The system also offers a 'valet mode', which allows you to disable the system and block your car from being driven by valets or service center personnel without the correct keys.

The Ghost device is distinct from traditional immobilisers that can be disarmed by using professional diagnostic tools. It utilizes the onboard network to communicate with ECUs and cannot be altered. It's a sealed device, which means it is impossible to listen into the circuits, which makes it near impossible for thieves to detect the distinctive clicking noise that traditional immobiliser relays produce.

This technology is also not susceptible to jamming devices utilized by high-tech thieves. Furthermore, since it works on the CAN data network it's also unaffected by other diagnostic tools. This makes it a great anti-theft tool for any modern vehicle.
