Murrieta, Calif. — Sekurus Inc., the manufacturer of ON TIME, the patented starter interrupt system that ensures timely collection of customer car payments, announced the introduction of iLocate, an innovative global positioning system (GPS) that also utilizes the latest in digital cell phone technology in conjunction with a user-friendly Website.

The new device enables the dealers and owners of both new and pre-owned cars to wirelessly track and ultimately control their vehicles from anywhere in the world, using secure Internet and interactive voice response (IVR) applications. Sekurus is exhibiting its new iLocate GPS system and other offerings at the NADA show in San Francisco at the Moscone Center from Feb. 9–12 at booth #3621W.

Once installed in a vehicle, the owner can always track the car, no matter who the driver is or where the final destination might be. In addition to a detailed location, the iLocate Website (www.iLocateGPS.com) provides logged-in users with additional information, including the speed the car is traveling, a history page with previous locations and printable map with zoom capabilities.

The digital wireless capabilities of iLocate allow the user to remotely start or disable a turned off vehicle in less than 20 seconds, as well as lock and unlock the doors and windows. Even without Internet access, these decisions can be conveniently made through the simple use of text features on the owner's cell phone. Customers can also sign up to receive alerts by cell phone text and e-mail if the driver of their vehicle exceeds a pre-set speed limit or drives into unapproved territory.

"Besides providing dealers and customers with the surest way to guard against theft, iLocate also delivers the best peace of mind when you have loaned your car to a family member or friend," said Mike Simon, president of Sekurus. "Whether it is a new teenage driver or elderly family member behind the wheel, you can seamlessly track where they are and how safely they are driving. For far too long, car owners have had to relinquish all control every time their vehicle left the driveway."

In an effort to deliver greater consumer choice and flexibility, iLocate also provides three different price plans that offer pay-as-you-go options for each individual user.

In addition, every iLocate customer is given complimentary access to its iConnect concierge service. By simply calling a toll free number, customers are directly connected to a 24-hour operator who can fulfill a variety of requests and enquiries, ranging from driving directions and weather reports to restaurant recommendations and reservations. Since the customer's cell phone is kept on file, each iConnect call is customized to that individual's ongoing needs and a wide array of information and answers can also be text messaged directly to the user from the operator.
