Only UTA Alerts You Of Any Changes
In Your Remote Transmitters.
The Problem: Unauthorized Transmitters
All keyless entry systems and car alarms can respond to thousands
of remote transmitters. Manufacturers want you to be able to add
remotes to the system in case you lose yours or want to give one
to a family member. Unfortunately, the reverse is also true. One
transmitter can operate hundreds of vehicles like a master key.
Within seconds, mechanics, car wash attendants, salespeople and
valet attendants can program their remote transmitter to work your
system and the systems of hundreds of other customers, giving
them undetected access to all the vehicles.
The Crime: Unauthorized Entry
If you’ve seen the movie “Gone In 60 Seconds,” you realize how
efficient thieves are. They no longer need to “clone” your remote
transmitter; they can add an entirely new one and they do not need
your transmitter to do it. Once they program your system to
respond to their remote transmitters, they gain access to your car’s
contents and the personal information (like your home address) you
keep in the glove compartment. Thieves can come to your home,
use their transmitter to disable your alarm, and steal your laptop,
garage door opener, golf clubs and tool kit. Because you won’t see
signs of forced entry, you won’t file a police report. And the thieves
can repeat the crime again and again.
The Solution: Unauthorized Transmitter Alert™
When transmitters are added or deleted from your system, an
audible alert will sound each time you turn on the ignition for the
next 48 hours. For additional safety, an LED light will blink equal to
the number of transmitters programmed to work your system. If an
unauthorized change has been made, you can delete it, preventing
unknown persons from gaining access to your vehicle.
Report The Crime
If items in your car repeatedly disappear or your car was stolen
after you armed the car alarm, your system may have been
penetrated by thieves. If you think unknown individuals have access
to your car, please call 800-554-4053 and report the crime. Then,
protect your vehicle by purchasing an alarm or keyless entry system
equipped with Unauthorized Transmitter Alert™ (UTA). If your
system doesn’t have UTA, then your vehicle and its contents are not
