Here's why:
* Ford's own tracking system, FordPass Connect, wasn't introduced until later model years. The FordPass Connect system allows for remote start, location tracking, and other features.
* 2012 models likely wouldn't have been equipped with the necessary hardware for such a system.
However, some dealerships might have installed third-party tracking devices as an added security measure. These devices are typically used for:
* Stolen vehicle recovery: If a vehicle is stolen, the dealer can track its location and alert authorities.
* Fleet management: Some dealerships use tracking devices to monitor the location and movement of their inventory vehicles.
To find out if a specific 2012 Mustang has a tracking device, you would need to contact the dealership that sold it. They should be able to provide information about any security features that were installed.
