Recovery is not the focus here!

31 March 2024

Preventing theft should be the goal; waiting for recovery is like closing the stable door after the horse has bolted.

Caravan and motorhome theft rose by 14% in 2022, and the numbers keep climbing. Shockingly, less than 22% of stolen vehicles are ever found.

That’s a serious issue, isn’t it?

Many stolen vehicles may be in databases like CRiS and equipped with Vin Chip. Yet, considering the low recovery rate, claiming the return of a damaged or misused vehicle as a success is misleading. It’s a clear failure.

At Caravan ID, like CRiS or Vin Chip, we maintain a database. But unlike them, we have never had a vehicle stolen.

And why is that? Well, our system uses simple, proven and overt vehicle marking coupled with our international database.

It’s as straightforward as that.

It’s free to use and accessible to law enforcement and emergency services worldwide. Just register your vehicle, and your protection begins.
