Sorry for the loss, bro and hope you can track and recover it.
By the way, I just looked up the VIN of your Sienna [4T3ZF19C63U540686] and it's reporting to be a 2003 Toyota Sienna, so that may be something to bear in mind as you police to assist with recovery.

See proof below: https://goodcar.com/checkout/?v=10&merc_id=62a8f290427ddfcbb8de2b93&items=6357f81d5050330221a5e037&itemSet=single&mercSubId=home&tid=vehiclehistory.bja.ojp.gov&p=17&isV2=2&searchVin=4T3ZF19C63U540686&preSId=6817ae32f8cd3cdd8f0247fd


Please sir, can u help me look mine, including accident history and other important details, please.

Many people are saying that tracker, steering lock, pedal lock are all useless, that to engrave the car is the best!

One Of My Most Worrisome PTSD.

I can never leave anything i value so much out of my Sight in public places again. Sigh!

Any situation which will make me leave my Car out of my sight. That means the Car has Tracker, Steering Lock, Pedal Lock and A Very Potent Theft Protection Juju inside the Car.

Once bitten twice shy. Some Nigerians can be very Evil, So one has to be up to the Task.

There's a lot of question to be asked about this Siena. First of all, if it was in your care, why do u have to paint or upgrade it. Who actually is the owner of the vehicle and on what condition was it given to you to hold.
Secondly, if it is a popular junction with people there, it means the person that gained access to it used the same car keys, knows about the vehicle and confidently drove it off.
So the mystery surrounding the car theft is within your vicinity. I pray you find it soon. Don't just report to the police. Find a good detective to pay and work with.

Is the owner in Benin? Let then start by bringing him in for questioning. Don't waste time suckling over it, something like this happened to a friend and he got the vehicle back after a week.

. By the way, I think the best way to avoid this car thief experts is to avoid popular brands like Toyota, Honda, Lexus etc. No one steals a mercedes here, especially those ones you can barely seen around like sclass models, etc
Seriously? grin

So we should all go old school to avoid car theft?

Is this where we are now as a country?

Please remove the car documents you ed. The thieves can be here and have access to this documents and will help them. Did you do CMR for the car? If yes, any buyer that wants to do it thereafter, your name will pop up.

Go and arrest the painter, they must have duplicated your key... That is the only way they could have managed that,

Someone on this thread said trackers are useless. Can he be right?
Maybe the tracker the person has is useless because it's fake. The one I know is installed/managed by a company. It's sim card linked and after payment of the installation cost, you only pay an annual fee of 10k for the data for running the sim. Once installed, you can track the car from your phone or call the company to do it. Additionally, you can switch off the car's engine from your phone via sms text. Assuming Op had a tracker on his car, he could have immediately disabled the engine via text and would have been able to locate the car nearby since the theft just happened and they couldn't have driven the car far. Once you disable the engine this way, it can only be restarted if you send a code via sms to the tracker, so the thief is most likely to either abandon the car or try to check for engine fault and risk been caught.

The workshop is the first suspect. I tell people to stop leaving there keys with mechanics or better change the key after long park in the workshop. Some people will take your key and perfectly mould it then trail you.

This is Toyota, they go don tear the car into pieces by now

Now I don’t use tracker because it’s useless,I engrave the car because some of this thieves sell the car in pieces.
Once they noticed you have engraved the car,they won’t steal it.
As for tracker,the best way to use it is to hide it somewhere inside the car,don’t connect it to the car
cool

Did you have car insurance, the third party covers theft too. Just report to your insurance company, you would get at least 70% of your loss back.

They used a master key. If Keke owners can be securing their keke with car trackers why will a car owner not use one?

I'm sorry to say this, but you're stupid.

You have about 1.8 million Naira that is not yours and you hid it in a car that doesn't even belong to you and parked it late at night at a junction, to go and eat indomie. Your stupidity is top notch.

Indomie kii you dia! 😕 By the time you finish paying for the car and refunding the money you'd learn a valuable lesson.

cheesy,
I can't have 100k in my car and let it be out of sight. Talk less of 1m plus!

No, it doesn't work like that. Third party doesn't cover theft.
Note, third party is for the other person who may involve in an accident with you. It is not for you that pay for the insurance.
Note also that insurance is specific. Accident is different from theft. It is only comprehensive that covers all in one.
