Caution! caution! caution!
A new method of theft of vehicle had been experienced by me and i would like to caution you all so that thefts of vehicles by this mehod can be stopped.
I had purchaed swift U.D.I vehicle from the maruti autorised dealer "Prakash auto" ulhasnagar on 4-07-08 and the said vehicle were sent for the 1st free service to the dealers service station on 16-07-08 around 4 o clock. i received the call from the service station that my vehicle is ready when i want to take the delivery of the serviced vehicle, the service manager told me that the key of my vehicle are lost by them at the service station. and requested me to bring duplicate keys given to me while purchasing the vehicle and also told me that new key will be ordered from delhi plant and will be given to me.
after 9 days of servicing i.e. on 25-07-08 i was shocked to note that my vehicle has been stolen by somebody from campus of my building. this must have been done by using the lost key at the service station. police is investigating the matter and i am sure some employee of the dealer "prakash Auto" must be involve in this.
because the vehicle can not be started without original key as the modern engine systme (computer coded key) has been adopted by Maruti Udyog Ltd to the vehicle.
i would therefore like to caution that get the lock changes if your key is lost anywhere. take care of your vehicle key. just like you take care of your vehicle.
