Please take a moment to review the crime prevention advice below and protect your vehicle:

How to Keep Your Fiat 500 Safe

1. Use a Steering Wheel Lock
A high‑visibility, Thatcham‑approved lock is one of the most effective deterrents.

2. Consider a Faraday Pouch/Box
If your vehicle uses keyless entry, keep your fob in a signal‑blocking Faraday pouch at home to prevent relay attacks.

3. Fit a Tracking Device
A quality GPS tracker gives you the best chance of recovery if the vehicle is stolen.

4. Check Your Driveway Security
• Install motion‑activated lighting or CCTV if possible.
• Avoid leaving keys close to doors or windows.
