Can I remotely disable a vehicle or asset?

Yes! With Trackhawk's Kill Switch Trackers (VL03 and TH75), you can instantly disable a vehicle's starter or ignition system from anywhere using our mobile app or web dashboard.

How it works: The kill switch function is available on compatible vehicle trackers Log into the Trackhawk GPS app on your phone or computer Select the vehicle you want to disable Tap the "Enable Killswitch" button The vehicle will be unable to start until you reactivate it

You can also set up Smart GPS automation to disable your vehicle automatically under certain conditions, such as: 

  • If it leaves a designated area without authorization
  • If it moves during restricted hours If tampering is detected This remote disable feature gives you powerful control over your vehicle's security, even when you're miles away.
How does the system work to keep non-vehicle assets safe?

For non-vehicle assets like trailers, equipment, or valuables that don't have an ignition system to disable, Trackhawk GPS provides several layers of GPS security:

  • Real-Time Location Tracking - Always know exactly where your assets are located
  • Movement Alerts - Receive instant notifications if an asset moves unexpectedly
  • Geofence Boundaries - Get alerts if assets leave approved areas
  • Tamper Detection - Be notified of any attempt to remove or disable the tracker
  • Historical Tracking - See where assets have been over time to identify unauthorized use

Our Trailer Tracker (TH07) and Magnetic Tracker (TH-MAG) are specifically designed for non-vehicle assets, with: Weather-resistant construction for outdoor use Long battery life to reduce maintenance Compact, concealable design to prevent detection Easy installation without wiring or professional help When combined with our Smart GPS alerts, these trackers help you quickly respond to potential theft and provide valuable location data to authorities if recovery becomes necessary.

How quickly can a stolen vehicle be recovered?

Trackhawk GPS significantly increases recovery speed for stolen vehicles, often leading to recovery within hours instead of days—or preventing theft altogether. Key factors that speed up recovery:

  • Real-Time Tracking - Our devices update location as frequently as every 30 seconds when in motion
  • Smart Kill Switch - Remotely disable the vehicle to prevent it from being driven further
  • Instant Alerts - Know immediately when unauthorized movement occurs
  • Precise Location Data - Provide authorities with exact coordinates, not just general areas
  • Continuous Updates - Track the vehicle's movement in real-time as recovery efforts proceed

Our customers report recovery times averaging just 2-4 hours from theft to recovery when working with local authorities. Some have recovered vehicles in as little as 30 minutes after theft was detected. The sooner you're aware of theft, the quicker recovery can happen—which is why our Smart GPS automated alerts are so valuable for rapid response.

Is there a way to notify me if a tracker has been tampered with?

Yes! All Trackhawk GPS devices include tamper detection technology that sends immediate alerts if someone attempts to disable or remove your tracker. Our anti-tamper features include:

  • Power Disconnection Alerts - Notification if the tracker loses its power connection
  • Backup Battery Activation - Internal batteries keep the tracker working even if external power is cut
  • Movement Sensing - Detect unusual movement patterns that might indicate tampering
  • Signal Jamming Detection - Alerts if signal blocking devices are detected nearby

You'll receive these alerts instantly through:

  • Push notifications on your mobile app
  • Email alerts Text messages (optional)

With these tamper alerts, you'll know immediately if someone is trying to compromise your security system, giving you time to respond before a theft can occur.

What are geofences and how do they help keep my vehicles safe?

Geofences are virtual boundaries you create on a map around specific areas using the Trackhawk GPS app. Think of them as invisible fences that trigger alerts when your vehicles or assets cross them. How geofences enhance security:

  • Create Safe Zones - Define areas where your vehicles should be (like your business, home, or job sites)
  • Set Restricted Areas - Mark locations your vehicles should never enter I
  • nstant Boundary Alerts - Receive immediate notifications when a boundary is crossed
  • Automated Responses - With Smart GPS, crossing boundaries can automatically trigger the kill switch on compatible devices
  • Customizable Shapes and Sizes - Set precise boundaries from small parking lots to entire cities
  • Multiple Geofences - Create different boundaries for different vehicles or times of day

Common security applications:

  • Get alerted if your vehicle leaves your property overnight
  • Receive notification if company vehicles enter unauthorized areas
  • Set up "no-go zones" for teen drivers
  • Create a secure perimeter around valuable equipment at job sites
  • Automatically disable vehicles that leave approved operational areas

With geofences, you're not just tracking your vehicles after they're stolen—you're creating a proactive security system that alerts you at the first sign of unauthorized movement.

Many car companies use these tracking devices to enforce rental agreements more effectively. When a customer takes a vehicle beyond permitted boundaries—whether crossing state lines or entering prohibited zones—you'll receive an instant alert through the platform.

The car tracking interface provides comprehensive monitoring across your entire fleet of rental cars, with user-friendly dashboard views showing the status and location of each vehicle. This real-time visibility helps protect your assets and enforce contract terms

Does Trackhawk help reduce damage and maintenance costs?

Yes, Trackhawk significantly helps reduce damage and maintenance costs for rental businesses. Our comprehensive solution provides multiple benefits beyond simple vehicle location.

Rental car companies can monitor driving behaviors like harsh acceleration, severe braking, and excessive speeds through our advanced GPS tracking devices. This data allows you to identify potentially damaging driving patterns before they lead to costly repairs.

With Trackhawk's fleet management capabilities, your rental company can easily implement preventative maintenance schedules based on actual mileage and usage patterns rather than calendar dates. This precision ensures vehicles receive timely service without unnecessary downtime.

Car GPS tracking also helps rental car companies verify complaint validity when customers report pre-existing damage. The system maintains detailed records of vehicle movements and driving events, providing objective data to resolve disputes.

Many car companies can reduce their insurance premiums by demonstrating the enhanced security and monitoring capabilities that Trackhawk provides. This creates both immediate and long-term cost savings for your operation.

When a rental car company integrates our solution, they typically experience 15-30% reductions in overall maintenance costs and significantly fewer major repairs due to abuse or neglect. The system essentially pays for itself through these operational savings while extending the useful life of your vehicles.

What type of rentals or vehicles is Trackhawk made for?

Trackhawk works for all types of rental vehicles! Our solutions are particularly popular with car rental companies of all sizes, from local operations to national chains.

Our car GPS tracker technology is specifically engineered to work with virtually any vehicle type in a rental fleet. The system accurately monitors each vehicle's location regardless of make, model, or size - from compact cars to luxury SUVs, cargo vans, and even specialty vehicles.

Can using Trackhawk lower my insurance costs?

Yes, implementing Trackhawk GPS tracking solutions can significantly reduce insurance costs for car rental companies. Many insurance providers offer premium discounts when you demonstrate proactive security measures to protect your fleet.

With rental car tracking systems in place, you provide your insurance carrier with verifiable evidence that you can monitor each vehicle's location in real-time. This enhanced visibility dramatically improves recovery rates for stolen vehicles and reduces the time vehicles remain missing, directly impacting your risk profile.

The car GPS tracker data also helps validate or dispute liability claims. When accidents occur, you can provide precise information about the vehicle's location, speed, and driving behaviors leading up to the incident.

Many rental car GPS systems pay for themselves through insurance savings alone. Our clients typically report:

  • 10-25% reductions in comprehensive coverage premiums
  • Lower deductibles for theft coverage
  • Improved claims resolution timeframes
  • Reduced liability exposure

The systems are easy to install and maintain, requiring minimal investment compared to the potential insurance savings. Most rental companies recover their initial costs within the first 6-12 months through combined benefits of loss prevention and insurance discounts.

How can GPS tracking benefit my BHPH dealership

GPS tracking devices in your vehicles offer multiple benefits that deliver a strong return on investment for BHPH dealerships. The cost is quickly offset by improved collections and reduced recovery expenses.

Every vehicle in your inventory becomes a more secure asset when equipped with GPS tracking technology. This simple addition to your auto finance process protects your investment while also creating a more transparent relationship with customers.

GPS tracking helps your dealership in several key ways:

  1. Reduced recovery costs when repossession becomes necessary, as you'll know the exact location of vehicles
  2. Improved customer satisfaction through payment reminders that help borrowers stay current
  3. Enhanced collection rates as customers are more likely to prioritize payments on tracked vehicles
  4. Simplified inventory management across your entire dealership operation
  5. Lower operating expenses through more efficient recovery processes

The technology provides a comprehensive solution that benefits both your business operations and your bottom line. Many BHPH dealers find that GPS tracking devices pay for themselves after just a few successful recoveries.

Will using GPS trackers help reduce my default rates?

Yes. Studies show that customers are more likely to prioritize payments when they know a vehicle has a GPS tracker installed. The transparency about tracker installation often leads to more responsible payment behavior.

Implementing dealership tracking systems creates a powerful psychological incentive for timely payments. When borrowers know their vehicle includes a car tracking device, they understand that skipping payments becomes a higher-risk proposition, as you can quickly determine the vehicle location should recovery become necessary.

By reducing default rates, these systems often pay for themselves within just a few months through improved cash flow and fewer costly repossession proceedings. Dealers typically report 15-30% reductions in payment delinquencies after implementing comprehensive tracking solutions.

Are volume discounts available if I am purchasing more than one tracker for my dealership?

Yes, we do offer volume discounts for dealerships purchasing multiple GPS trackers. Our pricing structure is designed to reward dealers who implement tracking across their entire inventory.

When using GPS technology across multiple vehicles, from standard cars to specialty vehicles like golf carts, your dealership benefits from significant cost savings at scale. Our volume discount tiers typically begin at 10 units and increase as your order quantity grows.

The easy installation process means you can quickly deploy trackers throughout your fleet without disrupting operations or requiring specialized technical skills. Most devices can be installed in under 10 minutes per vehicle, allowing you to protect your entire inventory efficiently.

Many dealers find that implementing GPS tracking actually helps improve customer service by enabling more proactive communication about maintenance schedules and payment reminders. Your team can leverage the tracking system to enhance customer relationships rather than simply using it as a recovery tool.

For a detailed quote reflecting your specific volume needs, our sales team would be happy to prepare a customized pricing package that maximizes your savings while ensuring you have the right tracking solution for every vehicle in your inventory.

Can I set up geofencing for my financed vehicles?

Yes, you can set up geofencing for your financed vehicles. Our GPS tracking devices are designed specifically with BHPH dealerships in mind, offering powerful geofencing capabilities that add an extra layer of security to your inventory management.

The geofencing feature allows you to create virtual boundaries around specific geographic areas. When a vehicle equipped with our GPS tracking device crosses these predetermined boundaries, you'll receive an immediate alert through our platform. This functionality is particularly valuable for BHPH dealerships looking to monitor their financed inventory more effectively.

You can customize multiple geofence parameters based on your dealership's needs, including:

  • Setting boundaries around your city or state to identify vehicles being taken out of your service area
  • Creating restricted zones where you don't want vehicles to enter
  • Establishing allowed areas where vehicles should remain during financing terms

Each vehicle's location is tracked in real-time, enabling you to respond quickly to any boundary violations. Many BHPH dealers use geofencing as a proactive risk management tool, addressing potential issues before they escalate to payment defaults or vehicle disappearance.

The system is flexible enough to adjust geofence parameters as needed, allowing you to modify boundaries based on customer payment history or other risk factors.

Do your GPS trackers offer the ability to remotely immobilize a vehicle?

Yes, our GPS trackers do offer remote vehicle immobilization capabilities. This feature allows BHPH dealerships to remotely disable a vehicle's starter when necessary, typically in cases of severe payment delinquency or potential fraud.

The immobilization function works through a relay connected to the vehicle's starter system. When activated through our secure web portal or mobile app, it prevents the vehicle from starting after it has been turned off. This is designed as a compliance tool rather than a safety hazard—the system cannot shut down a running vehicle, only prevent it from restarting.

Many dealerships find that simply having this capability reduces default rates, as customers understand the immediate consequences of missed payments.

How can Trackhawk GPS help with emergency response times?

Trackhawk GPS helps emergency vehicles respond more efficiently and effectively. By offering real-time GPS tracking, dispatchers can instantly identify the closest units and route them around traffic, road closures, or other obstacles. This quick action reduces critical response times, ensuring emergency services can reach their destination faster, which can be a matter of life and death. The emergency GPS tracking system also tracks historical response times, helping teams refine their performance and improve overall efficiency. Whether it's ambulances, fire trucks, or police vehicles, knowing the exact location and route history of every vehicle enhances coordination and accountability.

Can Trackhawk GPS help us monitor emergency vehicle usage and reduce wear and tear?

Absolutely, Trackhawk’s GPS fleet management system is designed to monitor vehicle usage and reduce unnecessary wear and tear. By tracking idling times, harsh driving behaviors, and off-hour usage, Trackhawk allows you to identify potential issues before they result in costly repairs. Emergency GPS tracking helps departments avoid inefficient use of emergency vehicles, ensuring they are properly allocated and regularly maintained. It’s a proactive tool that helps reduce downtime, improve fuel efficiency, and extend the lifespan of vehicles.

What’s the accuracy and reliability of Trackhawk GPS?

Trackhawk GPS provides industry-leading accuracy, with location data precise to within 3 feet, even in difficult environments like urban canyons or dense forests. The GPS technology is incredibly reliable, offering a 99.9% uptime guarantee through our cloud-based platform. Additionally, the system features redundant connections through multi-carrier cellular networks, ensuring your vehicles stay connected even in areas with limited coverage. Tamper detection alerts immediately notify you if any attempts to interfere with the device are made, keeping your fleet secure at all times.

Does the service work in areas with poor cell coverage?

Yes, Trackhawk GPS works in areas with limited or no cell coverage. All Trackhawk GPS devices use 4G LTE technology that roams across major networks to maximize coverage. In areas with poor cell coverage, the devices store location data and upload it once connectivity is restored. The GPS tracking feature ensures your vehicles are always tracked via satellite even when cellular service is unavailable, giving you peace of mind that your fleet is always accounted for.

Is there a subscription associated with purchasing the Trackhawk GPS tracker for emergency vehicles?

Yes, Trackhawk offers flexible subscription plans to suit your needs. You can choose between an annual one-time payment or a monthly subscription for your GPS trackers.

How does GPS tracking help with managing a motorpool fleet?

It gives you control and clarity. With Trackhawk’s motor pool management system, you’ll know who’s using each vehicle, where it’s going, and when it’s returned. No more chasing down keys or wondering where a unit disappeared to.

You’ll get automatic logs of every trip — improving your fleet management processes, simplifying reporting, and streamlining auditing. Whether you’re managing a government, university, or corporate motor pool, Trackhawk keeps your operation efficient and organized.

Can Trackhawk help prevent motorpool vehicles misuse or unauthorized trips?

Yes — and it’s super easy to set up. You can create custom geofences around your facility or service areas, and receive alerts if a pool vehicle goes outside them.

Trip history is logged and tied to specific drivers, so there’s full accountability across your fleet management system. That means you can confidently enforce usage policies and reduce unauthorized trips across your motorpools.

What kind of security can be automated for motorpool fleets?

Trackhawk’s Smart GPS technology gives you automated control across your entire motorpool:

  • Geofence Boundaries – Set virtual zones around your property or authorized service areas. When a vehicle leaves the zone, you get an alert or the kill switch can engage automatically.

  • Time-Based Restrictions – Define hours when vehicles should not be in use, like overnight. If a vehicle moves during those times, you’re notified.

  • Speed Monitoring – Set speed limits to prevent reckless driving. Exceeding thresholds sends alerts.

  • Unauthorized Movement Detection – Get notified if a vehicle is moved without ignition (like towing).

  • Battery Tampering Alerts – If someone disconnects the GPS unit, you’ll be alerted instantly.

You can also use GPS data to plan more efficient routes, avoid traffic, and cut down on idle time. Over time, those small wins turn into big savings in fuel, time, and customer satisfaction.

Can I use Trackhawk to prevent unauthorized stops or off-route driving of my delivery vehicles?

It sure can. With custom geofencing and route monitoring, Trackhawk makes it easy to know when a driver goes off course or makes unapproved stops.

You’ll get alerts when it happens, and you can view trip history to spot patterns or recurring issues. This helps keep your drivers accountable and ensures your vehicles are being used for business and not side gigs or personal errands.
