We’ll cover items stolen from your vehicle, but only if two things are true:
There must be visible signs of forced entry into the car.
The item must have been properly hidden and secured. For example:
in the glove compartment or boot,
or, for LDVs (bakkies), concealed under a hard-wearing lockable cover or inside a locked canopy.
We won't pay the claim if belongings were left in plain sight on the seat. Think of it this way: your policy protects you against bad luck, not bad habits.
