Will the GPS be removed after the car loan is paid off?
1 Answers
When the car loan is fully repaid, the GPS will be removed. Since car loan terms are relatively short, lending companies may reuse the remaining lifespan and battery of the GPS devices for installation on other customers' vehicles after loans are issued. Upon loan settlement, some institutions may share this cost with the car owner as per prior agreements and refund the GPS installation fee. Banks or auto finance companies install GPS devices in vehicles primarily to mitigate risks. If the borrower experiences severe payment delays or defaults during the repayment period, the lender can locate the financed vehicle through GPS tracking, repossess it, and only return the vehicle after the borrower fulfills their obligations.
