2 Way Car Alarms Notify You Of Potential Problems

With a vehicle protected by a 2 way car alarms system, many using FM technology, when the alarm is activated a signal is sent to your receiver notifying you that your vehicle has been violated. Some police, however are not enamored with this system as they say it 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 controller also is capable of remote start for the vehicle, door locks and trunk release. Owners have been able to deter the theft of their vehicle by opening the trunk and locking the doors from up to 2,500 feet away, with the thief still inside the vehicle.

Electronic Tracking Helps With Vehicle Recovery

Many manufacturers of 2 way car alarms also include GPS systems 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 get lost if your vehicle is parked in an underground parking structure or behind some other solid object that blocks the signal.

Several models of 2 way car alarms are available that allow you to not only remote start your vehicle, while keeping the doors locked, but also adjust internal temperature controls before you reach the car. Think about getting off work and before you walk into the parking lot on a frigid day, you can start the car, turn up the defroster and have the windows cleared and the interior warm before you get to the car.

Of course, your vehicle must be able to accept these types of amenities built into 2 way car alarms, and vehicles without automatic door locks or trunk release will not function. Additionally, most remote start units work only with cars equipped with automatic transmissions. Vehicles equipped with standard transmissions cannot be started remotely as the transmissions must be disengaged to start.
