The owners of a 2007 Jeep Wrangler contacted the San Diego Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen in the city of San Diego.

The San Diego PD verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Jeep.

A short while later officers from the La Mesa Police Department picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Jeep with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft.  Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the officers tracked the Jeep to a residential neighborhood located in the area of University Avenue in La Mesa.

The LoJack® System was installed in the Jeep Wrangler in May 2007 at Midway Jeep Chrysler, San Diego, California.
