CarLock – Works in Canada – 2nd Gen Advanced Real Time 3G LTE Car Tracker & Alert System. Comes with Device & Phone App. Easily Tracks Your Car in…

This device is fantastic. The peace of mind it provides is definitely worth the price tag. All you have to do is take it out of the box, register it online, download the app and then plug the device into your car’s OBD port.

In my 2013 Fiesta, I had to buy an extension lead because the drawer that hides my OBD port wouldn’t shut with this in place, but it only cost £5.99 so not a massive issue. This also meant I could hide it, to prevent potential thieves being able to simply remove the device.

The device is sensitive – a lorry going past my parked car in high winds was enough for it to alert me that it had sensed a vibration. However, I’d rather it was too sensitive than not sensitive enough.

You can pick your favourite colour to use throughout the app, and even upload a photo of your car to go with it. The app is fun and easy to use, and displays a log of all your past journeys. You even get a record of how many miles / hours you’ve driven each month, which is handy to know to see how much mileage I get out of a tank of petrol. The app runs fast and loads up with map of where your car is within a matter of seconds.

The GPS location or address given is not always 100% accurate, but that isn’t an issue for me.

Another thing to note is that as of August 2019, this listing is inaccurate. The monthly fee is £6.90, not £5.99 as it says in the description.

If you love your car like I love mine, this is a must have.

Decided to give this a try after having a think about it. Reading some reviews I was a bit unsure of how well it would actually perform, and the answer is quite well! So having installed it on my new Focus, just as a bit of an insight and security on where the car is and anything I should maybe be aware of if someone else is driving the car, it comes in quite handy. I connected it through a OBD splitter cable, hid the carlock device itself away, so it can’t be seen, but if the car were to go into the garage they can still connect their OBD reader etc. so the carlock never gets removed. First drive, immediately as I hit the open road it was alerting me of harsh acceleration.. But what do I expect from a Focus ST… It was a bit over sensitive for a start but seems to have sorted itself out and is proving well detailed trip information and quickly to the android app. The app is fairly responsive and easy to use and understand, often a bit on the buggy side, not really sure what it would come down to, but who knows improvements are maybe yet to come. Still this doesn’t let the product down as a whole. The device itself never seems to have a problem connecting through it’s inbuilt sim, even when miles out of town. Which is quite good considering the 3G connectivity isn’t always the best up here in the north of Scotland. Great invention and easy to install right on your drive way. Recommend!

Works really well once you get the correct co ordinates. Easy to set up and the alarm is nice n loud so you dont have to be afraid of sleeping through it. If your car is stolen for any reason you will have real time tracking to give to the police. Love it.

Ordered this product 2 weeks ago. It’s never worked since fitted. Its never recorded journey logs which is what we ordered it for. Ive been in touch with the company which makes it via email because they don’t have a landline number. It takes 24hrs to get a reply (and it is 24hr). All you are told is the tech team are looking into it. Then you get a email saying all done and should be working! Never worked again. There so frustrating to deal with. I’m gutted I had a one off but with all the problems I’ve had with it I would have expected a new one sent straight out. Returning back and hopefully get my money back. The company/help desk are a waste of time. Won’t be ordering another one.

This is a great item to add a further level of security to your car or truck. The monthly monitoring fee is at a fair price. The features and construction of the unit itself is of good quality.

However, I would NOT recommend the CarTag . They are having issues with it. Plus you have to buy it off the Amazon US. The CarTag only works properly once and awhile. I would NOT rely on this feature to arm your system. Most times I have to arm it manually. Thus removing the need for the CarTag feature all together.

In closing like I said along with a good vehicle alarm system and adding this on top is a no brainer must have. If you can’t afford a full car alarm then this is your ONLY go to choice. It works great, tracks and notifies you vibrations, alarms and electrical system….just don’t buy the extra CarTag

I love the ease of use and the performance of this product, it is cheaper subscription than the stock GPS programs that come through the car manufacturer.
The good: it’s easy plug and play. The app works very well and has no glitches. Notifications are great and come in within seconds of the alarm being triggered. I love the driving score, especially if you have someone else driving your car.

The bad: it’s too large that I couldn’t apply the Ebrake on dodge charger with it on, so I had to get an extension. Which brings me to the next issue, I’d love to see a double bypass type of extension cord (similar to the one that comes with the z automotive tazer) this way criminals won’t find it easily and won’t be able to disable it. The last issue I had was at the beginning, but I believe it has been fixed, it was that the GPS would show the car at a place that I was at hours prior, and it’d take a day for it to snap out of it.

Over all, good product and I’d recommend it.

It’s a great product, no tools needed and easy to use app. The best way to track a vehicle and keep record of their trips.
