Report Auto Theft (Button)

HEAT® (Help Eliminate Auto Thefts) is Michigan’s statewide auto theft prevention program that coordinates citizen action with law enforcement agencies, through a confidential toll free tip line for reporting information on stolen vehicles and suspected auto theft activities including insurance fraud and carjackings.

HEAT® is funded by the automobile insurers in Michigan and administered through the Michigan Automobile Insurance Placement Facility (MAIPF).

HEAT® tip callers are rewarded with

  • up to $1,000 if their tip leads to the arrest and prosecution of a suspected car thief and for auto theft related insurance fraud and/or identity theft;

  • up to $10,000 is awarded if the tip results in the arrest and binding over for trial of suspected theft ring members and/or chop shop operators. 

  • $2,000 for information for arrest and prosecution of a carjacking suspect.
