Vehicle security systems provide essential protection against theft and unauthorized access by incorporating advanced features such as one-way and two-way communication, remote start functionality, and keyless entry. One-way systems send commands from the remote to the vehicle, while two-way systems offer real-time feedback on security status. Many alarms also include a starter kill switch, which prevents the engine from starting if the system is triggered, enhancing theft deterrence. Security-only systems focus on alarm activation and entry protection, while full-featured models integrate remote start for added convenience in extreme weather conditions.
