So if you’re a congressman they recover your vehicle.

It depends on your subscription level, as a congressman he has recovery premium plus: which includes a notification when the vehicle is retrieved, cleaning and detailing, and they'll bring it to your house.

Sometimes they really do recover it, depends on how soon the thief is caught. Cars get stolen from my work parking lot every week or two and a decent portion are recovered since the cops know where to go look. A lot of modern cars have tracking in them as well, I get gps coordinates of my cars location when I park through the manufacturer’s app

My friends' car was stolen and recovered after a high speed chase. They're both teachers fwiw
