Faraday's box and car theft

[Shadow]

Got a question guys.

I usually keep my car keys in the Faraday box which blocks all signals from potential thieves who use devices to get into cars. I have tested the box thoroughly and it does work. I can't get the car to unlock with the keys inside the Faraday box. Anyways yesterday morning I went into my garage to take some frozen stuff from my fridge and noticed my car's mirrors were retracted and my doors unlocked. The mirrors only retract if the car is unlocked, which it was. Is there any way a car thief could bypass the Faraday box and unlock the car even though my car is in the garage?

Is it more likely that "I" forgot to lock my car or is it more likely that some car thief in the neighbourhood was trying to remotely unlock cars and somehow bypassed the Faraday box but was unable to gain access to my garage?

No but another car directly outside my garage (belongs to my dad) had it's battery depleted and it was also unlocked, had to call a tow truck to get it towed.

Can't tell what's going on, were they trying to get into my garage? I do have cameras, maybe I should check em. I keep both car keys in the Faraday box. So if they somehow bypassed it, did they fail to start the cars? The car outside had it's battery dead and the door was also unlocked, I assume they were unable to start the car, is that because the keys were in the Faraday? The car outside is a old car from 2017, the one inside is 2024 and is expensive.

I live in a city where car thefts happen every 20 minutes, so naturally I am concerned whether or not the Faraday box bypass happened.

For those who will request me to install a killswitch, i'm sorry, I think that's stupid, it's the cops who should be doing their job to prevent thieves from stealing cars.
