What should I do first when my car is stolen?

Call your tracking and recovery team before anything else, while the car is still moving and easy to trace. Do not chase it yourself. Then report it to the nearest police station and get an extract.

Can a car be recovered without a tracker?

Sometimes, through the police report, the CMRIS database, market intelligence and CCTV, but it is slower and far less certain. A live tracker remains the single biggest factor in getting a car back quickly.

How long does stolen car recovery take in Nigeria?

With a live tracker, often within hours, because the team can follow the car in real time and move with the police. Without one, it can take days or weeks, if it happens at all.

Do I still need to report the theft to the police if I have a tracker?

Yes. The recovery team works with the police to stop and seize the vehicle. The police report and extract are also required for your insurance claim.
