Renting out cars on Turo can be profitable, but it also comes with risks like theft, late returns, and unauthorized use. Traditional security measures like GPS tracking and key handovers aren’t always enough. With MoboKey’s remote kill switch, Turo hosts can:

  • Prevent renters from driving off without authorization

  • Disable the engine remotely in case of late returns or disputes

  • Ensure only verified renters have access to the vehicle

  • Monitor and control car usage without being physically present


How MoboKey’s Remote Kill Switch Works for Turo Rentals

1. Remote Engine Kill for Unauthorized Use

  • If a renter fails to return the car on time or misuses it, you can remotely disable the engine (when the car is parked).

  • Prevents unauthorized driving and reduces risk of theft.

2. Smartphone-Based Access Control

  • Only approved renters can start the car using the MoboKey app.

  • Grant or revoke access instantly from anywhere.

3. Enhanced Security for Late or Non-Paying Renters

  • If a renter doesn’t pay or refuses to return the car, you can remotely shut down the engine and prevent further use.

  • Protects against revenue loss and reduces the risk of car damage.

4. Peace of Mind for Turo Hosts

  • Track vehicle status and usage remotely.

  • Avoid repossession costs by controlling access in real time.

  • Get notified when the car is accessed or started.
