Don’t let your vehicle become a statistic.

The US average rate for car theft recovery is 46 percent, but the state-by-state rates of recoveries vary greatly. Washington found 71 percent of them. It was followed by Utah (63 percent), South Dakota (61 percent), Nevada (61 percent) and California (60 percent). Michigan, the bottom-performing state for recoveries, found just 19 percent of stolen vehicles and was preceded by Pennsylvania (26 percent), Arkansas (28 percent), Alabama (28 percent) and Mississippi (29 percent).
