       Expert on Vehicle Theft Protection Available for Interviews

   What:   As winter ushers in its cold and snowy weather, it also
           presents opportunities for car thieves who take advantage of
           people leaving their cars running to warm them up or defrost the
           windows.  As such, LoJack Corporation
is issuing
           recommendations on how to keep vehicles safe from theft during
           this time of year. This effort is part of the company's education
           program on vehicle theft prevention.

   Who:    Theft prevention expert Patrick Clancy, Vice President of Law
           Enforcement for LoJack and former police sergeant, is available
           for interviews and offers the following advice:  "Today's clever
           thieves are particularly vigilant for thefts of opportunity
           especially in the winter months.  One common sense tip for
           consumers is never leave a vehicle running unattended to warm it
           up or defrost the windows - even if you are only leaving your
           vehicle for a minute.  Thieves know just how and when to strike
           and that is when your vehicle is most vulnerable."

   Tips:   What Can Consumers Do to Keep Their Vehicles Safe?
           By combining common sense approaches, theft prevention devices
           and tracking/recovery systems, consumers can protect their
           vehicles from theft.

           The first important step: Use Common Sense Measures.  Never leave
           keys in the car with the engine running.  Don't hide a spare key
           in the vehicle.  Close all windows and lock all doors when
           leaving your vehicle.  Park in a well-lit area and, when at home,
           keep your car in the garage.  Don't leave valuables visible in
           your car.

           The second step: Use Theft Prevention Products.  A thief is less
           inclined to steal your car if it has visible and audible warning
           devices like a wheel lock or alarm system.  Immobilizers-which
           include smart keys, kill switches and fuel cut-off devices-offer
           another means of protection.

           The third step: Use a Tracking and Recovery System.  Since
           thieves can typically disarm most theft prevention devices,
           recovery systems provide the peace of mind that you'll get your
           car back-often quickly-in the event it is stolen.  The most
           effective systems are directly integrated into law enforcement,
           use radio frequency technology-which has proven to be optimal for
           recovering stolen car and motorcycles-and are covert so they
           cannot be disengaged.
