Chubb has launched a vehicle tracking system in the UK that will help protect the insurer’s customers from car theft.
With criminals now often targeting high-value vehicles – particularly “keyless” models – Chubb S5 Vehicle Tracker and Chubb S5 Vehicle Tracker Plus are suitable for any vehicle make or model and come with a range of features. The trackers, introduced in partnership with Global Telemetrics, a stolen vehicle recovery and billing platform, are available to customers of Chubb’s UK Personal Risk Services (PRS).
Stephen Vaughan, Head of Personal Risk Services Europe, Chubb said: “The number of luxury vehicles stolen has increased significantly in recent years as car thieves deploy ever-more sophisticated technology. Chubb’s vehicle trackers have been developed to provide the highest available level of security for our customers to help protect their vehicles and provide them with peace of mind.”
Features of the new service
Features include driver recognition, remote deactivation and a phone app that provides live location details, journey history and geofence creation, which means the tracker sends an alert when the vehicle goes outside a defined area. Chubb S5 Vehicle Tracker Plus also offers enhanced security against keyless theft with its “No Tag, No Start” feature that immobilises a vehicle when the driver detection card is not in range or switched off.
For car owners with multiple vehicles, individual trackers can be installed and linked to one driver detection card, designed to fit securely within a purse or wallet.
