Lockouts in San Diego

Most San Diego lockouts happen in ordinary moments — unloading groceries, a gas stop, a quick errand with the fob left on the seat.

Requests in San Diego usually come from ordinary places: a shopping center lot in the middle of errands; a university-area lot or street during the school year; an event or venue lot after the crowd starts leaving.

If a child or pet is locked inside, call 911 first. Emergency services respond to those situations directly.

Heavy rain reduces visibility for approaching drivers. Keep your hazards on and stay inside the vehicle unless you are well clear of the travel lanes.
