Always lock your vehicle.
And never leave your valuables inside where they are visible to passers-by.
Park in a well-lit area...

Some might have been ripped off by oligarchs living outside the country, some might have been sold to former Soviet Bloc countres that still had parts for them.
Good luck to the FSB on getting more than a "Yeah, so?" out of whoever made them go missing.
