Can I Switch Ignition Interlock Providers

Not happy with your current Ignition Interlock Device (IID) provider? Tired of hidden fees and terrible service? You don’t have to stick with a company that you feel you can’t rely on. If you’re in this situation, it’s time to switch Ignition Interlock providers.

Need to Switch IID Providers?

Smart Start makes it easy for individuals who’d like to switch to us from another IID company. In fact, we will set up your installation appointment on the same day as your device removal from your former vendor. That way, you can get back on the road with a reliable IID in no time. In addition, this means you won’t have a gap in your reports to your monitoring authority. Clients also value our month-by-month lease fee instead of being stuck in a long-term contract.

Keep in mind that you cannot drive your vehicle without an Ignition Interlock! Ask a friend or family member to take you in your vehicle to your new provider’s service center.

How do I Switch Ignition Interlock Providers?

First, you’ll need to let your monitoring authority know that you’re switching providers. Your monitoring authority could be your probation officer or your state’s DMV office. In some states, you may need your monitoring authority’s permission before changing vendors.
