GPS Enabled Monitoring Protects Your Valuable Assets

It happens all too often.  Your customers take your service loaners for extended test drives and you don’t get them back when you expect them. What’s worse, the vehicles are subject to misuse and excessive mileage, ultimately lowering the value of your service fleet. 

Now your dealership can avoid these problems, reduce loaner maintenance costs, improve loaner resale value and enjoy peace-of-mind! 

With Guidepoint’s Loaner Vehicle Protection service, every service loaner you protect is fitted with Guidepoint’s advanced tracking unit. This state-of-the-art module combines a GPS receiver, wireless data modem and vehicle interface component allowing for communication between the vehicle and Guidepoint’s tracking system, giving you the ability to do all this:

  1. Keep Track Of The Vehicle.  Using Guidepoint’s ingenious online interface, you can keep tabs on your service loaners and get instant information about a protected vehicle’s location, travel speed and direction 24/7 just by logging on to your account at www.guidepointsystems.com.
  2. Establish Automatic Boundary Alerts.  When you don’t want your service loaners traveling beyond a certain radius, you can easily set up boundary alerts through the Guidepoint website.  If your loaner vehicle ever leaves the preset radius, you’ll be notified instantly via text message or email.
  3. Trigger Reminder Alerts.  If your customer is enjoying an extended use and the vehicle is overdue to be returned to you, you can easily trigger audible in-vehicle reminders - a series of continuous, persistent buzzes that sound in 30-second intervals.
  4. Disable The Vehicle’s Starter Motor.  From traveling outside of your boundaries, to excessive speeding and an overdue return, there are several reasons why you may want to restrict your customer from continuing to use a service loaner.  Guidepoint’s Loaner Vehicle Protection allows you to quickly and safely disable a vehicle’s starter, preventing continued use.
  5. Add Value When You Sell.  Once your loaner vehicle has completed its service term, you want to be able to sell it for top dollar.  Guidepoint’s Loaner Vehicle Protection makes that possible by restricting how the vehicle is used while in service, keeping it in tip-top condition.  What’s more, you’re able to market the vehicle as equipped with a Guidepoint unit, which can be used with any of Guidepoint Systems’ popular driver services, from stolen vehicle recovery, emergency dispatch and online vehicle tracking, to fleet management and more.
