I will NEVER buy another used car that I believe to have a Lojack in it. I've looked under the dash on both sides, in the front and rear pillars and in each rear fender and in the well where the door lock module is at. I guess the kickpanels are next. Any info appreciated, even if it is what system they were using in 04. Mine also has the fob system that alerts you if it moves without the fob present.
I tried for hours to find out information about these things. They are so damn tight-lipped about their system and keep everything very close to themselves. Seems the only way to get rid of them is to challenge their legality that they are holding ppl hostage after the original owner sells the vehicle. Lojack should be forced to release to a current registered owner, the details of the specific installation (to the point of a buy-back of their system).
