The first thing I would do is call the shop and let them know it was taken, though they'll probably give you the "Not responsible for items left in customer's vehicles" garbage. As far as I know, the Predator can only be used for one vehicle at a time, meaning that they would have to set your computer back to the factory settings in order to be able to use it on another truck. Of course, most criminals aren't very smart, so they won't know that, so it's useless to them. The only way to reset your computer without having the unit would unfortunatly be to have the dealer re-flash it, and since it's the result of an aftermarket add-on, they'll most likely charge you since it's a violation of warranty. You could try disconnecting the battery for a period of time to reset the computer, but I can't say for sure if it would work or not.
