| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Audi s4 auto alarm/immobilizer can be easily deactivated. deactivation through punching a screwdriver through the drivers side door key lock, will automatically disengage the both the car's alarm and its immobilizer. so far, i personally know of more than 30 vehicles being stolen whilst using this method in the state of new jersey alone in the past year. i have personally had to take action through installing additional security modifications, risking nullification of the manufacturers warranty, in order to prevent and avoid vehicle theft. *jb |
