RVDA in the U.S. has joined with RVDA of Canada to endorse KYCS Locate, an inventory location and theft prevention solution. The program is now available in the U.S. through Brown & Brown Dealer Services (BBDS).
Locate is designed for inventory location and, according to the company, is suitable for trailers and motorhomes. Unlike many GPS-based inventory trackers, there are no monthly subscription fees. The device’s self-powered battery lasts up to five years and can be quickly transferred from one RV to another. There is no need for wiring, and the device can be installed in seconds using powerful built-in magnets or an adhesive.
Locate will update the RV’s location at least once a day on the KYCS web portal and mobile application. If the RV is stolen or goes missing, the KYCS monitoring team can remotely program the Locate device to actively track the RV.
“A number of dealers in the U.S. and Canada are already using the device to keep track of RVs on the lot or in transit,” said KYCS Global’s Vice President, Special Market, Jason Lyall. “With the number of vehicles reported stolen on the rise, Locate provides dealerships and consumers with a true theft recovery device.”
