Frequently Asked Questions
Is it legal to use GPS tracking devices on vehicles we finance?
In most jurisdictions, it is permissible for a lender to install a GPS tracking device on a vehicle that serves as collateral for a loan, provided this is clearly disclosed to the borrower in the finance agreement. However, laws vary by state, especially concerning features like starter interrupt. It is essential to consult with legal counsel to ensure your dealership's policies and disclosures are fully compliant with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations.
How does a starter interrupt system actually work?
A starter interrupt device is wired into the vehicle's starter circuit. When activated remotely through the GPS platform, it creates an open circuit that prevents the starter from receiving power, thus keeping the vehicle from starting. For safety, these systems are designed to only prevent the vehicle from starting; they will not shut off a vehicle that is already in motion. The feature is typically used as a tool to prompt a delinquent customer to contact the lender.
What happens if a customer tampers with or removes the GPS device?
Our commercial-grade GPS devices are designed to be tamper-resistant and are typically installed in a discreet location within the vehicle. Most systems will generate an immediate "tamper alert" or "power disconnect" notification if the device's main power source is cut or the unit is removed. This alert allows you to take immediate action, as it often indicates a high risk of default or an attempt to hide the vehicle.
Can these GPS systems integrate with my current Dealer Management System (DMS)?
Many modern GPS tracking platforms are built with integration in mind. They often provide an API (Application Programming Interface) that allows for seamless integration with a wide variety of popular Dealer Management Systems. This integration automates data sharing, allowing you to manage vehicle tracking and customer accounts from a single software interface, which significantly improves workflow efficiency.
What kind of support is provided after the GPS trackers are installed?
We offer comprehensive support for our auto dealer vehicle tracking solutions. This includes technical support for the hardware and software platform, assistance with device installation troubleshooting, and training for your staff. Our goal is to be a long-term partner, helping you maximize the return on your investment and ensuring the system operates effectively to protect your assets.
