Frequently asked questions

Important questions. Simple answers.

What does DriveClub's Auto Theft Reward Program actually do?

When your covered vehicle is reported stolen, DriveClub's Auto Theft Reward Program pays a $5,000 reward for information provided to a law enforcement agency that leads to the arrest and conviction of anyone who steals your covered vehicle. This financial incentive encourages the public and informants to come forward with information about the crime.

Can the $5,000 be paid to me if my car is stolen?

No. The $5,000 reward is paid to the qualifying tipster whose information leads to the arrest and conviction of the person who perpetrated the theft. It is not an insurance payment or cash benefit to you as the member. For financial protection after a theft, your auto insurance policy is the appropriate coverage.

Do other limitations apply to this reward or this benefit?

The DriveClub member, their family members, and law enforcement personnel are not eligible for this reward, and the reward does not cover loss from vandalism or stolen contents. Auto theft reward benefit claims are limited to one during the entire membership period. This benefit is not available to Tennessee or Utah residents.

Does DriveClub guarantee that my car will be recovered?

No. The reward program increases the likelihood of tips coming in but cannot guarantee apprehension of the perpetrator or recovery of the vehicle. Less than 60% of stolen vehicles are recovered nationally. The reward is a meaningful incentive, not a guarantee.

Can I file more than one theft claim?

No. Auto theft reward benefit claims are limited to one claim during the member's entire membership period.

Does this auto theft reward program replace auto insurance?

No. The reward program works alongside your auto insurance — it is not a substitute. In the event your vehicle is stolen, you should contact your auto insurer to file a theft claim under your comprehensive coverage as a separate and parallel step.

Which DriveClub membership plan includes the Auto Theft Reward Program benefit?

The Auto Theft Reward Program benefit is included in the DriveClub Advantage and Elite membership plans. The Essentials plan does not include this benefit.
