Parked the truck along a fairly busy street by the beach, pressed the lock button on the driver’s door and locked the keys in the truck when I left since I was going surfing. When my wife and I returned she requested that I let her in because the doors were locked, so I went around to the driver’s side keypad to unlock the truck. My money clip was still in the center console with a few bucks cash still present, and her purse was still under the back seat, so we were not immediately tipped off that anything had happened. It was only when we stopped for food on the way home and realized 2 of my debit cards had been plucked from my money clip, and 4 of her cards were missing from her purse that we must have been burgled while at the beach.
I checked everything and there are absolutely no signs of forced entry, the door gaskets are not marred / torn, no scratches are present anywhere, no marks on the windows, and no tampering with the drivers side keyhole. So what are the possibilities..??..
I’m leaning towards #2, and even more so because the horn has stopped working. I first noticed this right after the cards were stolen out of the truck when I double tapped my key remote lock and it didn’t beep once like it’s supposed to (this is the truck finder feature). So then I tried the horn manually and it doesn’t work at all.
So what’s the chance that thieves used something to zap my truck open and shorted out the horn in the process?

- I accidentally hit unlock instead of lock when I left the truck, and then the thieves happened to lock it on their way out?? Not likely.
- They had some tech way of unlocking my truck.
