Cheshire Police are warning Nissan Navara owners across Crewe and Nantwich to be vigilant following nine thefts in the past two months.
Six vehicles Navaras have been stolen from Warrington, one from Crewe and Chester, and two from Congleton since January 1st this year.
While officers are investigating the thefts they are urging owners of Navaras to take steps to secure their vehicles.
Chief Inspector Rob McLoughlin said: “These are keyless thefts, so just making sure your doors are locked won’t keep it secure.
“Putting your keys further away from where the vehicle is parked, or putting the keys in a faraday pouch will prevent thieves from gaining access to your vehicle.
“You could also think about getting a steering wheel lock.
“If you spot any suspicious behaviour, please report it to us and if you have a doorbell camera, make sure its charged and in working order so that any suspicious behaviour is captured to help us with our enquiries into finding those responsible.”
