Top 10 Stolen Vehicles in the U.S.

Written by Rahim Virani on 8/4/2011 8:36 AM . It has 0 Comments.

The National Insurance Crime Bureau examined vehicle theft data submitted by law enforcement to the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) and determined the vehicle make, model, and model year most reported stolen in 2010. Did you vehicle make the list?  It looks like two Honda models are at the top of the list of U.S. thieves’ favorite vehicles. For 2010, the most stolen vehicles in the nation were: 1.    1994 Honda Accord 2.    1995 Honda Civic 3.    1991 Toyota Camry 4.    1999 Chevrolet Pickup (Full Size) 5.    1997 Ford F150 Series/Pickup 6.    2004 Dodge Ram 7.    2000 Dodge Caravan 8.    1994 Acura Integra 9.    2002 Ford Explorer 10.  1999 Ford Taurus The NICB report, called Hot Wheels, examines all theft data without regard to a vehicle’s insured status. The NICB says that certain models of older cars and trucks are popular with thieves because of the value of their parts—but many are not insured against theft. Whereas newer, more expensive and insured vehicles are often stolen to be resold intact with counterfeit vehicle identification numbers or shipped out of the country. Nationally—and NICB says for the first time since 2002—thieves preferred domestic makes over foreign brands. Ford took three spots, Dodge two and Chevrolet held one while the remaining four were held by Honda, Toyota and Acura. However, the top three positions continue to be held by Honda and Toyota models, a trend that has been consistent since 2000. Overall, vehicle thefts continue their decline. Preliminary 2010 FBI crime statistics point to a further 7.2 percent reduction over the thefts posted in 2009. Should the preliminary numbers hold when the FBI produces its final statistics later this year, 2010 will post the fewest vehicle thefts since 1967. The report shows that improved technology is one of the keys to lower theft rates. Of the nearly 52,000 Honda Accords stolen in 2010, over 44,000 were models made in the 1990s, compared with fewer than 5,700 that were produced since the year 2000.
