I'd be worried about them making Keys for it.

They have the VIN, the reigstration, and other cards. They could easily walk into a dealership and be like look "Its my (Uncles, brothers's, etc) car and he told me to have a key made...her's the reg, the insurance cards, etc" and I bet you a dealer would prob just make them a key.

So that's what I'd be worried about.

Yeah thats true. What do you think the odds are of someone using it to steal a car later on? Is this a common thing?

My g/f's car got broken into this past summer and the theives stole her license and insurance. We weren't worried about them doing anything with the license or insurance but this thread is starting to make me second guess that.
