Default Arrigo CJDR has a Jeep SRT8 stolen by thieves using a "key swap" technique

A TV News Report indicates that Arrigo CJDR had a Jeep SRT8 stolen by customers who gained conrol of the Jeep's keys using a "key swap" technique and then drove off in the vehicle minutes after the salesperson completed the demonstration. For the full report which includes TV footage showing the suspects - click here

As the General Manager commented it appears these thieves were professionals and the "key swap" technique is something that almost all dealerships would be vulnerable to.

While I hate to see any Dealer have a vehicle stolen from their lot I have to give props to Arrigo CJDR for having an excellent video surveillance system that will likely play a major role in bringing these thieves to justice and for spreading the word to help prevent other dealers from suffering a similar circumstance.
