Welcome to Punaweb! You've picked the right place, Puna is a great area for a holiday.
As with many places in the world, car break-ins are a problem. Of course don't leave any valuables in the car. Some also suggest leaving the car unlocked so windows don't get broken but I've never had a problem with that.
Be careful at your rental as well, hide any valuables and make sure you lock up.
If you go swimming somewhere, don't leave your car keys with your stuff, you may lose them and your car.
I know this makes it sound like a high-crime area but it's not and I'm sure you won't have any problems. We'd have even less of a problem if everyone made it harder for the crooks.
