- LTLaura TerryDec 6, 20245.0Top notch customer service and absolutely can’t beat the price of a calibration here…😁👍🏻
- KSKevin SimsMay 20, 20211.0Very good service so far but I have only had one dealing with them. So hopefully afterwards they will ask me for another review when I know more. One thing is certain and that’s the fact that you won’t drive yourself anywhere if you’ve had any alcohol at all. But that’s a good thing. When I posted this it was right after I had it installed which was no problem at all. Getting it removed is a totally different experience. My six months was up and every time the device said that I needed a recalibration within the next five days I took it to the service provider. Sometimes the same day. Well I had to get them to send me a record of my calibration checks showing the exact dates which I found out later had to be at least 25 days apart. Not necessarily when the device gives you the notice. But they don’t bother to explain that to you when you start. So those two months that I carried it in a day early didn’t count. I found out about this from the DDS of Georgia. The first document that they sent had the right dates but half of them had the wrong year which I didn’t even notice until I got it to the DDS. It took a month to get them to send that first one. Every time I would call them and they would connect me to customer service it was always a person that I could barely understand because of the poor English and they would act as though they had no idea what I was talking about. So I would have to explain it all over again and keep waiting. The whole time they were still drawing that money from my bank account. At one point they told me that the DDS had said that I would have to have it six more months. That was a lie. I did have to keep it an extra two months because I had it calibrated too early twice trusting that they were telling me the right time to go back. I’ve never been so disappointed and angry about a companies actions and bad customer service. As long as they can keep that device in your car you have to pay them. When I finally got the document and it was right and four different trips to the DDS they had the nerve to ask me if I would volunteer to keep it six more months. DO NOT DEAL WITH INTOXALOCK! If you do you’ll certainly regret it. JK Sims
Frequently Asked Questions About Intoxalock Ignition Interlock
How does an interlock device work?
An ignition interlock device (IID) is a small breathalyzer installed in your vehicle to prevent it from starting if alcohol is detected on your breath. Before driving, you'll blow into the device. If your breath alcohol concentration (BrAC) is below the programmed limit, the car starts. Periodic retests occur during your trip to ensure continued compliance. To read more on Intoxalock, you can read our ignition interlock device guide.
What is the cost of an ignition interlock device?
The installation of an ignition interlock device, often called a car breathalyzer, typically costs between $70 and $150. This one-time fee is paid at the start of your lease and covers the service center's labor to install the device in your vehicle. Payment is made directly to the service center at the time of installation. For more on cost breakdowns, you can read our cost of ignition interlock device guide.
How do I use my interlock device?
Using an IID is simple. To start your vehicle, blow into the device as directed. If the device detects no alcohol, your car will start. You may be prompted for "rolling retests" while driving, where you’ll blow into the device again to confirm compliance. How-to videos are also available on the Intoxalock mobile app.

Ignition interlock devices can be installed at certified service centers nationwide. Intoxalock offers a convenient network of locations and helps you schedule an installation appointment near you.

Installing an ignition interlock device typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on your vehicle type. Certified technicians ensure the device is properly installed and provide you with training on how to use it. Contact Intoxalock for an appointment and an accurate time estimate for your installation.
What happens if I fail a breath test on my ignition interlock device?
If you fail a breath test, your vehicle will not start, and the device will log the event. Depending on your state’s regulations, multiple failed tests may trigger additional penalties, such as lockouts or reporting to your monitoring authority. Intoxalock devices allow you to retest after a short wait if alcohol is no longer detected. Always follow your state’s guidelines to remain compliant.
Can I install an ignition interlock device in a vehicle I don’t own?
Yes, in most cases, you can install an ignition interlock device in a vehicle you regularly drive, even if you’re not the registered owner. However, the vehicle owner must provide consent for the installation. Intoxalock works with you and the owner to ensure compliance with state regulations and the successful setup of the device.
What should I do if my ignition interlock device locks me out?
If your ignition interlock device locks you out, it’s usually due to missed tests, failed tests, or state-specific requirements.
