Abstract
It is possible to certainly prevent a vehicle from being stolen at low cost. A user of an automobile 31 registers an on or off state of a security mode with a center apparatus 33 in advance. When abnormality is detected by a sensor 41, the abnormality is notified to a center communication device 52 from an on-vehicle communication device 43 through a communication network 34. When the security mode is on, a center control device 51 notifies the abnormality to a portable telephone 32 of the user of the automobile 31 through the communication network 34.
