Car Audio

Why should I get a new car audio system?

If your current car audio system isn't the greatest, an upgrade can make a huge difference in sound quality. In addition, new car audio systems usually have updated features, such as smartphone compatibility!

Your car's audio system involves a lot of wiring that can be confusing to someone with no experience. That is why you should bring your vehicle to Kent's Kar Stereo & Window Tinting! Our experts can install your new audio system in no time at all, so you can listen to your favorite tunes.

Navigation Systems

How does my vehicle's navigation system know where I am?

A navigation system uses two things to track your location and the route to your destination. The Global Positioning System (GPS) communicates with several satellites to determine your location. Roadmaps and software are able to track your path to your destination.

How accurate are navigation systems?

Today's navigation systems are very accurate. Constantly recalculating your position, most navigation systems will have accuracy ratings within 15 feet of where you are.

GPS Tracking System

What is GPS tracking?

The GPS tracking system consists of two parts. The tracking device in the vehicle and the software that reads the location data. The device transmits the vehicle’s location to a server, where the software interprets and displays the information. This allows you to track your car anywhere on Earth.

How does GPS tracking work?

Since the GPS tracking system transmits a signal, the US Fleet Tracking system is able to read it and update it every ten seconds. This gives a complete picture, in real-time of the location and route the vehicle is taking.

Car Alarms

Will adding a car alarm void my vehicle's warranty?

Absolutely not. By law, any aftermarket car alarm that is properly installed will not void a vehicle's warranty.

Which car alarm system is best for me?

The choice of car alarm depends on your own specific needs. Different car alarms come equipped with different features and our experts can help you choose the right option for your needs and budget.

My car was built with an anti-theft system, why should I install an aftermarket car alarm?

Most factory security systems can be disabled easily, making them more susceptible to theft. An aftermarket car alarm has a higher-pitched and louder siren that usually deters unwanted guests. In addition, aftermarket systems usually have shock or sound sensors as well, meaning they will alarm if someone breaks a window.
