We have a Toyota Aqua, with key so not built-in immobilizer (car theft isn't really a thing in Japan) - is that the same as your daughter's? Takes about 10 seconds or less to break it and steal one. Paid $350 for a budget car alarm with immobiliser, but also use a bright red steering wheel lock. Most thefts for joy riding are kids, and if they see a steering wheel lock, they will look for easier pickings... The alarm stickers on the windows and blinking light are also part of the deterrent.
