Default This is Unreal???

Just read this.. Seems this company goes to dealerships and installs these GPS units in cars. Owners do not know about the unit and if the person falls behind on the payments they disable the car via a computer? Then when the repo man comes they can activate the horn so he can find it easier. A disgruntled worker screwed with 100 cars they installed these devices in? This is bull.. Wonder if this unit could cause stuff to go wrong with cars or bad dealerships use them to make money on cars that they purposly cause to not run? Is this stuff legal???

That's BS ....I can see a lotta dealers being sued over the wrong paperwork...etc. But i'd uninstall the gps unit. they arent hard to disable.
