The owners of a 2016 BMW 200i contacted the Houston Police Department to report that their vehicle had been stolen. The Houston 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 BMW.

A short while later officers with the Houston PD picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen BMW 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 recovered the abandoned BMW. Officers processed the BMW for evidence and returned it to the owner.

The LoJack® System was installed in the BMW 200i in August 2015 at Crown BMW.
