On Tuesday morning, June 12, 2012, the owners of a 2011 Audi Q7 sport utility vehicle contacted the Coral Gables Police Department to report the vehicle stolen from their home in Coral Gables, Florida. The Coral Gables Police verified the theft and had the Audi’s information entered into the state and federal crime computers, which automatically activated the LoJack transponder concealed in the vehicle.

A short while later, a Miami Police Department officer picked up the silent LoJack homing signals from the stolen Audi on the Police Tracking Computers installed in their patrol vehicles. Following the directional and audible cues from their LoJack computers, the officers tracked the vehicle to the 2100 block of S.W. 11th Street, Miami, Florida. The vehicle was recovered, towed to the police impound yard for safekeeping, and removed from federal and state crime computer systems.

The LoJack Vehicle Recovery System was installed in the Audi Q7 on May 7, 2011 by Braman Audi in West Palm Beach, Florida, and has been protecting it ever since.
