Carr Security System

[mky]

Guys,

My car came with the dealer added option of "Carr Security System". Does any of you have this option on your car? The dealer has this activated on my car. He said that if anyone were to break into the car without the key, the system will be deactivated and you cannot start the car then. He attached the security key with my both the keyfobs. I see a red light glowing on the dash when the car is locked meaning the car is being protected.

I am wondering if this is a GPS tracking device?

Sorry for too many questions

Where do you live?

Normally, the red flashing light on the top of the dash is for the factory security system, unless you are talking about some other red light.

Did you finance or lease your car through the Hyundai dealer? Then it might be a tracking system, or maybe your car was a demo that had it installed for obvious reasons.

Many aftermarket alarm systems have an ignition immobilizer (prevents starting the car if the alarm goes off), but it it's dealer installed it probably includes a GPS tracker to make it easier to repossess.

Did you possibly mean Karr instead of Carr? If so, it looks like they specialize in selling these systems to dealers. Here's some more information on Karr: http://www.karrsecurity.com/karr.html

I was told that it is engine immobilizer if someone were to break into my car. The stock alarm system just beeps but does not immobilize, not sure if this is correct though. Not sure why would they install the tracker as the car is not leased nor financed through them, plus I did not pay for this.
