Unlike other systems that rely on codes grabbing or RF scanning this technology is undetectable to thieves as it only sends a silent sequence of pin codes via the buttons on your vehicle's steering wheel and door panels as well as the central console. The Ghost is a revolutionary product that shields your vehicle from keyless entry theft and smart key theft.

With the increasing number of keyless entry cars that are on the road the thieves are becoming more sophisticated and using cloning equipment which can be purchased online or through the classifieds for less than PS15.

This is not enough protection, and it's easy to get criminals to jam or spoof signals to unlock your car.

Valet mode

Standard immobilisers fitted to your vehicle use an electronic chip that sends a signal. The system will then look for the code that was sent by the key to start the car. If the signal is not able to be detected the system will shut off the power and stop the car from beginning. This is the basic principle behind all immobilisers that are sold on the market and is a vital security measure to ensure that your vehicle cannot be stolen, even if a burglar has your keys or a device that could boost your key fob signal.

The app is then locked your app, and no one will ever be able to access it unless they have the same unique pin number that you have.

The system will also stop cloning, hacking and signal jamming (which can be used by thieves to bypass the immobiliser in your vehicle). This means that if a burglar does somehow get hold of your car keys or your key fob they won't be able to start your vehicle even if they're in the vicinity of only a few feet of it. They might only steal your car on a flatbed truck which is extremely unlikely.

Valet mode comes as a standard feature with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box and trunk will be locked, so that anyone stealing your car will not have any personal items to carry with them. It will also restrict the speed of your Tesla to ensure that it cannot be driven at speeds of more than 70mph and disables ludicrous mode. It will also block your driver profiles and hide your home / work addresses so that nobody else can access your personal data on your Tesla dashboard.
