They are not going to respond to you if you ask "Can you bypass my immobilizer?" Because they don't do that, that 'company' has NEVER claimed to bypass one yet.

Read the text carefully: They assist existing auto electronics shops and people like Josh Chase to "bypass an immobilizer".



They are selling information, dubious information, IMO.
But that is all they are selling.

Their site is full of promises, but again, they DO NOT claim that they can do it, only that they can HELP an experienced hacker do it.

The positive I see here, is that there is a demand for getting around what are becoming unsupported security systems. The Crossfire is not alone here, we are not looking at a fleet of cars that is aging that OTHER manufacturers will also stop supporting.

Of course, if we can keep the car going, say, ten to fifteen more years, we will retire them all to scrap yards anyway, once gasoline and diesel engines are illegal in private hands. (If you don't think that is coming, you are living a fool's paradise).

Exactly!! With the advent of CVT style electric motors and lithium derivative (ie sulfur) batteries propelling ground vehicles with fossil fuel is near the end. I apologize for digressing the topic and will say no more of it in this thread..

Pizzaguy I am so glad someone else has said this besides me our cars will end up in salvage yards . Be careful you will be called a Troll next by certain member who are in love with their cars and say you are discouraging others from buying them . I wont mention those who call me a Troll they know who they are !! I Just speak the truth .

but then again, can we mod it then using whatever technology and still using the same great looks, (even keeping that great engine) as many have done with whichever vehicle they like? like using a v8-that has been done?
just discard the electronics that are no longer available and replace them with something simpler?
meaning, for instance, THAT evildisgracefuldisgusting skreem ?
i have seen this coming in other fields. i fly r/c models, and internal combustion engines are being replaced by lithium powered electric models.
