ABSTRACT:
An anti-theft device for a vehicle which includes dead bolt mechanism(s) for securing the door(s) of the vehicle such that no working parts of the mechanisms are accessible from the exterior or interior of the vehicle. The dead bolt mechanisms are actuated remotely by a portable hand-held transmitter which simultaneously operates to enable or disable the ignition circuit of the vehicle. In an enabled state of the anti-theft device, the dead bolts of the dead bolt mechanisms are retracted in an unlocked position and the vehicle ignition is operable. In a disabled state, the dead bolts of the dead bolt mechanisms are extended to a locked position and the vehicle ignition is inoperable so that the vehicle cannot be started.
