- JJJohnOct 24, 20255.0My appointment was great, quick and the tech was very knowledgeable on the use of the device as a whole
- VRVeronica l RoseOct 7, 20255.0It was super chill experience and technician was polite and non-judgmental. The technician explained everything very well, asked if we had any questions. He made sure we were comfortable with it before going. It didn’t even take as long as they said that it might, which was good because my husband had to be at work. I had trouble with blowing correctly and technician helped and was patient. Only small issue I had was I went thinking I was only gonna have to pay like $38.22 that day & the again in 2 weeks another 38.22 and maybe a little bit more like with taxes and things but I ended up paying $180 and had an installment fee within that. Which was OK because I know that there can be installing fees that are higher and some fees are expected but the lady on the phone just didn’t know what I was actually really gonna be charged and told me it would be a lot less. So I think there needs to be like a more clear approach with billing and what you’re actually gonna pay because if my husband wouldn’t have been with me, I don’t know if I would’ve had the amount of money that I actually needed. So, just better communication between the people that are on the phones and talking to the customers and the people that are Actually installing it. But all in all it was a great experience and I’ve been waiting for 20 years to do this so I’m grateful to finally be back on the road and that I’m able to do this and get back on the road quicker! Thanks Smart Start!

How do I know if Smart Start's devices are compliant with my program?

Requirements will differ by state, but generally your state authority must grant removal authorization before you can have your IID removed. You will then need to fill out the Device Removal Request form on our website and upload any official documentation that may be required to authorize the removal.
Do I need an Interlock Device on all of my vehicles?
Some states will require that you have an Ignition Interlock Device installed on all cars registered to you, but most states will just require that whichever vehicle you drive have an IID installed. Check with your state authority to see if you will need an IID installed on all of your cars.
Does the Interlock Device mess up or hurt my vehicle?
No, Smart Start's Ignition Interlock Device (IID) will not hurt your vehicle in any way. Our service technicians are the best in the business and are able to install on all vehicles, even hybrids and electric cars!

How do I use an Interlock Device?

Exact IID prices will vary by state, but you can find our current pricing on our Ignition Interlock Cost page on our website. Our expert Program Advisors are also available to provide you a custom quote and schedule your installation today!
How does an Interlock Device work?
When you blow into your Ignition Interlock Device, you're providing a breath test sample in order to start the vehicle. The device then measures your Breath Alcohol Concentration (BrAC), and will either say that you passed, need to retest, or failed. You will be asked to take rolling retests throughout your drive.
What can breathalyzers detect?
Breathalyzers only measure your Breath Alcohol Concentration (BrAC).
Is an Ignition Interlock the same as a breathalyzer?
Ignition Interlock and handheld breathalyzers both test your Breath Alcohol Concentration (BrAC), but an Ignition Interlock Device is only installed in vehicles and prevents the car from starting if there is alcohol detected. A handheld breathalyzer only detects alcohol and may tell you the concentration.
Can I unplug my Ignition Interlock?
Check with your state authority to see if you are allowed to unplug your Ignition Interlock before doing so.
Can someone else drive my car?
Yes, but whoever is driving the vehicle MUST take a breath test and pass before driving. Any failed test will still be your responsibility.
