Catalytic Converter Theft in West Virginia
Catalytic converter theft is skyrocketing nationwide, largely due to the rise in prices paid by scrap dealers for the precious metals found inside. Theft of your vehicle's converter can cost thousands of dollars in replacement cost, so it's a good idea to take measures against catalytic converter theft before it happens.
There is a wealth of information and first-hand accounts of catalytic converter theft online and nationwide:
"Police in St. Louis, Missouri, reported 50 catalytic converter thefts in 2019, and 420 in 2020. Wichita, Kansas police reported 102 cases just last month – nearly a year’s worth of thefts just a few years ago."

Catalytic Converter Theft Deterrent
There are a number of ways to prevent or lessen the chances of your vehicle's catalytic converter being stolen, such as parking in well lit areas, or deflating the tires of a vehicle to reduce the ability of a would be thief to gain easy access to the vehicle's undercarriage, but those methods aren't always possible or practical.
That's why we recommend installing a catalytic converter lock or catalytic converter guard.

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Anti Theft Device Install in Charleston WV
Like a catalytic converter on a gasoline powered vehicle, a diesel particulate filter contains valuable precious metals that are attractive to thieves.
With theft of these devices escalating nationwide, a DPF theft deterrent device is a wise investment for diesel truck owners or fleet managers in charge of large fleets especially since diesel trucks tend to be higher off the ground, making for easy pickings for opportunistic thieves.
VMS in South Charleston WV provides sales and installation of DPF locks or DPF theft deterrents at prices less expensive than the cost of replacing your vehicle's stolen DPF.
