Abstract

In a method for detecting whether a motor vehicle in a parked state, in particular in the switched-off state, has been hit or moved, at least one sensor signal is transmitted as a function of a position of the motor vehicle relative to at least one vehicle-external reference object from a sensor device to a control device. The control device compares the at least one sensor signal with at least one predetermined signal pattern or with at least one predetermined value interval or with at least one predetermined signal template, and transmits at least one control command for initiating a safety measure to at least one unit of the motor vehicle, when the comparison reveals a difference.
