A vehicle theft-prevention apparatus can include a body, a computing device, sensors, and a speaker. The body can include a first and second portion and a light emitting portion. The first portion can move relative to the second portion. The second portion can include perforations to facilitate sound transmission from the speaker. The light emitting portion can be positioned between the first portion and the second portion. The light emitting portion can be configured to emit light based on a signal from the computing device. A lens can include a concentric structure protruding from the body. The lens can cover the sensor.

A vehicle theft-prevention apparatus can include a locking mechanism configured to engage to secure the vehicle theft-prevention apparatus into a vehicle and disengage to unsecure the vehicle theft-prevention apparatus from the vehicle. The vehicle theft-prevention apparatus can include a clutch mechanism configured to prevent the locking mechanism from further engaging based on a magnitude of force applied. The clutch mechanism can include a first portion configured to rotate about an axis and comprising at least one aperture, a second portion configured to rotate about the axis and comprising a track, and at least one article configured to pass through the at least one aperture and travel along the track.

A vehicle theft-prevention apparatus can a motor unit configured to rotate based on an electrical signal. A shaft of the motor unit can be coupled to a cam. The cam can move a connection plate between an engaged position and a disengaged position. When the connection plate is in the engaged position, a locking mechanism can move between a locked position and an unlocked position. When the connection plate is in the disengaged position, the locking mechanism can maintain a current position.

A vehicle theft-prevention apparatus can include a slip clutch mechanism, a locking mechanism, and a cylindrical body including a first portion and a second portion. The first portion can be configured to rotate about the second portion. The locking mechanism can be configured to engage based on rotation of the first portion relative to the second portion in a first direction, and disengage based on a rotation of the first portion relative to the second portion in a second direction. The slip clutch mechanism can be configured to prevent the locking mechanism from further engaging from rotation in the first direction relative to the second portion based on a magnitude of force applied.
