ABSTRACT:
A vehicle anti-theft steering wheel disabling device for a steering wheel that includes an upper plate, a rim, a lower plate, and removal preventing apparatus. The upper plate has an upper plate outer surface, an upper plate inner surface, an upper plate perimeter, and contains at least one upper plate aperture. The rim has a rim top, a rim bottom, contains a rim aperture, and is disposed on the upper plate lower surface at the upper plate perimeter. The lower plate has a lower plate inner surface, a lower plate perimeter, and is positioned with the lower plate inner surface disposed on the rim bottom at the lower plate perimeter. The upper plate, the rim, and the bottom plate form a steering wheel chamber for captivating the steering wheel with the steering wheel air bag side being covered by the upper plate. The removal preventing apparatus is disposed on the upper plate and the rim and prevents removal of the upper plate when the steering wheel is captivated in the steering wheel chamber so that access to the steering wheel air-bag side is denied and removal of the air bag is prevented.
