Anti-theft and insurance question
Hi folks,
I have the Toyota added anti-theft alarm and am currently receiving a passive device discount from my insurance company. However, does the TCH have an active disabling anti-theft device as well?
Thanks!
Mike

Re: Anti-theft and insurance question
I'm not sure what the insurance company's definition of active vs passive would be. In my opinion the alarm system is active (as in you actively arm it) and your SmartKey is your passive system (it is there without any further action required on your part) since the car cannot be started without the key.

According to my insurance company (belairdirect), a passive system is an alarm system that makes noise, but doesn't stop you from driving the car. An active system is one which also immobilizes the car, making it undriveable. The TCH qualifies as having an active system even before you add the Toyota alarm.

Thanks for the clarification on active vs. passive.
