In addition, you will be able to see the location of the vehicle at all times, plan a route, search for public parking in the area you need, have access to the list of trips made by the vehicle and access the details of each one of them.

Finally, it includes the CarConnect Alarm Assistant functionality,a secure alert notification system through which the customer is informed through a mobile notification of any anomaly in the vehicle and, if there is no read confirmation, an SMS is sent and an automatic call is made to both him and the trusted contacts you have defined.
