FAQ

Do steering wheel locks really work?

They work mainly as a visible deterrent. Most thieves prefer easy targets, so a sturdy lock can make them move on to another car.

Will one fit any car?

Most universal models adjust to a wide range of wheel sizes. Check the lock's listed minimum and maximum diameter against your steering wheel before buying.

Can a steering wheel lock be cut off?

A determined thief with a saw can defeat almost any lock. The goal is to slow them down and discourage the attempt, not to be uncuttable.
