an anti-carjacking device that could dramatically reduce car and motorcycle thefts not only in the country but around the world.......
When a thief tries to steal the vehicle, an alarm sounds in the owner’s cellphone that would eventually allow him to track down the vehicle. To top it off, a number on the gadget can be dialed to automatically shut down the engine of the vehicle.

There should be a number on the gadget to make the car explode. I bet that would really make them think twice about stealing a car.

Isnt this just the same technology cops use for bait cars??? I still think a device should be made that if the car is started without the key a huge dose of electricity is ran through the steering wheel.
Also dont immobilizers work just fine to prevent car theft

There is already something to stop a carjacking.
It's called a .45

Hopefully your .45 has eyes and all of the time is watching your car......

Since I am the only one who is driving, and a carjacking can only occur when a vehicle is occupied, then I am all the eyes my .45 needs.

I liked the suggestion about having the car explode except it ruins the car . What about a lethal jolt of electricity to the carjacker or the release of a deadly virus that only lasts long enough to infect the carjacker ?

Dwarf-Baby, you always seem to be reading my thoughts. I'm with you 100%. Either
a bomb (although that may cause masssive collateral damage), or a tazer of some type.
Maybe super glue that dries extremely fast...
Best not get carried away.
