    I don't think mangyayari yun....kasi its only the engine which is going to stop and the brake would still surely function pa rin.

    So mag-freewheeling lang muna yung car until the momentum slows down or until they step on the brake...

    ....baka you were thinking na parang airplane yan na pag tumigil ang engine e malamang mag-crush....

    peace.

    BACK to topic....yung kapit bahay ko nagDIY din ng remote start and stop...pero hindi ko lang alam kung merun pa siyang stocks nito...he bought several units from US. Last time ang asking price nya was P5k for the unit and the install...his unit didn't have an alarm (hiwalay bale).

    how about a remote system that deflates gradually the front tires? baka mas safer ito sa lahat both carjackers/innocent victims, and the carjackers may not blame you

    OT: maganda ayan...kaso wala pa yatang ganyang system. So far, a fuel shut-off valve na remotely controlled lang ang nakikita kong pedeng magamit.

    siguro bore a hole on two front rims, put a tube on each front tire, i-parallel sa axis yun tube with an almost 90 degree end, ah wait lumiliko pala yun front tires. sa 2 rear tires na lang mas ok. then put a radio-controlled electronic mechanism or gsm-controlled to open a valve and suck the air to the tubes, and release gradually sa ilalim sa inner side ng tires ...

    meron ako sa carmander ko na alarm pero hindi mapagana ng mga technician. Sabi sa akin may part pa daw na iniinstall para mapagana yun autoignition.Si rey electrical tinanggihan nga ikabit yun alarm ko baka daw hindi nila mapagana lahat ng features. Meron pa nga pangbukas ng trunk automatic. Napagana lang yun signal lights na iilaw at yun horns na button (separate) and automatic adjustment ng sensitivity.

    That's exactly where the danger lies. When you cut off the engine, you also cut off the juice to the car's electrical functions, which includes power-assisted brakes. Without electricity, it takes at least twice the effort to stop a moving car.

    Even the Adventure's owners manual warns that extra care should be taken when using the brakes, in cases where the vehicle has to be towed due to engine failure.

    Also, power-assisted steering becomes very heavy when power is cut off, eventually locking itself as a security measure. You may want to think about that too, the next time you run your car at 100kph and you suddenly decide to shut the engine for a little free-wheeling.

    Clifford has alarms with remote engine start/off features. The high end ones also has anti-carjack features. During a carjacking, the alarm waits a certain time before arming itself to disable the car. As soon as the carjackers slow down or stop during this time for traffic or a traffic light, the engine will now die, simulating a car problem. These one costed around Php12k around 9yrs ago.
