Stoneacre offers customers Tracker device
Stoneacre Motor Group is offering past, present and future customers the option of having a Stolen Vehicle Recovery (SVR) device from Tracker fitted.
The new partnership aims to protect customers against the rising threat of keyless vehicle theft which has increased significantly in recent years.
In 2020, 93% of the stolen vehicles Tracker recovered had been taken by thieves using technology to intercept keyless car fob signals, an increase of 27% over the last five years.
Gerry George, aftersales director for Stoneacre, said: “As a market leader in SVR solutions, Tracker’s brand is widely recognised and respected, which is why we employed its solutions to manage and protect our own fleet of company cars and courtesy vehicles.
“And we have experienced first-hand the benefits of Tracker’s SVR capabilities when our vehicles were stolen but quickly recovered, courtesy of Tracker and its police partnership. Following our own positive experience, we wanted to share these benefits with our customers, which is why we are not only offering SVR solutions to new customers, but existing customers too.
“Our customers, whether private buyers or fleet business customers, know they can trust Stoneacre to not only provide them with the right new or used vehicle but also take care of it throughout their ownership experience. Now we are going a step further by offering them the best solution to help protect their vehicle from the very real and growing threat of theft.”
Mark Rose, managing director for Tracker added: “Private owners, company car and van drivers, and fleet managers alike are increasingly aware of how tech-savvy vehicle thieves are today. Stoneacre is meeting a need by addressing these concerns and helping its customers to protect the vehicles they buy or lease. The interest-free finance offer ensures this protection is accessible to all buyers, adding value and improving the customer experience still further, whilst also adding a new revenue stream to help dealers navigate market challenges.”
