Whenever you insert your ignition key into the ignition switch and turn it to ON, it checks, determines and verifies if the ignition key is valid or not. This is a PIN code that is in the immobilizer system and in you’re key. This PIN number is held with Kia Canada INC secure database, it can not be accessed by anyone except by Kia employees for security reasons. "All Kia Vehicles have an immobilizer password it is a six digit PIN number. The response from Kia shown below wasn't much help either and also written pretty badly as well. Stealth immobiliser is currently live on Kickstarter for crowdfunding support, though at the time of writing, it’s still far from reaching its $94,947 goal.I was also concerned about this issue and wrote to Kia since what the dealer told me didn't make sense in relation to what is in the Owner's Manual ( it is written rather poorly!).
The device is controlled via mobile apps, so users can configure new PINs whenever they want and choose from any combination of buttons to protect their cars. Stealth Immobiliser works silently and invisibly so that thieves won't even suspect that it's there, and if you put your vehicle in for service, you can turn it into service mode, turning the device off so that no one even knows you have installed it in the vehicle,” the parent company explains.
“ Even if someone makes a copy of your key, Stealth Immobiliser protects your vehicle, preventing anyone from using it unless they enter your PIN code. In other words, even if the thieves attempt to find the device, it could take forever until they figure out where it is and then disconnect it. The device connects to the Canbus wires of the vehicle, so in theory, it can be located pretty much anywhere in the car. If the correct combination isn’t provided, Stealth Immobiliser doesn’t allow the engine to start, essentially making it impossible for the car to be stolen. The PIN code is a combination of buttons that you need to press after getting behind the wheel. Stealth Immobiliser is a device whose purpose is to deal with the whole problem with a new-gen approach, allowing any driver out there to configure a PIN code to protect their car.Įverything works like on a mobile phone, for example, as you need to enter the PIN code before being able to turn on the device.
