2 Way Car Alarms Alert You Of Potential Problems

Images of a robotic automobile may come to mind when your learn about 2 way car alarms and keyless ignition

If your vehicle is protected by a 2 way car alarm unit, when the alarm is activated a signal is transmitted using FM technology to your receiver alerting you that your car has been violated. Some police departments, however are are concerned that this system could lead to vehicle owners attempting to stop a theft in progress, placing themselves in a potentially dangerous situation.

However, with most 2 way car alarms the operator is also capable of controlling the remote start for the vehicle, door locks and trunk release. Vehicle owners have been able to stop a theft by opening the trunk or locking the doors with the thief locked inside the vehicle from up to a half mile away.

Electronic Tracking Assists Vehicle Recovery

Many manufacturers of vehicle remote starting systems also include GPS in the units to enable satellite tracking of the stolen vehicle, allowing law enforcement to be advised of its location for recovery. Unfortunately, satellite signals require line-of-sight and may not function if your car is located in an underground parking garage or behind some other solid object that blocks the signal.

Several models of 2 way car alarm units are available that allow you to not only remote start your car, while keeping the doors locked, but also adjust internal temperature controls before you arrive at your car. Think about leaving work and before you walk into the parking lot on an icy day, you can start the car, turn on the defroster and have the windows cleared and the interior warm before you enter the car.

Of course, your vehicle must be able to utilize these types of amenities built into 2 way car alarms, and vehicles without automatic door locks or trunk release will not function. Also, most remote start devices work only with cars equipped with automatic transmissions. Autos equipped with a standard transmission cannot keyless ignition devices because the transmissions must be disengaged before starting.

The 2 way car alarm/remote start systems are one of the latest innovations and highly recommended for automobile owners.
