RINGWOOD, NJ — Dealer Owned Warranty Company (DOWC®), a provider and administrator of F&I products and services, announces its partnership with Keyfetch Automotive USA.

We are in the business of helping drivers protect their investment in their vehicles.

Keyfetch Auto Protect provides customers with a unique keychain that reunites lost valuables with their owners quickly, safely, and anonymously, and is backed by a service contract administered by DOWC that covers the cost to replace a lost key or remote. Emergency towing up to fifty (50) miles and lock-out services are also included, providing additional consumer protection.

“We are proud to offer Keyfetch on our menu of products,” stated Michael LaMotta, founder of DOWC. “The Keyfetch technology is simply awesome and with a DOWC service contract it is seamless for dealers to provide and drivers to use.”

Keyfetch Automotive USA’s technology creates a private and anonymous link between the owner and finder of lost keys, keyfobs and remotes to assist in returning lost keys via web-based communication. Consumers are registered at a MYKEYBACK website, and if keys are lost, the finder is instructed to visit the website to contact the consumer instantly and anonymously. The system is available online 24/7/365. The unique technology connects owners and finders directly in the quickest, safest, and most efficient way possible.

“We achieve up to an 85% recovery rate thanks to our unique online retrieval system designed to protect members’ personal information at all times,” boasts Cristian Stenstrom, co-founder of Keyfetch Automotive USA.

“We are in the business of helping drivers protect their investment in their vehicles,” says LaMotta, “and offering Keyfetch Auto Protect to reunite consumers with their lost keys is a no-brainer.”

The Keyfetch Auto Protect Service Contract can be included as a pre-sale item at the time of vehicle purchase or lease, as a dealer upsell option. Keyfetch keychains can be private-label branded for the dealership, credit union, or repair facility. And, participating facilities have the option of providing custom dealer-branded keychains and retrieval websites to their customers, providing seamless key recovery service.

Keyfetch is just one of a full suite of customizable products available to DOWC partner dealers and their customers.
