RVs Are the 4th Most Common Vehicle Type Stolen
Protect Your RV Dealership
Our annual State of Security report shows that crime is at the top of mind for business owners, and RV dealerships are no exception. In 2024, a dealership in Texas had a $320,000 RV stolen after the front gate padlock was drilled through, and 2022 saw 34 catalytic converters stolen from an Austin, TX RV dealership in 2022.
But theft at RV dealerships go beyond the vehicles and parts—it also can include electronics. This is what happened in 2023, where thieves targeted an Oklahoma RV dealership damaging over a dozen RVs and stealing parts. In total, 7 catalytic converters were stolen worth $4,000 each, 15 spare tires and 5 TV during that heist. Fortunately, Pro-Vigil offers 24/7 monitoring and deters 97% of crime before it happens.Â
The Average Dealership is Robbed Every 37 Days
How Does This Affect Your RV Dealership?
RVs attract thieves with their larger, more expensive parts. For instance, a typical vehicle’s catalytic converter is worth around $900 on average, while RVs are equipped with two converters valued at a whopping $1,600 to $4,000 each. Professional thieves know this, making RV dealerships vulnerable targets.
