Thieves are targeting these luxury truck models in Bakersfield
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Bakersfield is near the top of the list when it comes to car thefts in the country, and now police are sounding the alarm that luxury pickup trucks are getting ripped off. An undercover BPD officer says thieves are using auto diagnostic tools to start the trucks and disconnect OnStar systems so the trucks can't be tracked. They're even punching through the glass to open the door to bypass the push button start. Four people arrested on suspicion of stealing multiple Arvin Public Works trucks: Arvin PD 'The police department said that they're an organized ring and they're coming to Kern County to steal trucks to fill their orders,' Chief Operating Officer John Pitre with the Motor City Auto Center said. Over the last two months, there's been a surge of high-end truck thefts targeting 2018 and 2023 GMC Sierra half-ton and three-quarter ton pickups with the AT4 or Denali trims. 'Exotic suspension systems, wheels and tires, big brakes, high-power engines, leather interiors. I don't really think they're going after these trucks for a particular feature. I think they're looking for the entire truck,' Pitre said. Pitre said if you own one of the trucks, Motor City customer or not, to send an email to help@ or call 661-559-9595 to protect your pickup. 'We have a way to catalog those vehicles in such a way that if they are stolen, we can recover them,' he said. Bakersfield ranks 2nd in metro areas with highest car thefts in 2022 study Police say truck thefts are happening mostly along the Panama Lane and Buena Vista Road corridors. Brock Butler's GMC Heavy Duty 2500 truck got broken into. 'They ripped my deck out and messed with the whole brain of my truck. They popped my key cylinder and got right in the door,' he said. Brock Butler builds pools. It took three men five hours to dig a hole while their heavy duty pickups are out in the open. But, Butler has a hack. 'If you put an aftermarket handle that doesn't have a key cylinder on it, that's worked for me,' he said. California led the country in total vehicle thefts per capita last year. Bakersfield was ranked the third on the list for stolen vehicles in 2024, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau. Close Thanks for signing up! Watch for us in your inbox.

Lock your vehicle and park it in the garage, behind a secure fence or box it in. Add a GPS tracker so authorities can find your vehicle faster if it gets stolen. Police say the easiest way to protect your vehicle is to disconnect your battery. That way thieves can't even start your pickup. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
