OBD GPS Car Tracker, Hidden Vehicle Tracker and Monitoring System with Real Time Location GPS Reports, For Auto, Adults, Fleet, Parents, Teen, Elderly, 4G with Phone App

UPDATE TO REVIEW: After using this product for a couple of days, I found that my vehicle had difficulties with this OBD device, where the vehicle wouldn't start on the first key turn. I would have to turn off the ignition, try it again and usually repeat this process 3 or 4 times until the car would finally start. I called MotoSafety and they indicated that they have seen this on occasion and that there is no way to resolve the issue. Needless to say, I cannot use this device in this car if starting the car is compromised or delayed. Therefore, while I think the product is a great product, and the customer support is acceptable, I had to return this product. I may try the MasTrack product again (had problems with that device as well), but their customer support group had reached out to me and indicated that they might be able to modify the software on their side to allow compatibility between the OBD port and the device. ORIGINAL REVIEW I purchased this MotoSafety GPS tracker after a previous purchase of a competing product failed to work (see my other reviews for details). Unlike the big fail of the other device, the MotoSafety product was not only easy to install, but registration of the device was a snap! And, guess what? It worked right from the get-go. Keep in mind that all of the real time GPS trackers require a supplemental service, which allows for real time vehicle tracking. The service with MotoSafety is $19,95/month, with a recurring charge to your credit card. This seems pretty typical and fair, as far as service cost. (On a side-note, when you visit the website that they have listed in the packing documentation for activating your device, be sure to preface the website with the secure HTTPS:// notation. If you simply go to the website listed in the documentation, you will not be automatically directed to the secure checkout website for the recurring service credit card information, which could be a security issue as you enter your credit card into their site). Now, back to the review of the product...As mentioned, the device installed very easily. I used a ribbon cable, also purchased here on Amazon, which allowed me to hide the tracker above the dash for aesthetic reasons. So, I got it installed and secured and took the car for a drive. (Be sure to load the MotoSafety app to your smartphone). The device immediately started reporting the vehicle position, as confirmed on my smartphone. When I got back home, I logged into the MotoSafety website (using the login credentials you provided at registration) and was able to view my trip history in a very nice mapping display. In addition, I like the fact it provides a "report card" of the driving habits during the trip. Heavy braking, acceleration etc. It also indicates top speed during each trip. All and all, a very nice product. Easy install. And, most importantly, works as designed. Highly recommended!

This is more of a public notification rather than a personal review. The software and system itself I am sure works very well and when we first got the device set up we were very pleased with it. We purchased this device for our daughter to put into her car so we could track her for safety, receive a discount on our car insurance, and to ensure that she was properly servicing the vehicle as she was supposed to do. Her car is a 2007 Mercedes Benz E500. When we first connected the device it did not track. We went through the process to contact customer support. It took a couple of days to get a customer support agent on chat but they were able to resolve the issue within 30 min by sending a reset to the device. From there it tracked the car fine, with the sole exception of the fuel which it couldn't pick up from the OBD port. However, 2 1/2 weeks later while I was with my daughter in the car, thankfully, the car started going haywire. The cooling fan went to full speed, even though the car wasn't overheating, the headlights and taillights came on and wouldn't shut off, the transmission wouldn't lock out and was staying in gear, the SRS system, EPS system and brakes all threw failure alerts and the infotainment system stopped functioning. We had the car towed to a Mercedes service center and they quickly diagnosed the issue as being the tracker sending signals to the cars ECM. The technician even brought me in and showed me this by connecting the tracker which caused the car to immediately flip out then unplug it and the issues immediately stopped. However, due to the signals the tracker had sent to the ECM, the dealership had to reset the module and the infotainment system to get them to clear the errors and to function again. That cost $275.00 plus the tow bill. We contacted customer support and like before it took a few days to get them to respond. After we did, they said it could be fixed by having a reset sent to the tracker. They asked us to plug it back into the car but not to turn the car on. We did so and immediately it began sending signals to the car and the exact same issues started happening without the keys in the ignition. They went through 4 attempts to reset the system and each time the issues would stop during the devices reboot then they would come back on with additional problems. Some issues that surfaced during their testing of the device included the car attempting to start without the key in the ignition, the hazard lights coming on, the interior lights flashing, the dashboard display coming on and misreading temperature and fuel levels as well as the cars self leveling system freaking out and the air compressor pumping the shocks to the max. After 25 minutes of this going on and the support team just telling me that it would take a little longer since the device kept reverting back to its prior update, I finally disconnected the device before more damage was done to the car. I had the subscription cancelled and we are returning the device. Additionally, the car is once again back at the dealership to have the signals erased on the ECM to clear the error messages that the device caused. Although this device may work well with some cars, at least with the heavily tech based Mercedes I would not apply this device to the car as it is not a compatible device. MotoSafety support concluded this and suggested we rather purchase the hard wired version for the car but we refused to consider that option. Personally speaking, I am leery on a device that has that kind of power to affect so many critical items. The purpose of the tracker in the car is to keep my child safe. If the device has the capacity to disable the braking system, restraint system, shut down the transmission, and potentially cause ignition failure among other things, then it does the exact opposite of what we wanted it to do and puts a novice driver at a much higher risk of having a serious accident. Again, the device may work well with other car models and some users may never experience what we did and I truly hope that is the case. We will continue to look for a viable tracking system for her car to keep her safe behind the wheel but it unfortunately won't be this device.

Given 3 stars due to it being a nice little compact unit. Unfortunately i didnt get the chance to use it as it works only in the USA and still baffled why it was sent to me in tthe UK!. This wasnt mentioned in the listing so i've had to return the unit , so far at my expense.

I’m from Ontario, Canada. This product helps me keep accurate real- time location of ALL my family members. The drawback? I had to use an American address to register my tracker. Also the car computer acted a little weird for about 10mins. But I would buy another, hands down, in the future.

It's unfair that this product doesn't describe anywhere that you need to pay 20$ monthly to use it. If it was told, we would have been cautious about it.

Muy contento con el producto y muy fácil instalación muy recomendable...

My best Amazon purchase!!! Works great without issues at all after subscribing to service!! I am VERY glad and happy to with it!!
