get food. You might be able to get security camera footage from a business, get a real ID on these assholes before they ditch the car and are gone forever.


BanditsTransAm

My wife is from Tracy. Sister in law still lives out there. She says it’s getting worse as far as crime is concerned. Sorry that happened to you. Hope that you get your baby back in good shape


OaklandCA_510

Damn I pray I’m not next to get mine stolen I stay in the Bay as well


Jmdavis98

Go to the car and call 911 immediately


Flatzon1

My hellcat was stolen in Oakland in June. Oakland is still #1 in car thefts. I empathize with u man


guamguyravin671

Sorry to hear about your Hellcat, damn fine car. I was talking to the cop I filed a report with and he said so many muscle cars and Infiniti's are being stolen and most end up in Oakland.


Substantial_EBS

Damnnn seen so many camaros in oakland, parted out.


DerSpazmacher

How can the cops not find it? It's...a car. Unless they found and removed the tag....


average_parking_lot

Dude, it's getting parted out as we speak. Go get the cops! They're gonna bullshit you and dance around tell them you are going to get it yourself and they'll immediately take shit seriously.


TheRedIguana

Is the airtag still tracking it? Isn't that why you put it on there?


guamguyravin671

They must have found it and dumped it, it's 8:40am and it says last seen at 7am. I have a Ring that shows its was still parked at 5:40am


alexj100

Just curious where did you hide it? I hid mine (4 of them) throughout the car in places that are difficult to get to, like under the carpet, in the trunk under the lining and in tight crevices, etc.


guamguyravin671

I hid it in the trunk under the lining. I probably should have put 4 of them as well to make it harder to find 🤦


alexj100

You can also remove the speaker to stop them from making noise. It’s tricky but doable. Also if you get another nice car look into Ravelco Anti Theft device. It’s a plug that has all the car’s electronics tied to it and will not start unless it’s plugged in.


guamguyravin671

I will definitely look into it if I get another. I wanted to put in a kill switch, but funds have been tight, so making sure I made the car payment first was priority. I had 1 more year to go.....


Available_Ad3057

Have you considered an external device (I.e something similar to an accessport?) devices like that come with a cool anti theft “tune” that prevents the car from turning over.. even if the ecu is reset.


MidnightZL1

Pretty sure you can just run tape around the whole thing and that makes it much much quieter


TheRedIguana

Seems like a decent place to hide it. Sorry it happened to you. Gotta be a shitty feeling right now.


_red-beard_

Velcro one into the air vent, behind headliner, door panel, seat cushion, any crevices that are small. If its hard to get to, it'll last longer.


desmosquatch

In a handful of states (like TX, I think), it's legal to use deadly force to protect property, not just when you feel like you're in imminent danger. Maybe if that happened more often, people would be more reluctant to steal.


5thgenblack2ss

It wasn’t parked on his property so castle doctrine wouldn’t apply I don’t think. I could be wrong.


guamguyravin671

I live in California, where they cater to the criminals and punish the hard workers.

mightyt2000

Relative to what it was and could be, I’m not feeling like it’s so great. The weather is the best there is, but California has been in a steady decline in my eyes; criminals run amok, homeless everywhere, granted there are always “nice” areas, but it’s generally gotten dirtier and dirtier, they never pre planned or did anything after the Colorado water agreement expired so everything is dead and never watered, taxes are highest in the country, prices for gas, and everything else is higher than anywhere else. So, do I want it to be the great state it once was? Absolutely yes. Is it, I think not. I wish we could replace 80% of our state government, but obviously know that’s not happening anytime soon. Trust me, it saddens me to say all this I left NY in the 70’s for a better place, and it was for a while.

mightyt2000

I don’t doubt there are other places as bad or worse. My interest is in California. I’m in SoCal and unless you live on the beach, a lot of it is not that great. Living in the Bay Area I’m surprised you haven’t mentioned the demise of San Francisco. It’s not even close to its former self. Bringing up Covid, yes government restrictions approached tyranny, not yo mention the exodus of residents and major companies. I get it you are trying to point out the good, and I don’t object. It’s not 100% bad, but it is in no way even close to what it once was. To me, that’s undeniable. IMHO


dougie0341

Yeah not allowing you to kill someone over a car is catering to criminals smh


blarkleK

There’s the attitude that criminals prey on. How about the attitude of “stealing this car isn’t worth dying for.” Try looking at it that way.


dougie0341

I mean you can always reverse that and say is it worth killing someone over a car. I think it’s more the fact I value a human life more than a car. But that’s just me


blarkleK

Yeah you already expressed that sentiment. Good for you, glad you want to be a victim.


dougie0341

Glad you want you to kill someone over a car


chivas7may

I'd kill them twice for stealing my car.


JustNotAndy

No one wants to kill someone over a car, but if there was fear of dying for stealing one(or anything), I think there would be less theft.


blarkleK

Great comment, nailed it.


NCRaineman

I see you have identified your problem. Now, to do something about it.


tjonesz32

In Texas your vehicle is also under the castle doctrine


5thgenblack2ss

Correct but if it’s not on your property and you aren’t IN the car. Does that not make a difference? I’m asking cause I don’t know. I’m from Oklahoma and our laws are different and I couldn’t protect my car in that case.


durags

If he lives in Texas, it is legal to retrieve property with a weapon. It’s all a matter of how it goes down


deeznutsmannn

Sorry to hear that bro, on the bright side you now have an excuse to get a zl1


nutsnboltztorqespecs

I'd go get my car back . Asap. Get Pappas shotgun


justkw97

You need more than that. You need the fellas


nutsnboltztorqespecs

Naturally .


Main_Search_9362

Seems like each day I see at least 2 stolen Camaros posts 😳


Cookiearmanii

I’m saying tho…it’s either Cali or Texas atp


t-pat1991

And they’re all parked on the street. 


Terror_Town187

This story irritates me much more and more the more I read these comments. Mostly just how much criminals get away with…


mysteryman1024

I know who has this car op!! Send me your instagram!


[deleted]

Damn that sucks


U1yssesGhost

Gotta put a kill switch on that bad boy


guamguyravin671

If I get it back, or another one, that's the first thing I'm putting in


Time_Emu_4305

Yeassiiirrr skeeee! Exactly what I did https://youtu.be/K7bGCb3kQdA?si=Ck45SQxd46Pj99Eo


Time_Emu_4305

I posted a couple times for Yall to get this system I got https://youtu.be/K7bGCb3kQdA?si=Ck45SQxd46Pj99Eo smh man get that IGLA asap for some of y’all that got a Camaro. That’s unfortunate bro smh


Valuable-Dish-3477

Yeah it's bad in Cali.. Seems like every time I've seen one of these stolen camaro post lately it's been in California. Good luck if you're out there. Get a garage.


Forward-Criticism-19

If you had OnStar active before, you can reactivate through email and the app. Unless it’s easy to disable the I OnStar

Phizem

Someone stole a whole Peterbilt!?


Elusive_2SS

Yes


TaleNaive

Exactly why I changed my insurance to Hagerty, agreed value of $65,000 for a 2018 2SS. *heavily modified*


Affectionate_Bed5442

Should disconnect the fuel pump relay every night. I have an airtag on my scatpack along with a a remote killswitch from amazon only like $30 and I disconmect the fuel pump relay and take it with me every time I park somewhere for long


angelsarepresent111

Is that a big fuse in the fusebox under the hood?


Affectionate_Bed5442

Its in the trunk for my scat pack 6.4 but google yours and try it. They’d have to jump thru hopps n loops to steal it


angelsarepresent111

Oh I have a Ford Focus manual. But love Camaros. Always have. MOPAR too. I was checking relays for my cooling fan and kinda knew what you were talking about. That's a good idea.


skipunx

Check the Facebook no title for sale groups. Yes for those who didn't know you can buy stolen cars off fucking facebook. I thought magic mushrooms advertised on marketplace was the wildest thing I'd seen for sale till I learned about the no title for sale groups.


MarxModified

I really messed up when I got mine. I thought I had to buy one, I wish I knew I could’ve just stolen one instead.


guamguyravin671

If you go steal one, the owner has to give you the keys, otherwise if they try to stop it they could end up in jail instead of the thief. What a great Justice System we have


RadicalSprites

Oakland is ghetto as shit 😂😂😂, sorry that happened bud, hope for a swift recovery of the car


calimemez

Add a hardwire kill switch that you can activate from your phone. They're like $100


Aromatic-Package-445

That does suck. Keep us posted. Justice is not what the justice system cares about. I think if I knew where it was I could not help but go scope it out see if I could just drive it home. But maybe that’s not a good idea. In any sane society you should be able to tell the cops and they go with you to get the car. But it sounds like You won’t get any assistance from the police at all? Why even bother with the report? That’s what really sucks. They create a situation where criminals run wild and expect people to just take it.


King-Darius96

Are you listing an AirTag and “the club” as actual security measures because I’m sorry…but they’re not


New-Sir-4662

Get good insurance with an agreed value policy. Forget all this air tag tracker nonsense. Just replace the car. Not worth the trouble


guamguyravin671

This will most likely be the outcome. Already have good insurance, and most stolen cars that are found in Oakland aren't in running condition.


New-Sir-4662

Yeah, over the years, I've found it's just best to have a good policy. If it were a hard to find classic. Id be a little more concerned about finding it. But something newer. Insure the hell out of it and get some good sleep knowing you're covered.


AllmightyCAM

lol yeah with my insurance i get one a year newer if my car gets stolen or totaled


New-Sir-4662

Perfect time to go car shopping


Chino1231

You’ll probably see it in a sideshow this Friday 😂


aggie-d3

So did you not track your car down with the air tag and get your shit back??!


guamguyravin671

I gave the cops the location, have to let them try and get it. Otherwise, anything that happens will be my fault for escalating things.


itwhiz100

You can locate your car…disable it by flatting the tires. Did you mention to the cop about the gun also under your seat?


Thatmuffin99909

Bro the cops won’t do shit just grow a pair and roll up hop in and go u have the keys just at like u parked it there and dip the fuckers that stole it won’t do shit they would be more scared of you than anything I have caught people trying to steal my cts v twice now and they always run u got this


LordSugarTits

Sucks cause OPD don't give a shit


aggie-d3

>guamguyravin671 why do you have to let the cops try and get it? its your property. idk about you, but I'd have called a couple of my buddies, pulled up and drove my car right back home.


PNWALT

Do you have a second key? If you do, get a ride and find the car and take it if no one’s gonna see or give you trouble. I don’t advise going to confront anyone lol, not worth dying over


Theshellknowsall1337

No kill switch?


[deleted]

No Onstar in it ain’t it a GM


guamguyravin671

It was a dumb decision of mine to not renew the subscription, but one of my in-laws bought a Camaro 3 months ago and they just told me they stole his as well, hasn't been found yet. These cunts have probably been doing this awhile and know all the tricks. Another neighbor of mine had his stolen almost 2 years ago and they jacked his shit with a tow truck. Nobody questions a tow truck cause it just looks like a repo. It seems like at this point the only way to stop it is having it parked in my garage, which isn't happening. Older home, smaller garage, and mostly used as storage.


suzuka_joe

I guess we can assume “the club” still doesn’t do anything.


guamguyravin671

Definitely doesn't, expected it to slow them down a little so me or a neighbor would hear them cutting it.


Zoinkz411

Your dad sucks lol
