How Much Does an Ignition Interlock Cost in Tennessee?
The cost for an Ignition Interlock Device (IID) depends on multiple factors. The fees you’ll pay can vary between states and cities, as well as the individual requirements of your program.
Your Interlock Device is a lease, rather than a purchase. There’s no long-term contract, just an affordable monthly lease with Smart Start.

- Vehicle Specifics
- Costs may be higher to install an IID on certain types of vehicles, especially hybrid and electric vehicles.
