Milton residents can now go to a Milton auto dealership to get a tracking device placed in their vehicle.
The Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) has expanded their auto theft prevention campaign known as Project Oxygen. It began in May of this year and encourages residents to place third-party trackers (such as an Apple Air Tag, Tile, Galaxy Smart Tag or Atuvos) inside their vehicles. This program initially started with the participation of six dealerships in Oakville installing the trackers for residents.
The new participating dealerships are:
- Wallace Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, GMC – 801 Main Street East, Milton
- Team Honda Powerhouse of Milton – 170 Steeles Avenue East, Milton
- Milton Chrysler Dodge Limited – 81 Ontario Street North, Milton
- Milton Toyota – 1245 Steeles Avenue East, Milton
- Oakville Honda – 500 Iroquois Shore Road, Oakville
Also of note, Lexus owners who live in Milton can now attend Lexus of Oakville for this service:
- Lexus of Oakville – 1453 North Service Road West, Oakville, ON
Consistent with the launch in May, dealerships have agreed to install trackers for Oakville or Milton residents who own the dealership’s make of vehicle. It is the responsibility of vehicle owners to provide the trackers.
Contact your dealership directly for more information and to book an appointment.
