I just purchased a new Ford 4X4 and have a "neighbor" who has probably installed a gps on it. He has done this to older vehicles I have as well. Two months ago, I located a non working remote start on a 2001 Silverado that he somehow had turned into a gps system. I have two gps testers that help me locate such devices. He does this so he can vandalize my house/property when both my wife and are gone. He has other people who stalk us while we are driving as well. I have two questions: 1) The complete remote start was taken out by a certified mechanic who thought that telephone numbers could be taken from the control box. Is this true. If so, how? 2) does the new vehicle have a gps that he could make use of easily so I could get stalked? (I was being stalked today as I drove the new truck.) Could this be located and removed? My gps tester signals are very weak which indicates it is probably under the truck. He and others have access to know every move I make when the gps is turned on. It is usually ina sleep mode until I begin to drive. Please advise.

SLIP IN AN OFF DUTY COP TO YOUR HOUSE (CROUCHED IN YOUR TRUCK)

THEN BOTH OF Y'ALL LEAVE FOR A WHILE OR LET YOUR PAL DRIVE THAT PUPPY OFF TO A DISTANT LOCATION AND YOU STAY AT HOME

THEN THERE'S THE "LET'S JUST MOVE OPTION"

I RECKON YOU HAVE EXPLORED THE "LET'S GO TO THE AUTHORITIES OPTION"?

SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE A LOCATER, IT CAN'T SEEK IT OUT ANY BETTER?

DEALER CAN'T SHED ANY LIGHT?

YA KNOW, DEPENDING ON SKILL AND PERSISTENCE, MIGHT NEAR ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, MISSILES COULD BE PROBABLY BE LAUNCHED WITH AN OLD FLIP PHONE!

HOW 'BOUT STRADDLING THE DITCH AND GIVE THE UNDERSIDE AND CROOKS AND CRANNIES A GOOD WASHIN'? POORLY SEALED 'LECTRONICS MIGHT NOT LIKE THAT.

SO THE BEST ANSWER I CAN GIVE IS, IF THIS ALL FACTUAL, IT WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN 'TIL YOU STOP THE SOURCE.

I COULD 'SPLAIN OPTIONS THAT I MIGHT TRY (AS I'M A WELL TRAINED AIRBORNE RANGER OF THE '80s). #1 THING TO REMEMBER, "ONLY YOU" CAN KEEP YOUR OWN SECRETS. A WW II POPULAR SAYING/ LOGO WAS "LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS"

SORRY, KINDA CAN'T GO ANY FURTHER, WITH MY OWN PERSONAL SOLUTIONS, AND I'M SURE NOT ADVOCATING ANYTHING ILLEGAL!

GOOD LUCK!

Thank you for your information. Does a 2015 Ford F150 (or any new Ford) have a gps device in it that just needs to be activated? I understand that satellite radio might require use of a gps system already installed in the electronic system and just needs to be activated. I did not wish to use this optional feature. Perhaps you might be able to provide some information regarding this feature. Thank you.
