Surprisingly smooth experience with Intoxalock — anyone else?
Hey everyone!
Just wanted to drop in and share my experience with Intoxalock, since I know a lot of the reviews online tend to be pretty negative — and honestly, I was nervous at first too. But so far, things have gone way better than expected.
Installation was quick and easy. The shop they sent me to was professional, explained everything clearly, and walked me through how the device works. I was in and out in less than two hours.
The device itself is pretty straightforward to use. Yeah, it takes a little getting used to at first, but after a day or two, it becomes part of the routine. I’ve had no false positives, no major issues, and it’s been reliable even during cold mornings.
One thing I was really worried about was the battery drain — but I haven’t had any problems. I do drive my car almost daily though, so that might help keep everything charged. I also make sure to follow their tips (like not leaving it plugged in if I’m not using the car for a while).
Their app has actually been helpful too. I get reminders for calibrations, and I like being able to manage payments and info easily through my phone.
Not saying it’s perfect — I’m sure it depends on where you get it installed and how often you drive — but I figured I’d share some positivity in case anyone’s feeling anxious before getting one.
