5 Most Stolen Cars in America

Hide that Honda Accord under lock and key, because it was the most stolen car in America last year, reports 24/7 Wall St., which details the National Insurance Crime Bureau's annual "Hot Wheels Report"of the country's most swiped vehicles. 

There were 50,427 Accords stolen in 2016, and Honda also comes in at No. 2 with the Civic, which saw 49,547 go missing.

  2. Honda Civic, 49,547
  3. Ford pickup (full size), 32,721
