There are several posts that the thieves break a window, plug into the OBD port, start the car, and drive away. All done within a few minutes. Pulling the fuse and/or relay would stop that unless they were carrying a spare. Not much you can do about tow trucks other than put some type of tracking device on the car to hopefully locate it after it is stolen. As others have mentioned, the thieves know how to disable OnStar so it is pretty useless.
