Angry Some1 Just Tried To Steal My Coupe!

Ok guys so it was drizzling here in Staten Island..i pull into my driveway its around 9PM...so i know my windows are up..no lights are on in the car...i lock my car and go inside. 10 minutes go by and i hear my car alarm go off...(its a very sensitve dealer installed alarm so i think nothing of it) however after mayb 2-3 min its still going off so come outside...MY WINDOWS ARE OPENNN!!! the lights are on in the car!!!! My door is unlocked!!!Now i know its not a coincidence because i am POSITVE my windows were shut(it was raining when i pulled up) and i know i didnt leave any lights on inside. SOOO how could someone just open my windows???? How did this happenn???? Thank God i went for the alarm system because it would have been gone had i not purchased it! Anyway, does anyone know how to open the windows of a locked G without a key?? I live in a nice neighborhood and i am utterly shocked! Scary thing is that i got a lott of compliments on it 2day from people at lights..in parking lots and so on. Maybe some1 followed me home?? Sorry for rambling guys but doesn't this suckkkkk

Check your key hole slot on the driver's side. Do you see anything unusual?

What can they do without the key, even with the stock alarm?

steal rims, deck - that's about it...

Glad your G is ok.

There is apparently a hack where a screwdriver can lower the windows just by jamming it in the door lock and turning.

Thats why its called "New Jersey Drive".
I dare you to drive in Camden after it gets dark.
I also came from a little spot called Brooklyn AKA Crooklyn which is right over the Verrazano Bridge which leads to Staten Island.
Put 1+1=Crooklynites tried stealing your G

Sure you did not accidently have your unlock button pressed causing the windows to roll down? Just an idea.

How would they have rolled your windows down unless they turned on the igition? Do you have window control on your alarm?

An ordinary flat headed scewdriver in the key slot works wonders.

I had someone try to break into my car a while ago. they pried off the entire lock thing and kust left it hanging there. Eventually, it fell off and i had to get it fixed. but while it was just a hole, i figured out how unlock the car and roll down the windows just by sticking my finger down in there. lucky the guys that tried to get in didnt know that.


glad they didnt get away with your g

Bastard(s)...

Can't stand thieves. Get a two way alarm with no siren... so they won't hear you coming.

Our car is unfortunately really easy to break into; any decent theif could do it. Its just near impossible to hot wire; cars that are stolen are usually towed away, or the theif finds a spare key in the house or some people actually leave it in their car.
