Be sure you tell them upfront you don’t want the extra... - Pat Strongitharm
Be sure you tell them upfront you don’t want the extra security device. They don’t tell you that the police have no way of tracking your car with this device in it. Device is 2 black poker chip sized discs that no one can see. They can’t show you them because each salesperson sticks them somewhere different. No one knows where they are.. Read the site for KYCS.ca. Or better still1(866)800-4111 Ext 3 ‘This the Safety device sales people stationed in Schoenberg Ontario. KYCS at first said you call them with your police report and they then activate the device in your car and tracking begins. I called the police in Newmarket as I had been told police all over North America had systems in their cruisers to track the sensitive new technology. The police tracking officer I spoke to said they have no such technology and had never heard about this type of device..
I went online to research the KYCS device. The device can only be tracked from a radius of 20km from where your car was first stollen from.. NOT all over North America. The cost to YOU is minimum $1,000 to start the search. NO they told me police can’t track the device. They use a special equipped car to track the device. Thus the reason for the $1,000 to initiate the search that can only look in a 20km radius.
I called back the KYCS dealer . By now they were getting fed up with all my calls questioning how exactly it worked and that police couldn’t be part of the search. The fellow in a frustrated tone said, “We just sell the devices to Newmarket Hyundai what they do with them or arrangements re tracking services is up to them.” My question remains to Newmarket Hyundai. How in good conscience can you firstly not ask permission before inserting these discs at a cost Of $700? Secondly why aren’t you providing each customer with a print out of exactly how the vehicle is tracked. That there is a potential of $1,000+Cost to have the vehicle tracked? Who pays for that. Also be up front about only being able to track ins 20km range so people can make an informed decision whether to purchase the system or not.
Automatically installing an additional safety system when the car already has a factory installed one is nothing but a money grab.
Thank you for refunding my cost for the system I never wanted installed. It was quite a fight for that refund spanning several months. Perhaps my reporting of the police denial of them being able to track it all over North America, even in parking lots or police driving past underground parking and their new devices in cruisers being able to pick up the signal. Maybe the KYCS sales dealer became frustrated with you and said to get me to stop the calls. From reading another review in 2021 where you refused to remove the device and they didn’t receive a refund I realize you didn’t do for me out of the “goodness of your heart.”
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THINKING: SHOULD I DEAL HErE?
