MY CUSTOMER WAS NOT AWARE THAT THE INVOLVED VEHICLE HAD A THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM, MANUFACTURED BY "KARR" AND DISTRIBUTED BY AUDIOVOX WITH INSTALLERS NATIONWIDE. I HAVE BEEN ACTIVELY INVOLVED WITH GM DEALERSHIPS FOR OVER FORTY YEARS AND POSSESS A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE IN PARTS AND SERVICE EXPERIENCE.
