Does 2012 Ford Mustang have a tracking device that dealers use to find vehicle stolen from their car lot?

While it's possible some 2012 Ford Mustangs might have aftermarket tracking devices installed by dealerships, Ford did not offer a factory-installed tracking system for that model year.

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.
