In a WILD turn of events they have located my vehicle. I just got home to Buffalo, NY and received a call that they found my car in Toronto. So, I am going back to Canada tomorrow.

I agree an air tag won't prevent a vehicle from being stolen. It will however assist in tracking the tag as long as the tag in the vicinity of an I-phone. If it was taken to a chop shop, the tags location can be tracked, same with taken to a container......"last seen in the vicinity of" will come up on the I-phone tracker.None of these AirTag suggestions will help. Vehicle theft in Toronto/Ontario is due to organized crime (I lived there for ten years). They target vehicles that can be stripped for parts and most end up overseas. Motorcycle theft was extremely bad there too.
Faraday pouches, ODB2 port locks, encrypted CAN-BUSes, steering wheel locks, etc help eliminate the dumbest criminals.
Canada's theft rate is high but still better than the US'

Hopefully you will find the vehicle in the same condition that you left it, sans the broken window.In a WILD turn of events they have located my vehicle. I just got home to Buffalo, NY and received a call that they found my car in Toronto. So, I am going back to Canada tomorrow.
Pro tip: Disable the AirTag speaker before hiding it. Takes 30 seconds.I agree an air tag won't prevent a vehicle from being stolen.

That is GREAT news! I'm smiling ear to ear.In a WILD turn of events they have located my vehicle. I just got home to Buffalo, NY and received a call that they found my car in Toronto. So, I am going back to Canada tomorrow.
They didn't catch them and I doubt they dusted the car. We will see when I pick it up.That is GREAT news! I'm smiling ear to ear.
Let's hope the broken window is the only blip.
I hope they got the guy who did this . . . or got his fingerprints and know who he is. He deserves to be punished.
