SkyLINK Stolen Vehicle Recovery Device Qualifies for Additional Advance by National Auto Financier
Phoenix -Inilex, a provider of intelligent telemetry solutions for vehicles, announced that a major national auto financier approved the SkyLINK stolen vehicle recovery solution as an F&I product for which it will provide a loan advance. This means that customers can include the cost of SkyLINK into their overall new car financing, making the solution more attractive to customers as well as to dealers during the F&I process.
“By integrating the cost of SkyLINK into their overall loan, more customers can access the benefits of vehicle recovery and monitoring,” said Michael Maledon, CEO. “In addition, dealers have an attractive and high-value anti-theft solution to offer as part of their F&I service lines.”
SkyLINK uses GPS technology to give car buyers real-time theft recovery that also helps law enforcement identify and arrest thieves.
“Having SkyLINK incorporated into the customer's financing allows us to offer higher value solutions during the F&I process at minimal impact to the customer,” said Dora Hermann, finance director, Camelback Volkswagen, Subaru and Mazda in Arizona. “It's a mutually beneficial arrangement for us and for customers who will gain an excellent theft-recovery solution."
Inilex also delivers InilexGPS and InilexGPS Fleet, which are customizable platforms for large enterprise accounts to manage vehicle fleets, mitigate risk and track inventories in real time, enabling companies to connect to their mobile assets and workforces.
