For Peter, Friday nights usually meant wrapping up work late and looking forward to a quiet weekend. But one Friday evening turned into anything but quiet—thanks to a near-miss car theft that could have cost him thousands.

It was around 7:30 PM, and Peter was still at work, when suddenly, his phone buzzed. It was a vibration alert from the CarLock app, warning him that something was happening to his Jeep Cherokee.

“At first, I thought it might’ve just been someone brushing against the car or something small,” Peter said. “But I opened the app just to be sure.”

Car theft is something no driver ever wants to experience—but for Scarlett, Nissan Juke Nismo RS owner, a quick response and real-time tracking from CarLock made all the difference.

It was a Saturday morning like any other. At around 7 AM, Scarlett woke up and casually checked their phone. As someone who’s used to seeing the standard CarLock notification “Security Disabled (Scheduler)” by the Scheduler SmartLock feature, she immediately noticed something was off. Alongside the usual alert was something far more serious. She shared, “I also saw ‘engine started’ and ‘car moved’ notifications.”
