My previous comment was directed at the fact that insurance companies can deny claims for disabling safety features on a vehicle. Insurance companies will consider defeating an alarm disabling a safety feature. I asked my agent and verified the question with a claims adjuster who is a friend of mine. He is actually instructed to look for things like that when assessing a vehicle for damages. Insurance companies , while not openly admitting it, look for any reason to deny a coverage or lower their cost on it. The comment I made is in no way an afront to those who choose to do it. To each their own, as such, opinions are the same way.
Thats why insurance companys spend so much time in court. They try to wiggle out of there side of the deal
