Yes, a vehicle tracker may help the police track down your car in the event that it is stolen. If you own an expensive car, this is probably a very good item for you to use.

I don't have an OnStar system, but I believe it should. Most GPS devices leave what's callled breadcrumbs (trails of where the vehicle has been). Now it all depends on how large of a record the OnStar system retains.


How do you find the location of a repossessed vehicle?

It would depend on what state you are in. In Florida, state law requires the repo person to call the local police department when a car has been reposessed, this is done so that they do not waste their time on a stolen vehicle report if you should call it in as stolen. The local Police might know which company repo'd the vehicle. The repo company then is supposed to contact the owner (usually in writing via snail mail) and give them 45 days in which to redeem the vehicle (normally for whatever amount you are behind plus the repo & storage charges fees) or pick up any belingings that were in the car (with a storage fee of course). By Florida Law, the tag is your property so they have to give that to you with no charge.


Is it legal for a car lot to put a GPS tracker on your vehicle?

It depends on your agreement you signed when you joined the company, the likelyhood is that if when you joined there wasn't any tracker on the vehicle but they are just fitting them now, they had nothing in the agreement you signed, but check to be safe. The company wants to get a better insurance rate by demonstrating their willingness to provide for a higher level of security. Yes.

Can the impound lot keep the items in your vehicle if your car was reported stolen?

No.Another View: The police may retain any items found in the car pending proof that they actually are your property.REMEMBER: The car was reported stolen... and then it was recovered and impounded. The perpetrators MAY have used the vehicle during a crime spree and stashed their stolen goods in the car. The owner of the stolen vehicle would not be the beneficiary of the stolen goods just because they were in his vehicle. and they may have to present proof that the items found in the car actually belong to them.
