@@andrewhamilton2078 No issues with any make or models - we've installed it into a dozen cars so far. The wiring is pretty simple= The kill switch can be connected to either the starter or key immobilizer sensor to make it a simple system. It works consistently and the only real issue is that the app crashes sometimes, but that started with the new app update. It doesn't draw too much juice from the battery. I've had cars sit for about a week and no problems.
Only problem i had with a lockbox over the window is the renter not locking it back up after their trip. Other than that its the best way. I use to do the key in the gas tank thing but alot of guest didnt like it because when they brought the car back they were nervous someone could easily take the keys and would be their fault so i definitely don’t recommend that one unless have no choice.
I had a car stolen with a lockbox - definitely not a solution. Lately I’ve been having my cars at a lot that holds the keys but it comes with a cost so I’m looking for other solutions.
Yes, this is the worst thing about Lockboxes. It literally tells any bad people, there is a good chance there are keys to This car here. With an increase in crime & stolen cars, I want nothing to do with them.
Great channel and videos. Quick question, just had a guy return my beautiful Lincoln mkz with the classic minor front bumber parking block scratch. 🤦 Should I file a claim? If I don't any future damage may be denied by turo because of a pre-existing scratch... But if I do, it's such a hassle
This type of damage is always best to work out directly with the guest... just send them the before & after photos & say you have a guy that can fix it for a couple hundred $'s. If you want to be by the book, be sure to mark that there is damage (when you checkout) but you prefer to work directly with the guest. This legally allows you to accept money by PayPal, Venmo, or Cash App for payment.
I do not personally do this, but other successful hosts do. Basically you 1) purchase a small sheet of aluminum maybe 1/4" thick from home depot or lowes. 2) drill 2 holes the same locations as the plate 3) Attach Behind the plate so the sheet hangs off 1 side by 2" 4) Use the 2" side to hold the Lockbox on 5) Use security screws to prevent theft.
