Lexus Teams Up with Tracker to Thwart Car Thieves – Free Security Upgrade for Owners!
Lexus Rolls Out Free Tracker S7 Devices
Lexus has joined forces with Tracker Network UK to beef up vehicle security. Compatible Lexus models can now get a free Tracker S7 device installed, offering owners a powerful weapon against theft. This move aims to put luxury cars out of reach for crooks by boosting the chance of recovery.
Top-Grade Tech Backed by Police and Insurers
The Tracker S7 device is Thatcham Research accredited and insurer-approved. It springs into action immediately if a car is stolen, helping law enforcement locate and retrieve vehicles faster. Plus, Lexus-approved used cars can also get the upgrade, spreading the safety net wider across the brand’s line-up.
Smartphone App Adds Extra Protection
Owners can download a nifty smartphone app that sends geofencing alerts. If the Lexus moves beyond set boundaries, users get instant warnings – a clever extra layer to keep wheels safe.
How to Get the Tracker Installed
- Check eligibility by contacting your local Lexus centre.
- The option will also pop up during standard servicing or repairs.
- The Tracker and a three-year subscription come fitted at no extra cost.
- Newer Lexus models already have built-in advanced security and don’t need this upgrade.
Chris Hayes, Director of Lexus UK, said: “With increasingly sophisticated methods being used by criminals, it is essential we give our customers peace of mind that their vehicle is well-protected. Through our partnership with Tracker, we are providing excellent additional security using the latest technology from a company that has a fantastic record in combating car crime.”
Mark Rose, Managing Director at Tracker, revealed: “Organised criminal gangs are commonly stealing cars to order, often shipping them abroad or dismantling them for their valuable parts. They are highly sophisticated in their technical capabilities, overcoming many security systems in seconds. Over 94% of vehicles we recover are stolen without the keys being present. We hold a 95% success rate in recovering stolen vehicles fitted with one of our devices. Remarkably, 50% of these are recovered within four hours and 80% are returned undamaged within 24 hours.”
Inside the Tracker S7 – A Thief’s Nightmare
The device acts like an electronic homing beacon, hidden secretly around the car to foil thieves. Tracker stands out as the only UK stolen vehicle recovery service working hand-in-hand with police forces nationwide. Over 2,000 police cars and every police helicopter use Tracker tech, capable of tracking stolen vehicles even underground or inside shipping containers. Its secret? A unique mix of VHF, GPS, and GSM signals that can’t be jammed.
Thanks to this alliance, Lexus is giving car thieves a run for their money by shielding owners from the latest crime tactics.
