If I knew, I would tell you. These cars are not as safe as we all thought?
And without the Enform app or the SOS that comes equipped with all US Lexus models, we here in Canada do not have the luxury of having any tracking device.
If I get a new IS, I will be installing a Viper alarm system.

This i very true!
I have done a lot of research on this.
It is ironic these systems are supposed to be "safe" yet, it has proven to make it easier for car thieves.
