Imagine being able to connect and communicate with your family's vehicles each day. With features such as vehicle location history, fuel savings reports, vehicle diagnostic reports and text blocking capabilities, there’s truly no better way to connect with your car than Car Connection!  


Car Connection, by Audiovox, is a wonderful way to be "in touch" with your vehicle. Not only can you maximize fuel economy, you can also monitor your own driving habits, locate your vehicle, and even diagnose performance and mechanical problems before poo hits the fan. That's right. With Car Connection, there's a good chance of finding out what's going on with your car so you'll know before even the mechanic does! (This can save loads of money at the shop, by the way. An educated customer is less likely to be ripped-off in an unethical shop!)

Another awesome feature of the Car Connection is that it can block text-messaging while driving. I personally do not text while driving AT ALL. I think it's horribly unsafe and just asking for a problem. However, I know a lot of families have teen drivers who may not be so careful. When we're teens, we're invincible, right? (Wrong.) Anyway, using this unit can help parents make sure that their teens' eyes are on the road rather than on their phones while driving.

Car Connection is easy to use. You simply plug it into your vehicle and you're ready to go! I didn't install it myself because I am truly awful at installing or assembling anything. So Dan does these things for me. In this case, he came in extra handy, since he is a service manager at an auto repair shop and was a technician for many years before that. Yep. I am married to a car guy. 

Now that Car Connection is installed, you can access all of your data from your phone! That's right. This baby works with your phone. It doesn't get much more convenient than that! You can track your fuel mileage, see where you've been, and check diagnostic reports. 

If your vehicle is already programmed for remote starting, you can control that from your phone, too. (If your vehicle isn't equipped, you will need your mechanic to implement that feature before Car Connection will work in this way.)

Overall, this is one nifty device that can definitely come in very handy for motorists of all ages. I absolutely love all of the information it provides, as well as how easy it is to use and understand. 

However, in the name of being totally transparent, there are some issues my husband made me promise to address. When we received this unit, I was very excited to have it in my Mercedes E350 4Matic. Dan immediately said NO WAY. You see, in some cars like my Mercedes, everything is run electrically, through the vehicle's computer system. These and other plug-in kind of products can cause performance issues in the vehicle because they "slow down" the computer. This means that timing may be off, which while driving, is not a good thing, and may make a car act "funny". So instead, we will be using this on his older, less-complicated, Chevy Suburban. He says that in HIS car, it definitely won't create any issues. 

So my advice? Before using this or any other add-on product, be sure to check with your trusted mechanic to see if there may be compatibility issues down the road. For most cars, these will be fine, but for certain vehicles, they aren't ideal. 

I would still absolutely recommend this product to anyone looking for an easy way to improve their relationship with their car. That sounds like a silly way to put it, but it's true. Using Car Connection will put you more in-tune with your vehicle, which may just lead to safer, better, more fuel-efficient driving. And when you love your car, your car will love you back. (This comes right from my "car guy" hubby's mouth.) Plus, the text-blocking feature alone makes it well worth the investment! 

Along with all of the exciting features of Car Connection, we now offer the Car Connection Insurance Discount Program! Our Insurance Discount Program is an opportunity for all of our Car Connection customers to save hundreds of dollars on their auto insurance.  Simply click the link below and follow the instructions to be on your path to savings! http://www.mycar-connection.com/insurance/

I like Car Connection tracks the vehicle when running every 5 minutes. The customer can login to the user portal to instantly track the vehicle.

I would love to be able to track where my teenager is! Also the cell phone restriction while driving.

I really like the alerts that help you understand what needs to be replaced or fixed on the car. I never want to be stranded anywhere or need a tow, I'd much rather deal with problems before they get to that point, so being alerted would be great.

I like that they offer insurance rate discounts, and that it doesn't require a professional install - thats always a plus!
