AirIQ says its MobileIQ is now offered as both a simple stolen vehicle recovery service and, through an easy online upgrade, as an enhanced web-based safety and security interactive service. When a MobileIQ-equipped vehicle is stolen, the vehicle owner contacts the 24/7 call center which then provides its location to local law enforcement for recovery.

Once the system is installed in a vehicle, the owner registers the vehicle through the AirIQ website. He has the choice of completing registration for the simple stolen vehicle recovery service or upgrading to a set of interactive services delivered via his own personal, secure web-site.

MobileIQ’s service advantage, says AirIQ, is based on the use of GPS technology enabling affordable coverage across North America. Additional safety and security interactive functions include excessive speed alerts, unauthorized movement alerts, battery-disconnect alerts, boundary and border crossing alerts, plus door-unlock and engine-disable capabilities.
