On December 26, 2017 (around 7:45 PM) in the Denver area there was a LoJack unit transmitting in error from a vehicle which was received by the Denver police. The Denver police were advised by LoJack regarding this vehicle, "LoJack unit is not wanted and is being deactivated."
Did they advise when the LoJack unit was going off in your vehicle in error (possibly Dec. 25, 26)? If this vehicle was in the Denver area on December 26th possibly traveling down I-25 near downtown Denver around 7:45 PM, I'm thinking this is legit. You can always call LoJack directly and ask them; they can search by the VIN number.
The car dealer will only know LoJack is installed if they are the ones that installed it otherwise they will not be aware.
When LoJack is activated it sends out a code that police have to first query with the crime information center to obtain vehicle details. If the LoJack is going off in error a message will be provided to police that it is not wanted and LoJack will attempt to deactivate the unit. So, no one should be tracking your vehicle if it is going off in error. It will just drive LoJack up the wall (and possibly police) as their towers may pick up the signal and police LoJack receivers may continue to pick up the signal.
Here is what I would do. LoJack is a great invention and worth the money in a large city for an expensive vehicle. They cost about $700 to have installed (one time fee). I would call LoJack and ask if they would be willing to replace the unit free of charge? It would probably take an hour or two. They do not let you watch while they work in order to conceal the location of the unit.
You can private message me Koodog.
Yes I was advised it was going off in error. Evidently they could not deactivate it.
I understand if car dealer did not install it, they would not know. However my query is should it not be known? Clearly some indication inside of vehicle of Lo/Jack being present would resolve any issue as I experienced.
Any driver of this vehicle(company truck) stood the risk of being stopped and detained or whatever LE is capable of because of an unknown device. I find this unacceptable.
Lo/Jack offered nothing but to remove the device.
I agree probably a good investment when it works, however my discussion is when it DOESN'T work.
Which means Lo/Jack knew trucks location when it sent out stolen signal. I call that tracking
Because a procedure is supposed to be followed does not make it so.
