Vehicle theft has become an alarming issue in Ontario, with rising incidents affecting car

alarms aren’t enough. To protect your vehicle, you need advanced security. This is where

your car from theft.
In this blog. We’ll explore what the Tag device is, how it works, and why it’s a crucial

What is Tag and why is it important?
What is Tag and why is it important?
Tag is one of the most effective anti-theft security systems designed to prevent vehicle
theft and assist in recovery if a vehicle is stolen. Unlike traditional alarm systems that
merely alert the owner when a car is tampered with, the TAG operates independently of
your vehicle’s electrical system, making it difficult for thieves to detect or disable. It
combines tracking, recovery, and theft prevention for maximum security.
How does Tag work?
How does Tag work?
Tag not only aids in tracking if your vehicle is stolen but also deters thieves and prevents
theft. It employs a multi-layered approach to protect your vehicle:
Deterrence:
A Tag logo is etched on the front and passenger-side windows, signaling
that the vehicle is tag-protected and discouraging potential thieves.
Electronic Identification:
Tiny RFID devices with unique serial numbers are embedded
in targeted vehicle parts, making stolen components difficult to sell.
Recovery:
Small, hard-to-detect wireless tracking devices are placed throughout the
vehicle to help locate and recover it if stolen.
In case your vehicle is stolen after installing Tag, here’s what you should do:
- Contact your local police to report the theft.
- Get an event number from the police.
- Contact Tag. Tag won’t start tracking your vehicle without the event number.
The Tag tracking team responds within minutes, available 24/7, 365 days a year. They
stay at the location until the police arrive after locating your vehicle.

anti-theft devices available by most insurers. To encourage vehicle protection, insurers
often offer Tag installation at a discounted rate. Plus, you could enjoy an extra 10-20%
anti-theft discount on your insurance premium for installing Tag. If your vehicle is among
the most frequently stolen models, installing the Tag system can help you avoid the
surcharge and qualify for these discounts. Be sure to consult your insurance broker to
